GAASTRA VAPOR AIR
Vapor AIR 2026
PWA Slalom-Racing FOIL Weapon
The Vapor Air 2026 redefines foil racing performance with a complete redesign focused on speed, balance, and control. Building on the success of the 2025 model, this latest evolution combines cutting-edge materials with a new outline and refined aerodynamics to deliver even more stability, efficiency, and agility around the marks.
A completely new construction with Project 85 Aramid Technology UPE laminate in the mast sleeve and batten pockets sets a new standard in racing sail technology. This ultra-light, low-stretch, and highly durable material increases responsiveness and profile stability while minimizing overall weight. The implementation of a Color Monofilm foot panel further lightens the sail, resulting in a more reactive, balanced feel and improved handling.
For 2026, the Vapor Air has been completely redesigned with a new outline featuring a shorter boom and lower clew, as well as updated luff curves, profiles, and batten configuration. The result is a performance boost across all aspects, optimizing aerodynamics, improving control, and ensuring an efficient, forward-driving feel with enhanced acceleration and top-end stability.
The slightly refined sizing in the larger sails – 8.0 and 7.3 – ensures seamless performance across the entire range, maintaining ideal balance and control no matter the wind conditions.
The result is a sail that keeps all the strengths of its predecessor – early lift, effortless handling, and smooth rotation – while pushing speed, control, and agility even further. The Vapor Air 2026 represents the pinnacle of foil racing evolution, giving you the confidence to accelerate, fly, and maneuver faster than ever before.
