The Dedicated Windfoil Sail:
Building on the successful design of its predecessors, the Skyscape 2021 is a testament to Loftsails windfoil dedication.
The 2021 models have increased aspect ratio and decreased head sizes. These changes – when combined with updated vertical shaping and horizontal profile values – mean that the Skyscape has once again raised the bar for foil freeriding.
The Skyscape 5.8 6.4 and 7.0 sizes retain their moderate width mast pockets, 5-batten 3-cam configuration, and soft leech twist character.
Skyscape 8.0 and 9.0 sizes stay with their Blade-type mast pockets, 6-batten 3-cam design, and firmer leech twist for more race-oriented performance.
Features:
- Tekcam2 camber inducer design – easy rotation and gentle to your mast
- SDM and RDM mast compatibility. Tekcam2 Large (installed) and Reduced (in sailbag) included with sizes 7.0 and smaller
- Metallic cam interfaces MCIs eliminate contact point degradation characteristic of cam designs without MCIs
- Tubed batten structure – solid stability for the upper end of the wind range
- X-ply batten pockets that alternate sail sides… using similar material for the batten pocket as the body material minimizes the asymmetric character of applied batten pockets. Pockets made with laminates allow the batten to be centered. These features combine to maintain rotation symmetry. In contrast, same-side dacron pockets promote asymmetrical rotation
- Blade mast pocket construction – pocket sides under the tack pulley webbings for rotation ease, clean mast pocket and longevity
- Kevlar strip applications – profile definition, mast pocket stability and longevity
- Durable IYU250 4-part mast pocket – the perfect material between your mast and the elements
- Trim: leech-release reference logo to dial in trim

Loftsails
Windsurfing has reached another dimension, flying on a foil above the water's surface.
Sails for foiling are best light, with low end grunt and superior upwind character. The Skyscape design package includes 5 battens with 3 cams and a low outline configuration.
Skyscape's sail profile exhibits pronounced forward orientation, increasing the low-end grunt needed in light winds to pop up and go. Softer and more forward-oriented batten systems with a slightly firmer leech perfectly match the more front-foot oriented stance associated with foiling.
In 2019, Loftsails introduces the Skyblade, a foil sail for racing.
