Une nouvelle Simmer dans les tuyaux.
"Une voile 100 % nouvelle et allégée spécialement développée par les freestyleurs du team, dont Antony Ruenes, 7ème mondial en 2011". http://www.windmag.com/actu-matos-une-n ... mer-tuyaux" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"According to Simmer Style Design Team, the new Simmer White Tip will be a 4 BATTEN RADICAL FREESTYLE sail. Compared with Black Tip it will have a longer luff, smaller head, higher clew position, more shape, shape further back and tight leech. White Tip is now ready and being tested. It will be available in shops in the end of February 2012 in four sizes: 4.4, 4.8, 5.2 and 5.4." http://www.surfadviser.com/news/Sails/N ... TE-TIP,202" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"Martin van Meurs joined forces with Ron van den Berg, brother of Olympic champion Stefan van den Berg, and successful shaper in the past for Bic and many World Cup riders. Ron and Martin Together set up the plan to start up their own Dutch Design Team mXr, which focuses on creating windsurfing products. Simmer recognized their skills, hired them as their flatwater design team and started out by ordering a freerace/freeride range which will hit the market in 2012."
"We took a trip to Tomas Persson, chief designer of Simmer Style. We had a really good chat on our designs, and when he looked at our step hull speed-board, he told us he was interested to set-up a flat water line with us."
"the new Simmer freerace/freeride line, which starts out with three boards will hit the market"
"The new Simmer/mXr boards are pure racing machines designed around the sailing characteristics of less skilled riders who want to have fun in various conditions. Then there is the aspect of the needed fin-length with normal wide-tail boards, and the need for big sails to cope with the forces on modern day racing machines - which again is related to the trim of the boards. The point is that the emphasis of our design isn’t on high end speed or raw power for the super strong, but on perfect control and ease of use in a wide range of conditions. The boards are fun to sail, point as high and plane at least as early as pure racing machines, but handle better with better exit speed after the gybes. They also have better passive planning characteristics. As a result of the design choices we made, speeds can be high, also for the very skilled. I really like to tell more but then I have to get into detail and that takes time. I’d gladly show all models and explain the ins and outs, up- and downsides of the step hull configuration, rockerlines and outlines, so people know what to expect. Be sure the boards are great and will get better and better the rougher it gets."
