Could anyone provide performance details on Ezzy Freeride sails. How do the 2009, 2010 and 2011 compare![]()
Thanks
Sorry. Any comments would be appreciated on the Ezzy Freerides and not necessarily perfomane details. I am only a freeride sailor of intermediate (2 years) experience. I have only used Neil Pride Solo sails of 7.5m, 6.5m and 5.5m. I am considering the Ezzy Freeride sails as I think their durability would be better than the NP solo sails which are monofilm.
Hi Jeffrosail,
I have had a few Ezzy freerides. A 2008, 2009 Infinity (2 cam) and now a 2010 model. Great sails. I know it's often said but the Ezzy's do have a good wind range. You can easily get away with 1-1.5m spacing if your trying to keep kit to a minimum, depending on water conditions of course. Very easy sails to rig. Excellent build quality. The 2010 models feel lighter in the hands, probably due to the new materials now being used.
Another thing I should note is they sell quickly when wanting to upgrade. All of my previous Ezzy's sold quick, another brand I couldn't get rid of.
I've had two quivers of Ezzy wave sails, but only one freeride (2009 infinity).
It's awesome. Truly amazing wind range, especially if you've got an adjustable outhaul. If they came in sub-6m sizes I'd get another one for speed sailing as well.
Get one, you won't be disappointed ![]()
Hi Jeff,
Got a full quiver of Ezzy Freerides 5.0 to 8.5 in half increments,oldest 2009.
Extremely well made and very durable, built to last a long time.Quality second to none.Quite a large windrange for each sail. Sets with a deep concave shape without the use of cams.You cant go wrong with these.
Just to clarify my quiver of Ezzy sails are 5.0,5.5,6.0,6.5,7.0,7.5 and 8.5 haven't got an 8.
Usually i sail with a metre more than the missus but sometimes we are only half a metre apart.
I'm using a 2010 7m Freeride for my Futura. I then drop down to a 2011 5.5m Ezzy wave on my 94 litre FSW board. Then down to a 4.7m Ezzy Wave on my 86/94 FSW board. I also have a 6m NP sail in there which rarely gets used but I have only just picked up a 106 litre Freestyle board and will be using the 6m with that.
Thanks Guys for all of your comments ![]()
I will look at getting the Ezzy Freeride sails (7.5 & 6.5) rather than the Infinity. At this stage 2.5 years is all i have been on the water so will look at Infinity sometime in the future.
