LoftSails Purelip 2026/27

With over 20 years of continuous evolution, the Purelip has become the benchmark for uncompromising wave performance. Built to thrive in the most demanding conditions, it excels in waves, bump blasting, and big days.

The 2026 Purelip brings fresh refinements to this proven formula. Higher aspect ratios result in shorter booms and improve handling and reactivity, while rescheduled luff curves enhance control across a wider wind range. Batten angle re-orientation shifts power and weight distribution lower, delivering a lighter, more balanced feel in the hands.

Stability and ease of use remain defining hallmarks. Sizes above 3.7 feature a 5-batten layout for outstanding upper-end stability. New dual Kevlar clew radials maintain profile integrity and forward drive even under heavy gusts, while distributing loads more efficiently for lasting performance.

Durability has been taken up another notch. The new 5mil foot panels and a robust 30mm wide mast panel seam deliver exceptional resistance to wear and tear in relentless surf. The full X-Ply construction continues, along with Loftsails’ exclusive Integrated Panel Concept (IPC) overlaps at the head, tack, and clew for unmatched strength. The Purelip’s head panels use dual-layer Dacron to improve roll-up ease and enhance long-term durability.

The 2026 graphic embodies functional minimalism. By removing excess marker cloth and scrim, the sail’s weight center is lowered and long-term durability improved.

Like all Loftsails designs, the Purelip offers a broad tuning range and exceptional trim reactivity. Two clew eyelets and three micro battens across all sizes let you fine-tune leech tension and maintain leech silence, even when sailing with firm upper-end trim.

While tube battens can snap under wave impact, Loftsails Standing Battens are extensively used in the Purelip, combining optimized forward-oriented drive with superior resilience. From the abrasion-resistant mast pad to strategically placed PVC protectors, every detail is designed to endure season after season of hardcore riding.

Finished with the clean, purpose-driven 2026 graphic, the new Purelip stands as Loftsails’ dedication to top-end stability, reliability, and pure wave-bred performance.
