Formula carbon boom: it’s all about the stiffnes

For big formula racing sails then demand an extra stiff carbon boom, these allow you to transform the power from the sail to you board. The combination of the extra thick wall in the front section of the boom and oversized back end piece makes the stiffest carbon boom on the market today. Formula extra wide: Our Formula carbon boom is extra wide for using with deeper profile sails. We find it produces more power.

Back end

The width of the tail section has got to match each boom size and its use. A wider tail end generates more power, but for greater control, a narrower tail is recommended. Our Slalom Slim boom has a narrower tail width to give greater control. Our Formula Extra Wide tail width increases to 29cm, this allows to reduce the outhole and makes the sail profile deeper.

How to choose the best boom size?

We recommend using at least a 10cm longer boom than is recommended for your sail. This guarantees the best rigidity and best position of the boom cleat which is located on the backend of the boom.

What boom head should I choose?

  • Maui sails ®boom head for its balanced rigidity, flexibility and endurance.
  • Streamlined ®boom head (SDM, RDM) for its rigid connection between boom and mast.
