The Link V5 AST L and XO Sails Experience TR EPX Rig is a complete teaching solution for clubs and schools working with beginners and early intermediates. Built to support students from their first steps to their first planing runs, this package offers durability, user-friendliness, and a smooth learning curve.
Stable and Practical Board
The Link V5 provides a stable, predictable platform thanks to its wide, compact shape and full EVA deck pad. Riders of all sizes benefit from easy manoeuvrability and secure footing, while coaches get consistent behaviour for efficient instruction. A built-in nose protector guards against rig damage, and a tail wheel insert option makes transporting gear simple—especially for young or small sailors. A tandem insert at the nose allows shared sessions for introducing children to the sport.
Responsive Rig for Real Progress
The Experience TR EPX rig bridges the gap between entry-level Dacron sails and high-performance setups. Smaller sizes, from 1.0 to 2.5 square metres, come with a durable epoxy mast, but an aluminium option is available for a lighter weight. A deep profile and full battens provide a steady, predictable pull, with trim options to fine-tune performance as the wind picks up. Durable Dacron and PVC construction ensure longevity, while colour-coded sizing helps instructors stay organised.
