{"product_id":"unifiber-switchblade-2026-27","title":"Unifiber - Switchblade 2026\/27","description":"Few sails can claim a legacy as enduring as the Loftsails Switchblade. Born from the high-performance DNA of the Racingblade, the Switchblade channels that pedigree into a more approachable freerace 3-cam profile that delivers relentless acceleration and effortless speed.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003eFor 2026, the Switchblade evolves with a host of refinements that sharpen its performance and durability. A higher aspect ratio with shorter booms creates a lighter, more agile feel, while re-scheduled luff curves and batten angle re-orientation improve balance and lower the sail’s centers of effort and weight. The updated slimmer profile shaping and a slightly lower foot add even more drive when powered up, making the sail feel locked in and efficient across a wide wind range.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of the Switchblade’s stability are tubed battens, proven to deliver the stiffness and reflex typically reserved for competitive racing designs. The new 30% lighter TekCam 3 system further enhances cam rotation and accommodates higher batten angles, supporting the sail’s refined shaping without sacrificing smooth rigging or handling.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003eDurability steps up to another level for 2026. New 5 mil foot panels and a reinforced 50mm triple-sewn mast sleeve seam withstand years of hard-charging freerace sessions. The mast pocket is slightly wider and redesigned with 2mil quad-axial laminate side panels, helping to shave weight, especially when wet. The full X-Ply body construction continues to deliver proven strength and longevity.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003eThe Switchblade range remains available in two construction variants. The standard build features 5.0 mil foot panels, a 4.0 mil X-Ply central window, and 4.0 mil bi-ply upper body panels. For riders who demand extra resilience, the HD version combines the same 5.0 mil foot panels with a 4.0 mil X-Ply central window and 2.0 mil quad-axial laminate upper body panels. The Switchblade’s head panels use dual-layer Dacron to improve roll-up ease and enhance long-term durability. A 5.0 mil Kevlar-reinforced laminate clew panel now extends from the clew up to the batten above the boom, prolonging sail life both on the water and in the sailbag.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003eFinished in a clean, functional minimalism graphic for 2026, the new Switchblade is more than a freerace engine. It’s a refined tool built to thrill session after session, year after year.","brand":"Loftsails","offers":[{"title":"5.3 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061152074,"sku":"LS060040540","price":1069.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.3 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061184842,"sku":"LS060040470","price":999.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.8 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061217610,"sku":"LS060040550","price":1098.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.8 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061250378,"sku":"LS060040480","price":1029.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"6.3 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061283146,"sku":"LS060040560","price":1129.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.3 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061315914,"sku":"LS060040490","price":1059.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"6.8 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061348682,"sku":"LS060040570","price":1159.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.8 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061381450,"sku":"LS060040500","price":1089.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"7.3 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061414218,"sku":"LS060040580","price":1179.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.3 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061446986,"sku":"LS060040510","price":1109.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.8 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061479754,"sku":"LS060040590","price":1209.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.8 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061512522,"sku":"LS060040520","price":1139.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 m2 \/ Blue","offer_id":62967061545290,"sku":"LS060040600","price":1239.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 m2 \/ White","offer_id":62967061578058,"sku":"LS060040530","price":1169.01,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/9394\/9258\/files\/6890b23f298fc18be58e0000.jpg?v=1786830394","url":"https:\/\/recharge-store.com\/sl\/products\/unifiber-switchblade-2026-27","provider":"Recharge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
