Equipment » Why Club Mistral?

 

First class Equipment in all Club Mistral Centres!

Masts

We guarantee in ALL our stations 75 % carbon masts on ALL rigs under 6,0 m² & 100% carbon masts on ALL rigs above 6,0 m². Simply the difference between frustration& exhaustion and some early planning long-lasting ecstasy...

Sails

Probably the widest range of sail sizes offered on the market:
From 3,7m² to 8,8 m² in most schools, sometimes smaller or bigger according to local wind conditions, as well as kids & junior rigs (2,6 m² to 4,2 m²)

Fin Pool

Having the wrong fin for a given board + rig combination reduces performances by up to 40 %... and at least as much of your pleasure on the water. Every school gives you our guests the possibility to change fins and have the perfect equipment combination in all circumstances.

Private Boom(s)

On most destinations: no more hassle to adjust your harness line length every time you change your sail, we change or cut the harness lines of your boom at the beginning of your vacation. All booms are equipped with a light up haul line, a boom protector, and reduced oval diameter for your comfort and better rig handling.

Mastplates

All mast plates are given out with a protector: saves your feet, saves your holidays on the beach ...

Wetsuits & Harnesses

If you have got your own harness and wetsuit we recommend to bring with you!

The centers have spare wetsuits and harnesses at no extra costs but only for prebooked guests and the availability is limited. Some centers rent as well surf shoes and flotation vests (subject to stock availability and amount of lessons happening).

Board & Sail Range

The full Mistral board range and North Sails range are represented in all stations, and therefore probably the widest possible offer of equipment to be tested by our guests on the world market.

Footstraps

Foostraps are changed regularly and antislip is redone as soon as necessary in all stations...
Ever tried to snowboard without bindings or to play the violin with boxing gloves ? It isn’t much worse than windsurfing with bad footstraps and a slippery board under your feet and we don’t like it !

Change Equipment

As always, the highest possible ratios of change equipment per prebooked guest (we are talking about NEW boards, and sails of the year too – not about decoration boards & simulators or out-of-a-museum sails).

Trimming

Rigs are, with or without booms on, always perfectly trimmed ! Who could possibly enjoy playing music on a badly tunned instrument ? Beside, since 3 years now, North Sails is the only brand worldwide to offer the revolutionary Harnessline Trimming System, which guarantees us a longer time and more fun on the water, whatever our level is.It changed our lives, and it still does.
