Monocoque Tapered Boom Body Aluminium Essentials 160 Unifiber UF012010400

Description:

The Unifiber Monocoque Tapered Boom Body Essentials 160 is a high-performance aluminium boom body designed for adult windsurfers seeking a durable, lightweight and precise handling option. Constructed from T8 alloy monocoque tubing, the boom minimizes play and delivers long-lasting stiffness for improved sail control and responsiveness. The tubing is tapered to a reduced 26 mm diameter in the harness line and grip area, giving comfortable, energy-efficient hand positioning and reducing rider fatigue during extended sessions. Its modern outline with a slightly wider tail balances strength and aerodynamics, making it well suited to wave, freeride and slalom-racing sails. The modular "Configure Me" concept lets you combine, renew and upgrade components over time, increasing versatility and service life. Overall this boom body prioritizes reliability, low weight and precise control for both recreational and competitive sailors.
