CATALYST ULTRA Ultralight New School Radical Surf Camille Juban used the Superlight CATALYST ULTRA to dominate in the lightwind down-the-line Pacasmayo surf and win last years PWA/IWT Peru event! The2026 CATALYST ULTRA’s development goal is to make the lightest and strongesthigh performance 3-batten wavesail possible and the results speak for themselves.The CATALYST ULTRA reduces weight to incredible new levels. At only 85g/square meter and featuring a 100% Dyneema™ (High Modulus Polyethylene,world’s strongest fiber) woven core, S2Maui’s ULTRA-HMPE™ laminate is theabsolute lightest and most tear resistant sail cloth currently available for windsurfsail construction. The 2026 model has evolved to be even lighter, more responsiveand more durable incorporating 2 exciting new materials, Carbon 2XD™ in theclew and the extra-durable ULTRA-HMPE™ ”Hot Yellow” in the foot panel. TheULTRA-HMPE™ material is warp oriented and load aligned with S2Maui’s WARPPATH™ panel layout ensuring perfect tension distribution and a stable profile. Toensure long-term durability, we use an X-ply rather than film window. On the water,the performance sensation of the CATALYST ULTRA is mind-blowing. It retains allthe agile, responsive handling, stability, power and drive that make the CATALYSTa champion’s sail, but with the incredible, “lighter than light” weight it virtuallydisappears in your hands while surfing the wave. Camille Juban: “I’m happy to help with development of the exciting CATALYST ULTRAmodel. Working together long term with S2Maui allowed us to give all our experience tocontinue to improve the ultralight version of CATALYST. It’s everything that I like about theCATALYST, maneuverability, responsivemness and reactivity plus the ultra lightness thateveryone would want from a sail.“ Artur Szpunar:Projects like this get me excited: No compromise high-performance design, superlightweight and strength with the latest cutting edge materials. The reward is in the amazingexperience that this sail provides on the wave!
