The new 2025 VENOM-X celebrates the 10th season of S2Maui’ s iconic f l agship race sail and also symbolizes its evolution to the new P W A Slalom-X discipline. The 2025 VENOM-X is built upon Artur Szpunar and Barry Spanie r ’ s legacy of design experience and optimized for winning performance in modern P W A Slalom-X and IFC A Fin Slalom disciplines. Designed with massive horsepower for instantaneous acceleration and limitless top speed, the 2025 VENOM-X accelerates out of the jibes and blazes down the straights, helping you f i nd the quickest way to the f i nish line. The VENOM-X is also a lethal weapon for speed and with that in mind, we have added a 4.7 size, which rigs on a 370 RDM, for those record setting days. S2Maui is 100% dedicated to provide the ultimate performance race sails that allow riders to achieve their goals. W ith 2 historical P W A Slalom W orld championships to its credit as well as IFC A W orld Championship titles, it ’ s inspiring to see our new generation of S2Maui VENOM riders growing into similar success. In 2024, S2Maui VENOM rider Justine Lemeteyer achieved V ice- W orld Champion titles in both P W A Slalom-X as well as IFC A Slalom-Fin. T alented young S2Maui VENOM rider Lohan Jules achieved an incredible win at the ’23 De f i W ind ( W indsur f i ng f i n) and followed with a career f i rst top 10 f i nish in Slalom-X at the 2024 P W A Fuerte. W e also want to recognize the success of our great team of national riders around the world who have claimed multiple championships in Japan, France, Holland, Greece and the USA.

2025 VENOM-X DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE FEATURES • TURBO LEECH TWIS T PROFILE: The 2025 VENOM-X has a newly updated leech twist pro f i le which starts further down, allowing for smoothe r , more progressive opening in the mid leech while maintaining correct tension in the head. This improved mid-leech twist acts like a turbo, channeling the air f l ow across the sail, increasing acceleration and also top speed. • INCREASED HORSEPOWER AND ACCELER A TION: Slalom-X requires strong acceleration out of jibes and also after navigating obstacles. As a result of the T urbo leech and updated pro f i le, the 2025 VENOM-X produces more power and gives mind-blowing acceleration. • LIGHTER AND MORE RESPONSIVE: The 2025 VENOM-X increases the use of our exclusive superlight and strong T echnora™ Spacelight™ in the leech, reducing weight and promoting faster and smoother leech response in gusty conditions. “Light-Film” is used in the upper sail bod y , further reducing weight and maintaining a “direct feel”. This combination of materials give the VENOM-X the light and responsive feel helpful for maneuvering at jibe marks, chicanes and navigating Slalom-X obstacles. • MAXIMUM VELOCIT Y : The 2025 VENOM-X , with its slippery 3-D shape, re f i ned leading edge, turbo leech twist and pronounced leeward pre-bend geometries is our fastest ever and has what it takes to dominate in the straights!. • CONTROL, BALANCE AND S T ABILIT Y : The VENOM-X ’ s exceptional balance and stability together with incredibly smooth responsive leech twist and power delivery give the rider full control and the con f i dence necessary to push the limits even in extreme conditions. 2025 QUALITY CONSTRUCTION DETAILS • Superlight and strong construction using advanced superlight, low stretch T echnora™ Spacelight™ in the leech and multiple thicknesses of f i lm. • Multiple, full length vertical lu f f panels lock in shaping and resist stretch from downhaul loads. • 2x Premium quality INOX clew eyelets with leech abrasion reinforcement • Removeable, light weight “VIPER CLIP” clew pulley • “Light T ip” upper battens with custom f i ttings designed.
