The Loft Blade FR 2011 is an original Formula Racing design that includes exclusive characteristics....

The Loft’s exclusive Internal Batten Tensioner System (ITS):
This new Racing Blade feature results in a lighter, smoother, more reactive and aerodynamic leech.  The batten tensioners are moved  forward, just behind the mast for improved rig inertia.  The ITS combined with new reduced diameter carbon tubes, and the Racing Blade Pentex upper body panels results in extremely light upper rig weight for overall better performance.

Blade mast pocket construction: 
Equalized loading between the mast panel (interior) and the pocket (exterior). The result is tensioned, firm mast pockets that rotate with an ease that must be experienced to be believed.  
Durability is also augmented with the Blade mast pocket construction.

RDM and SDM mast compatibility:
Blade FRs are equipped with both Reduced (Rdm) and  Large (Sdm) Tekcams. Simply switch your Tekcams- both mast types are compatible with all sizes Blade FR 2011.

Features:

• 4 RDM Teckams (simple, functional, light, adjustable, durable), all sizes - See illustration
• Alternate side batten pocket application
• Stepped x-ply application (Tri-ax Kevlar foot panel, tri-ax 5mil lower panels, 4mil bi-ax upper panels and mast pocket sides, 5mil bi-ax mast panel)
• Molded thermo-foam mast/board pad with line pocket, uphaul port and roll-up strap
• Soft molded pvc foot edge. Micro-molded pvc foot 2ply and cross-batten protectors
• Sensitip head batten system
• Internal Kevlar strip applications that define shape profile and maintain shape stability - vertical and horizontal (at cams) orientation
• Blade mast pocket construction: mast panel AND pocket sides (3 elements) tensioned directly; equalized loading- firm, clean, easy-rotating leading edge
• Metallic cam interfaces 
-Loft batten tensioner-  Dyneema loops x2; one each side (from bottom to top).  Tension is loaded equally to pocket and sail body.  This centers the batten tension, equalizing batten dynamics and making the sail body symmetrical regarding rotation
