Silver hd 7075 high tech aluminium silver the more affordable version of the gold rs, also manufactured using the bonded.Technology (cannot be dismantled), is now manufactured from 7075 high-tech aluminium, known from the bike sport. This material makes the arms 30% stiffer than ordinary aluminium tubes and gives the new silver hd a huge plus in durability. We are so convinced of this technology that we give 2 years full warranty, even including bending!
The SILVER HD consists of 4 segments and has a one-piece alloy tail end and is of course also equipped with the innovative iFRONT head. Features such as flex adjustment and length-specific RDM tubes with a 28mm or 30mm diameter (starting at 1.80m) combine super-high rigidity with great comfort. The short lengths up to 1,60m feature an ergonomical new school bend curve so that both hands remain an equal distance from the centre of the sail, preventing the front arm from being overstretched. A total of five boom lengths with a refined specific bending curve are available, making the SILVER series perfectly for all sails from Wave to Freerace.
