Rolly Tasker’s Asymmetric Race Spinnakers are designed for first-class performance on modern fast cruisers and racing yachts.
Rolly Tasker’s Asymmetric Race Spinnakers have been developed by our professional team with a background in cutting-edge sail design, using performance-optimized software. They are constructed to the highest level of quality and are available in 6 different wind range models for the best performance on every course.
Options include:
Code Zero
A close reaching sail built for 5 to 15kts TWS, and a mid girth of > 75% of the foot length. Designed for use in the 50-80 AWA range. Built from purpose designed laminate sail cloth, and includes a luff torsion rope.
A0 – Tight Reacher
A light air reaching sail, similar to the Code zero, with more luff round, large mid girth and a more stable roach profile. Designed to sail a little deeper than the CodeZero, with an AWA range of 60-95 deg.
A3 – Medium Air Reacher
The general purpose reaching sail, design for light to medium air conditions (5-15kts TWS). Can be sailed quite tight in lighter winds, and with the longer luff will project to windward in stronger winds, for deeper angles. Over a range of 75-125deg AWA.
A5 – Heavy Air Reacher
A heavy air reaching sail (15-25kts TWS), allows reaching (85-135deg AWA) in stronger winds, smaller and flatter than the A3. Designed for a fractional halyard where possible, and potentially tacked from the bow rather than pole end.
A2 – Medium Air Runner
The general purpose running sail for asymmetric boats. Design for light to medium air- conditions (5 – 15kts TWS). Generally used for sailing deeper angles, 115-165 AWA. A stable shape, that will fly well to weather of the forestay, and away from the mainsail.
A4 – Heavy Air Runner
Built from heavier spinnaker cloth than the A2, this heavy air running sail is targeted at the 10-25kts TWS range and will fly at very deep angles, 120-165° AWA. A higher clew, flatter cut, less roach and reduced area will result in a more forgiving asymmetric.
Code Zero sails are designed with a straight luff incorporating an anti-torsion rope and a small positive roach for stable trim and easy handling. They can be built out of heavy spinnaker cloth, which is most competitive, or a laminate for more demanding sailors. Race Code Zeros are built out of Dimension Polyant CZ Laminate. The mid girth of Racing Code Zeros is designed to be 75% of foot to avoid rating penalties which does mean a small downturn in wind range and handling but this is accepted by racers because of the advantages in rating.
The Full Radial design is the most popular choice and strongest construction. The radial shaped panels fan out from the three corners Head, Clew and Tack and run throughout the sail. The Tri-Radial layout, which has horizontal panels in the middle, is eligible for smaller sails with lower loads. This construction is less expensive in production because it is easier to manufacture and cloth can be used more efficiently.
Rolly Tasker Performance line is designed for performance orientated sailors who want to participate in racing as well as cruising.
Rolly Tasker Inshore Sails are suitable for smaller boats and are at least factory equivalent replacement sails for most production boats.
Rolly Tasker Coastal Sails are designed for recreational cruisers and club racers who look for a combination of durability and performance for boats up to 36ft. The sails are built in crosscut design, strongly constructed, and finished using High Modulus dacron fabrics to ensure durability and shape retention.
Rolly Tasker Offshore Sails are extremely strong and low in stretch due to choosing the highest quality dacron available. Recommended for sailing coastal, blue water and ocean passages.
Developed by our professional team with a background in cutting edge sail design, Rolly Tasker Sails builds Spinnakers and Code Zeros for different applications.
