Skimbat
All you
need is skis or skates, a little wind - and the SKIMBAT Wingsail.
Sail with the SKIMBAT and the sky is the limit!
Windsailing
with the SKIMBAT is like windsurfing on ice or snow.
Weighing just a little over five kilos, it folds down to 1.8 m so you can
carry it along with your ski equipment
in your car and be ready to wingsail in a couple of minutes.
We've kept
the weight low and the strength high using fiberglass reinforced plastic tubing
in the frame
and drawn aluminium tubing in the battens, which withstands extreme stress.
The sailcloth is made of light polyester,
which lets you wingsail at temperatures below -20 C if you can stand it.
The SKIMBAT has been thoroughly tested on river and lake ice in the mountains of Finnish Lapland and on frozen lakes in North America.
The International
World Ice and Snow sailing Association awarded the SKIMBAT Wingsail its "Best
Desing" award in 1994.
Try it once - after that you´ll long for "The Endless Winter".
