Reply to: New main

[quote=wlrottge]That square weave is most likely a DP Dacron as mentioned above; funny enough, I just received a new light air Dacron jib (similar material, but lighter) for my T on Friday from Landenberger. Relative to mylar/pentax/cuben/etc. Dacron is quite a bit more "stretchy" and won't handle the kind of loads that one of the other sail cloths will. In the end, the Dacron sail will loose it shape more quickly than the other materials, especially if pushed harder/used in higher wind conditions. Not to mention, shape is more important in light/medium conditions, while being able to flatten the sail is more important in a blow. Waxrules, I "might" have an older T-sport main that was cut for an aluminum mast that I might be willing to sell.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by wlrottge on Oct 17, 2016 - 04:49 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
