Flexible, High Performance, Lightweight Foul Weather Gear | Gul, Atlantis, SLAM

Flexible, High Performance, Lightweight Foul Weather Gear
Whether a weeknight "beer can" race, one design keelboat racing or the America's Cup, buoy racing is the most common of racing formats. Typically taking place on protected inshore or near-shore courses, gear in this category is designed with the athletic keelboat sailor in mind. This gear features lightweight, flexible, highly breathable fabrics, athletic cuts and relatively minimalistic features so as not to encumber a sailor's ability to get from rail to rail quickly. It also features significant protection against wind, spray or the occasional squall.

This category has a myriad of choices, making it possible for anyone to get the proper gear for sailing or racing. Musto's LPX line utilizes Gore-Tex's Paclite Shell to be one of the lightest hi-tech options on the market while their MPX Race line uses Gore-Tex's Pro Shell to make an ultra-reliable, high-performance garment with a true racing pedigree and their unique stretch panel in back for increased movement. The RC (Russell Coutts) line from SLAM is a lightweight hybrid range that utilizes its namesakes numerous years of racing experience to pack in all of the little details and refinements.

Designed to enhance your racing experience, the KB1 Racer line from Gill uses their lightweight and highly durable 3-layer laminate to ensure your comfort and freedom of movement. GUL's Code Zero line also has a waterproof stretch back panel for extended range of movement and provide the most flexibility in this category. The Aegis Line from Atlantis was designed to cover the broadest possible range of uses from dinghy sailing to the Bermuda Race, with attention still being paid to the little things to set the line apart. And last, but certainly not least, is Henri Lloyd's popular Shadow 2G range -- it's ultra lightweight, breathable, waterproof and ideal for around the buoy's racing.
