Banzai Max 2 Pro Carbon

Pro Carbon

  

World Cup Control Wave

Keynote

Banzai Max 2 Pro Carbon is the pinnacle performance expression of the Max platform—built for maximum stability, shape integrity, reflex response, and composure under load.

Intro

A stable, powerful, and composed wave sail built for riders demanding ultimate control through gusts, overpowering wind, and changing conditions, the 5-batten platform delivers a calm, centered pull with exceptional stability and drive. Best for powered sailing, variable conditions, heavier riders, and sailors wanting fewer sail changes with greater control across a wider wind range. Power when needed. Control when it matters. Defi Wind, IWT and PWA World Cup approved.

Available in 3.7 / 4.0 / 4.2 / 4.5 / 4.7 / 5.0 / 5.3 / 5.6 / 5.9 / 6.2

Feeling

The Banzai Max 2 Pro Carbon delivers the most stable and controlled feel in the Banzai range. Instant acceleration, centered lift, and exceptional reflex response create calm, neutral handling with powerful drive and outstanding top-end confidence. The result is maximum range, stability, and speed with exceptional control under pressure.

Speed

The fastest of the Banzai range due to its unmatched stability allowing you to reach top speeds with more control. The perfect blend of blasting speed with wave agility. Warp Carbon technology keeps the sail shape even in the biggest gusts meaning even more speed and control.

Description

The Banzai Max 2 Pro Carbon carries its lift slightly higher and more centered, promoting an upright, neutral stance with strong drive and controlled power delivery. The 5-batten layout increases overall stability while refined twist, lowered draft positioning, and a lower clew improve balance and top-end composure. A unified twist profile improves load distribution and preserves stability through gusts and changing conditions. Banzai Max 2 Pro Carbon stays locked-in and composed when the wind spikes while maintaining responsive handling and maneuver-oriented freedom. Pro Carbon is the pinnacle performance build way within the Goya range. Developed for riders seeking the highest level of responsiveness, shape integrity, reflex response, and control under load. Premium carbon laminates preserve the designed profile deeper into powered and demanding conditions, delivering faster response, cleaner release, and exceptional composure when performance matters most.

Outline

The Banzai Max 2 shares the same outline as the Banzai 12 which features a larger foot outline and a lower clew, keeping the sail anchored around the rider for increased control and stability. A reduced head outline lightens the sail in the hands, enhancing its neutral, effortless feel through every turn. The 5 batten layout increases the overall stability of the sail, especially in demanding conditions.

Agility

The sail remains balanced and composed when fully powered while preserving fluid response and connected handling through maneuvers.

Highlights

Carbon Radial Stretch Control

Carbon Radial Stretch Control further enhances stability, reflex response, and range by integrating low-stretch carbon tendons into the sail structure. The result is a more connected and precise feel with improved load retention and cleaner energy transfer.

Custom taper CNC Battens.

Lightweight, CAD shaped, CNC machined, ultra durable, custom thickness and tailored taper battens. Adding structural perfection to the material sophistication of our film panels.

Circular leech

The Circular Leech Outline concept delivers additional power, especially in the larger sizes where efficient drive is critical. Increased chord length through the midsection creates more usable power while avoiding excessive boom length, head size, or foot area. The result is a sail that combines strong low-end performance and range with a lighter, smaller feel in the hands during powered sailing and maneuvers.

Construction

What began as targeted carbon reinforcement evolved into a complete structural philosophy centered around reflex response, load retention, and precision under pressure. Ultra-high-grade carbon laminates minimize elongation and maximize reflex response. Carbon stabilizes the sail profile while preserving immediate energy transfer and crisp release under load. Warp Carbon / Aramid foot panels minimize stretch and help maintain sail shape in this critical high-load area. An additional carbon strip below the foot batten further stabilizes the foot panel under load. Nylon pulley rolls reduce weight and friction. The result is lighter handling, cleaner acceleration, increased stability, and a highly connected feel between rider, sail, and wave.

X-Ply Carbon Body Panels

1.5 mil Ultra low stretch linear Warp Carbon fiber laminate yarns arrayed to control load lines in the sail combined with super strong Technora Aramid X-Ply. Refined material orientation improves reflex response and energy transfer while maintaining composure through gusts, transitions, and extended use. Durability is built into the structure through carbon X-Ply body panels, reinforced foot materials, protected seams, and carefully controlled load paths. The goal is long-term confidence in handling, structure, and consistent performance. X-Ply Carbon also effectively prevents tears from traveling.

Main Window Panel

6 mil Bi-Ply from Dimension-Polyant uses dual PET film layers for improved flex, softer feel, and reduced creasing. Integrated UV inhibitors significantly increase longevity compared to traditional monofilm. Black Window Frame. The black window frame minimizes reflections and distractions for the clearest possible vision through the sail. Form follows function, and it has become a defining and unifying visual element across the range.

Poly Clew System with Aramid attachment

The Poly Clew System allows riders to fine-tune power, control, and maneuverability without changing sail size. The aramid attachment point provides exceptional durability with minimal weight.

Details

Nice to have. Nice to know.

4-Batten Platform

The lightweight 4-batten layout keeps the sail fast, reactive, and highly maneuverable while maintaining impressive stability and usable range across changing conditions.

Proprietary Ripstop Mast Sleeve- Double Stitched

Around the main window, providing torsional strength, increased durability by reinforcing key load zones and blended transitions between different panel materials.

Warp Carbon Foot, tack and center luff Panels

2.0 mil Warp Carbon film combined with super strong Technora aramid X-Ply yarns for increased puncture resistance.

Tack Fairing.

Molded and stitched, this ultra durable tack fairing offers protection for your board and feet, aerodynamics around your extension and a place to store your downhaul rope. Made from abrasion resistant textile, it even protects itself.

Folded Sleeve Edge.

Along the rear edges of the mast sleeve, preventing fraying and premature wear and tear.

Sleeve Opener.

At the top of the boom cut out. Makes sliding the mast into the sleeve that much more quick and easy.

Anti-Chafe Batten Ends.

Protecting the batten pocket leech ends of your sail when rigging on rough surfaces.

Tack Stitch Protection.

Safeguarding the tack area of your sail against stitch breaking from rough board textures.

Hanging Loop.

Lets you hang your sail to dry, or tie a rope, or stick a screwdriver to pull the mast when derigging.

Soft Foot Piping.

Protecting your shins during tweaked maneuvers on wave sails, and your sail against the board deck on flatwater sails.

6:1 Stainless Pulley.

Stainless pulley with ultra lightweight friction free Nylon rollers for an optimized power ratio.
