Goya Surfsail Banzai Pro (2021) is a powerful yet surprisingly light wave sail for surfers who want to maintain control in changing conditions without sacrificing playfulness. With its four-batten layout, the Banzai Pro delivers direct, linear power for smooth planing and height gain, while keeping the pressure nicely centered for a neutral handshake. The leech opens in controlled gusts so the sail doesn't pull on your arms, and the rotation feels clean when coming off a bottom turn or entering a fast jibe. The low center of gravity helps with water starts and short pump sequences, and the stiff mast trunk and precise panel construction keep the profile tight in increasing winds. Reinforced window and foot zones increase durability when in contact with deck or mast, so you can confidently sail closer to the power of the wave without the canvas quickly fatiguing.
On Dutch water, this character comes into its own. In side-onshore winds you effortlessly pick up speed for the next section; in side-shore conditions the sail feels light and loose on top turns, with enough backhand power to hit the lip when the period is shorter or the chop is unsettled. Small trim jumps in downhaul and outhaul make an immediate difference: slightly flatter for control and top speed on gusty coastal days, slightly deeper for extra punch on lakes and puddles. You rig the sail intuitively on a modern RDM mast; the trim tolerance is wide enough to make your session non-critical, but precise enough to really steer by feel. Those looking for a wave sail that lives quickly, forgives mistakes and still runs hard when it picks up, will find in the Goya Banzai Pro (2021) a reliable partner that will grow with your technique-from playful wave rides to powerful jumps and long, controlled sessions in changeable weather.
