Gaastra website for Vapor Technora 2009 Performance:
Lighter then monofilm, and lower stretch... Nothing can lock in sail shape better then stepping up the skin material. The lighter total rig weight reduces inertia, and increases breakneck acceleration. At the same time the low stretch aspect makes sure profiles stay locked and loaded.
Gaastra website for Vapor Technora 2010 The 2010 Vapor is available in a standard monofilm model as well as a high performance PWA registered Technora Laminate model. Constructing an already superior sail of this futuristic materiel raises it to the pinnacle of windsurfing technology. The 2010 Vapor Technora Laminate remains entirely unmatched.
Gaastra website for 2011 - Sorry guys it was not right!? Monofilm is better!
I'm a Gaastra fan. I'm not a pro but I also sail monofilm and technora Vapor sails more than 100 days in a year.
Not particularly different in performance. I would say maybe not better but also sure not worse. They are lighter, much more durable, resistant, and nicer. A unique feeling to roll and sail this material instead of monofilm.
And also very distinctive for the Gaastra Pros and their image.
Which is then the right answer?
1) New designer P.M. do not like Technora
2) Not enough Technora sails sold - costs too much.
3) Technora was only a marketing decision -
4) No Technora now is a marketing decision.
Sorry. Very disappointed about this change and not only about this."
