These last 2 years there has been a massive attention on the AC-1. In 2013 the AC-1 was THE sail on everyone’s lips as Alberto Menegatti was fighting for first place in the PWA Slalom world tour. A surge of power that made more people than ever looking towards getting their hands on a professional slalom sail.
Within the Black team we have several world class formula sailors such as Alberto Menegatti and Andrea Cucchi who respectively have won the Youth World Title and the Master World title and with both ranked in the top at 5 of many international events over the years.
Many still don’t know where the name AC-1 derives from. However it’s nothing too elaborate but simply the initials and sail number of Andrea Cucchi put together. Point-7 founder, head of development, team manager and the man who last year decided to create a group of young professionals and have them to train together under the name BLACK TEAM.
Andrea in 2013 created the team to prove that a team does have a place in windsurfing and can help riders to train more effectively and achieve better results than when training individually as has been in the norm for the last many years in our sport.
Which sails is it that are making people talk?
Is it the race sails that the pro riders are using in PWA? Is it the 3 batten wave sail which Adam Lewis used to finish top 10 at the PWA in Sylt and Tenerife, or is it the sail that you use?
Time to go for the new Sweet!
This is what is missing in Windsufing, and this is what we are bringing. The Sweet is the first introduction of what we will be the future of more products for our Sweet side of windsurfing. It’s not made for girls but for windsurfing girls who know what they want, look for freedom and show their tough side!
AC-1 Formula Windsurfing 2K13 development: Built in Italy.
Andrea Cucchi ‘Personally I love formula windsurfing. Formula was big at the time I was at the top of the worlds rankings. Still now even if I’m not sailing everyday on the Formula board, it’s just amazing how everything comes back in few minutes. Feeling the same motivation and challenge as those times, where all the pros were on Formula Boards battling each meter upwind. The feeling of how the board planes over the water is great. This feeling will keep this discipline alive! Could be that thecome back is around the corner. In some countries it never died, but in others it had slowed down due to the slalom hype. We believe in it, we love it and we will push for it full time. ‘
