The Banzai Surf 2 Pro Carbon delivers the lightest, most neutral, and most maneuver-oriented feel in the Banzai range.
Instant acceleration, centered lift, and exceptional reflex response create effortless flow and highly connected wave feel.
The result is lighter handling, cleaner depower, and maximum maneuver freedom through critical turns.
Available in 2.8, 3.1, 3.4, 3.7, 4.0, 4.2, 4.5, 4.7, 5.0, 5.3 square meters.
Easy acceleration and efficient drive make it simple to move around the break and find the best position on the wave. The Banzai Surf 2 carries speed naturally through turns and transitions, helping maintain flow from section to section.
A shorter boom, lower clew, and lower centered lift keep the sail anchored close to the rider for maximum control and maneuverability.
Compared to the Banzai 12 and Max 2, the Surf 2 carries a slightly higher aspect ratio and more compact handling character, creating lighter rotational feel and tighter surf-style arcs.
Updated twist improves top-end smoothness while maintaining immediate release and clean depower through critical turns.
The result is effortless flow, neutral handling, and maximum freedom on the wave.
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.
The compact outline, lower clew, and neutral lift create effortless maneuverability, lighter handling, and flowing surf-style freedom through every turn.
The lightweight 4-batten layout keeps the sail fast, reactive, and highly maneuverable while maintaining impressive stability and usable range across changing conditions.
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.
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.
Ripstop Sleeve.
Around the main window, providing torsional strength, increased durability by reinforcing key load zones and blended transitions between different panel materials.
The sail remains responsive when engaged and disappears instantly when released.
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.
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.
Foot Panels. Warp Carbon foot, tack and center luff panels. 2.0 mil Warp Carbon film combined with super strong Technora Aramid X-Ply yarns increase puncture resistance, 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.
Window Panels. 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.
The Poly Clew System with Aramid attachment allows riders to fine-tune power, control, and maneuverability without changing sail size. The aramid attachment point provides exceptional durability with minimal weight.
Banzai 12.

hi i am contacting you for two questions
the first what mast for your sails constant or flex ?
second with a board 85 liters 57 and 36,5 ofo can I put instead of classic quiver 3?7 4,2 4,7 5,3 take 3,4 4,0 4,7 5,3 ?
thanks a lot
Response:
Aloha Xavier, great to hear from you. My colleague Cyril in France will reach back out to you shortly. All the best, Francisco
La banzai surf est une merveille, j’ai la chance de l’avoir en 5.0 version Iris. Le design est à tomber, je l’ai commandée en 4.5 version pro fuchsia et cela va aller parfaitement, j’espère, avec ma One 3 86 L
J’ai une seule planche et pense également renouveler mon Icon simmer 5.6
Malheureusement la banzai surf s’arrête à 5.3
Envisagez-vous des tailles plus grandes ? 5.5 par exemple ?
20 ans que le windsurf était sorti de ma vie, heureux de m’y remettre avec un matériel de haute qualité et au look/design époustouflant.
All the best
Response:
Hi Gilles,
A huge thank you for your message and for taking the time to share your excitement – it really means a lot and puts a big smile on our faces!
The 5.0 Iris, together with the new 4.5 Pro in fuchsia, is going to look absolutely killer on your One 3 86 L – that color-matched perfection!
Regarding your question about a size bigger than 5.3 in the Banzai Surf: you’re absolutely right, and we do hear that request from time to time. The reason we stopped at 5.3 this year is that the Banzai 11 sits very close by in the range. When the wind gets lighter, we want to give you maximum power and early planing, and the Banzai 11 really shines in that range. That said, we totally get the desire for a perfectly matched quiver!
Your feedback is gold, and we will seriously look into adding a 5.5 (or even larger) to the Banzai Surf line for next year. Rider input like yours is exactly what helps us make the gear better.
Twenty years away from windsurfing and coming back with this much passion – that’s awesome! Welcome back, and thank you for choosing Goya for this new chapter.
Can’t wait to share a session with you soon!
Aloha & wishing you the best winds,
Francisco
In the October 2025 Aloha classic it looks to me that Josh Stone was on an orange Goya sail with orange Goya logo so is this a custom colourway or is it the production "Banzai Surf XPro.Control Surf Wave "? The confusing thing on the Goya website is that it is listed as "Red with Fluo Yellow logos" even though the photographs on the webpage look like orange with orange logos except for the word goya which is yellow. I have seen Goya sails with mostly orange but yellow on luff sleeve and batten pockets and Goya symbol but the colourway i like best is darker russet orange panels and orange logos except yellow word goya. Is there a code for the colourway so you know what to ask for when ordering or maybe there just is a variation in production at factory level ? I have a 2017 Goya Guru 4.5 m2 which has been fantastic and much used since 2018, still good, window still clear. Also great for windfoiling in stronger wind. Tempted to get newer though.
Response:
Aloha Alex, thank you for reaching out and following the Aloha. We had a great time. Our colleague Andy will get back to you shortly with more details on your questions. Yes, yellow is only the writing; the logo matches the sail color. In a nutshell, if you like your Guru, you will love the Banzai Surf's lightness and increased range.
I could use some help choosing the right sail. I am looking for a small sail (like the 3.1 Goya Banzai Surf Pro) to match my existing quiver of boards and sails. This sail would be paired with my 2023/24 Goya Custom 4 Pro 78 Surfwave Quad an used when my 3.8 is too big.
Boards: 2023/24 Goya One 3 Carbon 115 (Thruster), 2023/24 Goya Custom 3 Pro 92 Surfwave Thruster, 2023/24 Goya Custom 4 Pro 78 Surfwave Quad. Sails: 2014 Ezzy Elite 6.1, 2024 Ezzy Taka 8 5.3, 2024 Ezzy Taka 8 4.5, 2025 Ezzy Taka 8 3.8. I enjoy sailing in the waves every chance I get, but also do a lot of bump and jump sailing too. Which Goya sail would be best match?
Thank you in advance for your help! Keep up the great work!
Response:
Aloha David,
Thank you for reaching out and for all of your trust and support of our gear.
Where do you ride?
I see that you also ride a 6.1 sail, so I estimate that you are at least in the 170/180 lbs range. If it is above, I would suggest Banzai 11 3.2. If it is around, then Banzai Surf 3.4 would work. If you are a bit lighter, then the 3.1 would also work.
I know the feeling of being overpowered on a 3.8 and the need to go smaller, but unless you've ridden a 3.1 before and know that's what you want or need, I suggest starting with the 3.4. This sail has a lot more range, as when it is that windy, it is gusting between +/- 10 knots. If your weight is less than 3.1, it would also work.
As important as the sail is, having the right mast is also important, so plan for that as the other half of your decision.
Looking forward to hearing back from you,
Francisco
PVC-
PVC gets cloudy when stored wet, and will clear if allowed to dry completely- this can be done by hanging the sail to dry to ensure air circulation. Avoid unnecessary UV exposure.
Mast-
5.0 Banzai won’t work on a 430 mast because it does not have an adjustable top.
Sail feels heavy when sailing-
I would always recommend people look at downhaul first, then outhaul.
Wrinkles around the batten pockets:
Sign that is missing battens tension. Be careful not to over-tension or it will strain the back.
The most common mistake on sail rigging:
Not enough downhaul.
Not enough battens tension specially at the bottom battens
I have the gurus x for some years now
What is the replacement sail in the range
I want the same control and smooth power
Basically i will buy new gurus and be happy
Juan
Response:
Hola Juan,
Thank you for reaching out and interest in our gear.
I hear you as the Guru was my favorite sail and the one that I used the most, but everything changed as we started to develop with new sail line with Kai Lenny, as he wanted a very maneuverable sail, easy to control yet progressive. So the Banzai Surf line started and every single person that tried them fell in love with it.
For the more power oriented riders like Braw, the Banzai 11 generation is the pinnacle sail and for those that love that 5 battens feel like Boujmaa, the Banzai Max would be the one.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything that I can help you with
All the best,
Francisco
I been sailing another Big brand In many years, wich I like. But from the first time I tried the Goya Surf Carbon I was convinced, that this sail is another level. It is so light In the hands, with good power and so amazing In the waves- I love it, next leves when ridning waves. Best regards Rasmus
Hey Jason,
There is another question, I have regarding my next travels.
I will be going to Mauritius and Indo
Taking only a banzai 5,0 and 4,5.
I need two mast for them, 370 and 400. in those condition better bring spares, adding up to 4 masts.
I thought about mixing mast, taking half a 370 and half a 400, which should fit on both sails.
So I would only have to take two masts instead of four.
What do you think of the idea?
Which parts should I take?
370 top or bottom?
Thanks
Marc
Hi Marc,
I don’t prefer to mix and match myself, but it does work ok, Francisco always rides it like that when possible, example the 4.2 with a 340 top, or the 5.0 with a 370 top.
As a rule you should always put the longer section on the bottom. This keeps the sail more stable overall and with better range than if you put the long section on top.
cheers Marc!
best,
Jason

I'm looking for a sail that I can use for all sorts of waves, slog 5.3 to over powered 3.7, and that can be rigged for Freestyle duck moves (tight leech very little down haul, no flop up top.) Can the Banzai Surf be rigged like this? I tried the Banzai max where that configuration did not work. This works well on my current Sailworks Revos but they have been discontinued, I rig with a looser leech for wave sailing and a completely tight leech for freestyle. Thanks
Response:
Aloha Ryan,
Thank you for reaching out and considering our gear.
Yes, the Banzai's can be used both ways, with a looser or tighter leech. Also, one of our Freestyle riders even mentioned that he feels the Banzai Surf ducks better than the Cypher, so these new sails are shaking the standard.
What is your size/weight?
The only other option that I would recommend would be the Banzai 11 if you are above 190 lbs, as the longer boom does add a bit more grunt.
Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything that I can help you with,
Francisco
Hi Jason, hi Goya Team,
a few seasons ago i remerbered you saying "i love this 3 batten Fringe sail". So do i, but it unfortunatly disappeared from your sail line. Guess most
prefer Banzai, how does the new Surf model compare?
Thank you for Info and best Regards
Rainer
Response:
Hi Rainer,
It is great to hear from you.
When we developed the new Banzai Surf, we considered every concern, including yours about the Fringe sail. The Fringe was Jason’s and sometimes Kai Lenny's favorite sail for riding light wind waves. Banzai Surf addressed all those needs; in the last generation, all doubts were left behind. You can be confident that we have thoroughly addressed all concerns in our development process.
So, to your question, how does it compare? Well, there is no comparison. The Banzai Surf is more maneuverable, with an added forward drive, a higher range, and even lighter weight. There is not a box that Banzai Surf didn’t rated superior to our previous Fringe.
I'm excited for you to experience the Banzai Surf sail. I've seen how much people love it, and I'm sure you will too. If for any reason you're not completely satisfied, please let me know.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Jason is traveling, but I will pass the message on to him.
All the best,
Francisco
HI Pascal,
How are you?
I am in El Medano now and was windsurfing here the last three weeks. I did try the new thruster and I must say that it is an incredible board. Early planing in quite low winds so 4,7 at 18 knots was able to plan. Turning is Quattro style incredible.
I must also say that with the Banzai sail I could sail with 4.2 several days in a row for hours. Before that I was dead in Cabezo after 2 hours on session. Now the combination of this board and sail is unique.
Should I order the new Banzai Pro or Banzai Surf.
Let me know how we can proceed.
Keep on surfing,
Jaka
It's the best sail I have ever used. I ride bump and jump conditions, and it's super balanced, effortless, and forward-driven.
We reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
