David Ezzy
The Taka is our hard-core wavesail. Every few years, the sail’sevolution makes a leap forward. Thisyear we were able to reduce theweight so much that the new 4.7weighs as little as the old 4.1 Taka.And we changed the vinyl window toa low-stretch, dyneema enforced filmthat better transfers gusts of windinto board speed and also makes theTaka more stable in high winds.
Like in previous models, the newTaka has 3 full battens and a 3/4batten that allows the sail to luff,which means that it de-powers whensheeted out or rotated into the wind,making the sail go completely neutralin maneuvers.
Wave sailing is our heritage, and the Taka is the expression of our passion, built for everyone that loves the feeling of bottom turning and flying above the lip’s spray.

Quality is our strenght
In 1983 David Ezzy made his first windsurfing sail under the Ezzy Sail black and white eagle logo. He started his custom sail business on Maui in an old shed that has since become a sleek design loft. Back then, custom sails were the means to success for every serious sailor and Ezzy Sails led the sailing revolution. Ezzy made sails that were renowned for their “Hookipa” traits: strength and power.
Now the Ezzy factory is housed in a 20,000 square foot, brand-new building in Srilanka owned by David Ezzy and the factory staff. It is a safe, non-toxic work environment with state-of-the-art computer cutting machines, employee amenities such as a staffed kitchen, transportation, uniforms and a music sound system. The distribution reach of Ezzy Sails has expanded to cover most countries worldwide. Word of mouth spreads the knowledge of the high quality standards behind the name Ezzy and the company continues to grow.
