The core of this furler is the introduction of exclusive Sail Bearing™ technology that lines the torque cable with numerous High density polyester bearing balls.
Each of these grooved Sail Bearings run freely around the cable allowing the sail to gather and deploy smoothly without binding or "reverse furling" SPINEX also utilizes all the unique design benefits of the recently introduced NEX system including the I-Connect one-button attachment system and Quick Fit furling line engagement for easy deployment and storage.
