I am looking forward to using my new genoa made from the Flex material. Based on an earlier thread in this list, I went to Haarstick as well. As Sylvain describes, the cross cut construction methods used make it a great cost effective option for higher end sails. I found the price right in the middle between Dacron and a North cruising laminate molded sail. I do plan on racing with it, replacing some aging UK Tape Drives that came with the boat. I dealt with Steve Haarstick himself, who spent a great deal of time with us on the phone going over options and explaining his philosophy. He helped me overcome my hesitation with dealing with a loft halfway across the country. So far, I recommend the service, the sail is in the basement now ready for hoisting once the snow clears around here.

You may want to check for FlexP, made by Dimension-Polyant, it's multi-directional fiber make it unnecessary to cut a sail in tri-radial fashion so they build it cross-cut and the saving made because of that make it interesting for a high-end cruising laminate. They do win several races though, and they tested the new material for 2 years.
