Floppy Leech
Design attribute built into modern performance sails to make them more controllable and responsive to fluctuations in wind strength. When a gust hits such a sail, the leech (the trailing edge of the sail) twists open to spill excess wind. Sails designed specifically for light conditions will have a tight leech to make the most of the available wind.
