Return Policy
We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return.
Return Fees:
- A 5% restocking fee applies to all returns
- Original shipping costs are non-refundable
- Return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility
To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition as when you received it: unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You'll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
To start a return, contact us at support@unifiber.net.
Returns should be sent to:
UnifiberPhantom 14
5126 RJ Gilze
Netherlands
If your return is accepted, we'll send you instructions on how and where to send your package.
Important: Items sent back without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
Important for International Returns
If you are located outside the European Union, please be aware that:
- Return shipping costs to the Netherlands can be significant (often similar to original shipping rates)
- Any customs duties, taxes, or import fees incurred during the return process are your responsibility
We ship from the Netherlands. International customers should factor in potential return costs when ordering, as these can be substantial for destinations such as Australia, North America, Asia, and the Middle East.
When We Cover Return Shipping
Unifiber will cover return shipping costs and waive the restocking fee only in the following cases:
- You received a defective or damaged item
- You received the wrong item (different from what you ordered)
- The product does not match the description on our website
In these cases, contact us at support@unifiber.net with photos and a description of the issue. We will arrange and cover the return shipping.
Damages and Issues
Please inspect your order upon delivery and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged, or if you received the wrong item. We'll evaluate the issue and make it right.
Exceptions / Non-returnable Items
Certain types of items cannot be returned:
- Custom products (special orders or personalized items)
- Sale items or gift cards
Exchanges
The fastest way to get what you want is to return the item you have. Once the return is accepted, you can place a new order for the replacement item.
European Union 14-Day Cooling-Off Period
If your order was shipped within the European Union, you have the right to cancel or return your order within 14 days, for any reason and without justification.
Please note: A 5% restocking fee and return shipping costs apply. Original shipping costs are non-refundable.
To qualify, your item must still be:
- in the same condition you received it
- unworn or unused
- with tags
- in the original packaging
You'll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
Refunds
We will notify you once we've received and inspected your return and let you know if the refund has been approved.
If approved, you'll be automatically refunded to your original payment method within 10 business days.
- Please note: A 5% restocking fee will be deducted from your refund. Original shipping fees and return shipping costs are non-refundable.
It can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.
If more than 15 business days have passed since we approved your return and you haven't received your refund, please contact us at support@unifiber.net.
Effortless uphauling with your body power
The HD Effortless Uphaul takes the strain out of lifting your rig. By connecting to your harness, it lets you engage your entire body weight instead of relying solely on arm strength—making uphauling easier, smoother, and far less exhausting.
Designed for energy-saving performance
This smart uphaul features an elastic rope system that holds the line snug against the mast when not in use, preventing drag and avoiding tangles. When you need it, the harness connection gives you a natural mechanical advantage, promoting better posture and reducing fatigue during recovery.
Whether you’re just learning or managing a larger sail, this tool helps you stay balanced and conserve energy—so you can focus on enjoying your session, not recovering from it.
Why windsurfers choose the HD Effortless Uphaul
- Harness-assisted lifting – Uses body weight for easier, more efficient uphauling
- Elastic retention – Keeps the uphaul secure and out of the way while sailing
- Less fatigue, better posture – Promotes safe, energy-efficient technique
- Ideal for learners and big rigs – Especially helpful with large sails or early-stage skills
- Tangle-free rigging – No drag, no snags, no extra hassle
What to keep in mind

The loop may swing slightly while planing, which some riders may notice
For beginners and longer sessions
Whether you’re still building confidence or handling larger, cambered sail setups, the HD Effortless Uphaul is a must-have. It helps you lift with less effort, conserve energy, and stay focused on the ride—not the rigging. From your first haul to the last tack, enjoy smoother starts and longer, more enjoyable sessions.
