Here is a quote from the "Mainsail Instructions" that came with the sail.

"Foot Tension - turning to the foot of the sail, the sail is cut to reach the
outhaul band with sufficient outhaul tension to close the shelf in the foot.
This may mean that the outhaul has to be pulled quite hard because the
rope in the foot of the sail is tight and must be stretched."

It has a shelf at the foot, therefore it is a shelf-footed sail.
