price. They come with a fun guarantee, backed up by years of windsurf
experience. These boards have proven their worth in all sorts of
conditions and their versatility has been well noted in all the magazine
tests. Made from Thermoformed Glass Composite, they've got great
stiffness and even better resistance to knocks.

construction absorbed the chop...held it's own in speed and early
planing...excellent upwind pointing...well balanced stability,
durability and attractive price...silent smooth ride...kept pace with
higher priced opponents. Best suits: Novice to advanced sailors looking
for a forgiving light air board that leads the fleet."
Bic Techno 118 - Windsurf (Uk)
"Smooth and easy to use...providing the intermediate sailor with masses of room for growth...Superbly
stable and forgiving at idle, in marginal conditions...a fantastic
performer, making the most of every gust available. One of the quickest
onto the plane in this group, its acceleration is incredibly smooth and
measured...performance range more than comparable to its sandwich-constructed rivals, it comes at a price that is hard to beat."

Gaastra Matrix 6.5 - Boards (UK )
"very
clear favourite from this test...we very strongly recommend this sail
for any recreational freeride sailing and drag racing...great feedback
and power while retaining easy handling, good top end and
maneuverability...very impressed with it's real competitive edge over
it's rivals without sacrificing comfort in any way...faster and more
comfortable for blasting and maneuvering than opposition...excellent
acceleration and top speed...extremely forgiving in heavy chop...allows
very easy maneuvering of the board and goes neutral for easy
handling...it is the first time for several seasons that we tried a
no-cam sail that seems to move the genre forward a notch....best
acceleration, always fast. Impressive"
