Gaastra Poison 4.7 - Windsurf (UK) :
"The
Poison provides plenty of instantaneous power...sharp, direct feel in
the hands. This energy can be used to devasting effect, driving into
the turn and becoming completely neutral as sheeted out...Recommended
for heavy/aggressive sailor, with masses of useable power on tap.
Verdict A well engineered sail, the Poison provides an involving,
energetic and direct riding sensation, with the capability to fulfill
any high wind role.
Gaastra Poison 4.7 Surf (Germany),:
"If
there was an “everybody’s darling” at a wave sail test, the Poison
would be very high on everybody’s list. A very balanced mixture of
riding behavior and control, Dan Kaseler’s Posion design convinced us
it excels in any conditions."

"The 2008 Poison keeps you ripping on any wave. It’s light and nimble enough for the smallest rider, yet it carries enough grunt for the bigger guys. Powerful and solid, the Poison always promises a killer ride.” -- Ross Williams
“The ’08 Poison is the best edition yet. Shaping revisions move the draft forward putting the power directly into your hands. Bottom turns and high wind blasting, the 08 Poison is agile, yet potent in the lineup.”
