it is clear that I do not know the English language
sorry!
I mean
I believe that the chances should be equal for all athletes and builders to participate in the Olympics.
I can not confront the production quantity of RRD and North
not for this I have to be cut off
I must have time to grow as they have had their
or the Olympics are already assigned?
is already written who should and who should not participate?
if you create a law does not harm anyone.
I hope to be wrong
but my impression is that these boards are scary
please tell me I'm wrong

In the UK the Naish Venturi 70 wide is easily available. It's an IKA registered shape & remains the same for the 2013 season. I've just picked one up, after riding Sectors for a while, and I'm surprised how easy it is compared to the older race boards I've tried in the past (Nomad, Aguera 59). I can actually ride this fast down wind :thumb:

It does seem a little heavier than some race boards, but I'm thinking that should give it good long term durability. Question for the guys who have been on this board for a while - What fins work well on this board in lighter conditions? Im about 76kg & we ride in fairly choppy conditions in various wind strengths. Supplied fins are 38cm fronts with a couple of degrees of cant, back is 36. I guess they are what makes the board easy to ride & will be good for when the wind picks up.
