Surprising comment from pierre.d:
Only beautifull designs are working well ... have you ever seen an unattractive sailboat performing well ?
On the other hand: The AK47 is one of the worst gun design (as far as beauty is concerned), but it is well known as one of the most effective for its purpose.... :o

For me, beauty is not a finality in a "tool" design, as it is not related to efficiency at all.
For your information, if you want to challenge your judgment, I know that a few samples of the Sigma serie kites has landed in Britanny for testing and demos these days. Try to find where they are going to be launched (along with the new 2008 boards range) and let us know what you think of these "beasts" in real life. :thumb:

I may try/see/touch one tommorow ... it does not change the fact they are ugly.

If this is a confidential info, it should be handled confidentially. Just accept it.
Many of you already saw it anyway, so look it up yourself but please don't share it until it is officially.

And never forget: I'm responsible for the content, if I get told to remove something confidentially, I have to do it. It is written in the European law.

Thx for understanding.
There is no new information whatsoever so it never can be confidential....

One of my buddies tried the Sigmas today.
His first report via SMS said that there is no weak point, only improvements versus 07 SLE/Bow. Some have almost the "Torch feel".
He is totally stocked. :D
Very promising...

It seems that Naish is going to have a great year 2008.....

No pimping, I mainly ride Cab, for the moment...

Well, I guess, this is just a matter of your personal taste, I think AK47 looks great (but please make sure yours is not made in China :bye: )
