From the new-to-the-Puffin blog Hit the Wave comes this tremendous post… a fantastic collection of windsurfing board catalogs, not only from brands I know (F2, Fanatic, Mistral, Bic, Tiga, RRD etc) but from over a dozen I’ve never or only barely heard of (Windspeed, Ten Cate, Star Surf, Sainval, Pacific, Oceanite, HiWings, Magnum, Klepper etc…too many for me to list.) A must to check out. The post isn't new (originally published 2011) but it's new to us!

Great that Dimitris’s blog is getting more love. He’s a super nice guy. I’d like him more but he lives in such a wonderful place to windsurf that I’m way too jealous (just kidding).

wow….i remember seeing ‘Klepper’ in the catalogs way back when.

It’s nice to see my effort to save memories of vintage boards being appreciated!
William, I hope one day we will sail together, no matter where. -
