I was there to witness it all, short-boards, footstraps, clamp on booms, rotational rigs, retractable centre boards, monofilm sails, and a few evolutionary mistakes like cutaway rigs and anti-cavitation slots in skegs. And I still own quite a lot of the history - I wish I'd kept my old original Windsurfer and Bic 210 - I'm sure they're now design icons in some circles.Originally Posted by Bigger Andy
I've noticed that modern boards are fatter and modern masts are thinner. Now you've got me going down memory lane I think I'll hire a board on holiday - I'll take my trusty Tushingham harness from 1989.
