With the news of new cheating in cycling:

Any cases of doping/cheating in windsurfing?

How about expensive carbon battens for an idea?

I am sure that Fez has an electric motor in his board....he can plane with an 80 litre board when I'm struggling with a big kit...

I heard a rumour that JP puts some sort of "powered rotor" on his fins to get massive airs.

There is a picture of it somewhere.

Grab one of these or the use the guts of one of these (

)
Stick it in a large slalom or course board and you can plane in zero knots. Slap a ISAF Approved Series Production Board sticker on it and you will be good to go racing... :-)
