interesting piece of equipment. I guess there wouldn't be too many of these around to race against.

Gybing must be a whole new challenge?

Looking from the bottom of the hull The centreboard looks like it is offset?

Centreboard'S Des.

Would be a heap of fun. Just need to talk Remi in to demo'ing one.

It has two centerboards side by side in the picture you are only seeing one.

One for each foot, right!

Could be the new Olympic sport?

Yes, but to get the consensus vote they had to agree that the front rider would fly a kite!!!

family size SUP!

If you follow our news feed on the stuff "in stores soon" on the forum, there you will have noticed a few shots of the new Exocet D2 RS Tandem which arrived at the offices of Exocet Brest ago day! And Thierry Patrice Belbeoc'h rushed to go and test the machine in 20-25 knots and also 8nds

I can see the long centre case in the keel, but where's the top of it in the deck, and the top of the centre board? It does look to me like there are 2 centre cases/boards, but at the angle of the 2nd photo you just can't see the centre case on the other side of the board. The out of sight one also has the centre board retracted. If you look closely, the fin slot is central, hence the centre boardS are not.

Looks like a fun challenge to me.

I thought looking at the first photo that it was a "just look what I just found on ebay" joke !

I love that they had to make a massive well to fit the 2 bolts for the fin. The board is so thick they would have to be 20 cm long !

I am sure that the feeling to sail at the front would be great when on the plane, a bit like on a foil.
