"the colours"of the sails,windsurfing
stood outwith the change to monofilm windsurfing became camouflaged and sails have become bland.
I used to remember going down for a sail years ago and could count everyone out sailing with ease nowdays it's very hard to spot anyone out on the water.....bring back the flouro greens/reds/blues it would brighten up anyone's day.
For sure, most windsurfing sails are boring and almost invisible. There are some noticeable exceptions. Severne sails look nice, how the colour fades out over the sail. North sails are also quite visible. When monofilm sails came out in the early to mid nineties, windsurfing became an invisible sport.
It would be great if flouro wetsuits to make a comeback too.
