You bastard!

Very nice quiver paddy. One envious bender

That's a helluva quiver Paddy.
You'll love 'em.

I'm very attached to my PD 135.

Patrick, what are the sizes?

Nice quiver Paddy!
Just checked the craphs and it could just be the luck of the Irish?



To be sure to be sure and f*#ked if I know!

Pat how many sails does one need for that range - about 20?

Obelix, I've gone for an unusual quiver, 100 (64.5w), 115 (69.5w), 135 (85w) slaloms and a FSW 102 (62.5w)

I got super nerdy and analysed 180+ sessions and chose boards that will get the most use. The bigger two slaloms were easy, the smaller one harder. As I mostly go to the river a smaller board than 60w only gets used once in a blue moon for me, so gone for some slightly larger than the usual small board choice (87 or 92). The FSW gives me a bump and jump for moderate+ winds or when it's that stupid short , sharp chop.

Wow they've even got your name on them!

They've all got the same typo though. It's got a C in it!!

What's with the colour of the straps in the 115 ??

Hi Sean, well spotted!! They don't have new versions in the shop for the 115 and 135, so I have demos until the new ones arrive.

The colour of the 135 looks close to yours, the other two are lighter. All the same year, maybe they were running low on paint

Would love to get to New Cal, looks fantastic.

Well, I am looking for a few 2013 Combats for this season......?

saw the 128 last week at the beach, impressive cut outs !!!

I wouldn't leave it on the beach, lest a Dalmatian tries to hump it


But I am just jealous of a bloke with 4 x new boards

Great decision on getting the Patriks!
My quiver looks very simmilar to yours Paddymac, with a 92 Trailer Wave
and 92 , 115 and 135 Slalom's!

Hah! Nothing gets by the Chief Financial Officer. This was a fully authorised purchase I used the "mortality" argument for what it's worth. "Babe, I'm 44... how many years of good windsurfing have I got left?? I don't want to wait until I retire to spend some of my hard earned on my one and only passion." Bless her cotton socks, it worked and she agreed!!

Without wanting to upset my *board friends, any particular reason you swapped ?

JC

Nothing against *boards JC, they're awesome boards. They plane super early and are lickety split quick. I just wanted something with a little more bottom shape and a smaller tail for smoother gybing. Control, comfort...all that good stuff.

Mark, next time I'm at Lano you're going to have a go. Last year's visit was a highlight for me, gybes in front of Werner's van, sooo much fun.

Nearly went the 92 Premo! Thought I'd get more out of the 100 on the river.

Hsd a early visit from santa! NICE.
