Nar, Kremlin being a rep from the USSR states or so he would have us believe But all in all, he was a very funny lad when posting on forums
He just up and fell off the planet one day and we haven't heard of him since

Pierre I don't care if your feet fall off from frostbite but you know what we think of booties

Vapors gone, back on my 7m stealth now- just trying to find a board and nah i'm not getting a JP.

About the JPs i was a bit sceptic at the begining before i bought them but now after riding them , these boards hammer and believe you me if i was back in QLD they would be my first choice.

Aww pierre you know I love ya, it's just i'm a one man guy and you had that thing going with vando (oh and mikey)

Yer I know what i'm doing, stealth has less twist which lets me drive upwind a bit better. Once I had the vapors tuned I was happy with their speed off the wind, and they did have enough grunt to get on the plane as they super efficient. But for me I just needed that something extra as at my weight/style/setup I was loosing ground to people once we went onto beam reach unless there was decent wind. That said I know the board wasnt the best upwind so I think it was just a miss match of sail and board. If I wasnt reducing the amount of gear I would've changed boards first and kept the vapors.

Max 2 sec peak: 42,49 kt
Avg 5 best 10 sec runs: 40,86 kt

so, stealth is a one hell of a sail

Yep, I love em once you get all the cam issues sorted. The 08's suit what i'm after perfectly- grunt, stability, efficiency, decent handling due to short boom and awesome acceleration when gusts hit. Hopefully for 09 Mr Naish just improved the cam rotation.

Mark, every time you change your sails, just give the old ones to me, I will have a full quiver in no time

I use licenced GPSResults for myself and for my analysis...

For other people, I need to find some freeware software for gpx, sbp, sbn analysis.

Any help with links ?
