A cat design is by Mike Drummond, I don't think melvin had anything to do with it. The A cat frame is also one piece carbon fiber as the pylons would be also, so with the exception of looks they are nothing alike.Bad comparison, but it appears your just trying to get your post count up, so fire away with the mis-information.
One of the frequent critiques of the Hobie 16 is that the the hobie 16 pylon platform design
looks dated! A carbon version of the same basic design in 2012 must be noted...
Face it Todd... Hobie can make a very strong case for the Hobie 16 with spin as instantly getting more countries into the Olympic game. Surf city even noted that Nigeria has a Nationals...
Don't be surprised if despite all of the negativity... they are a strong contender in the room.
