ummm white? lol.

with the exception of the Mystere 5.0 in the top picture, almost all us "regulars" use Tornado racing sails that we get second hand from Robbie Daniels.

The pro's use them for 1 race (or practice) and then we get them (for 1/2 price of new).... they are amazing. The 6.0's don't need to modify them but us 5.5's need to take off a foot...

I think this trend may be over since i think Robbie is no longer racing T's anymore (esp now that they seem out of the Olympics)

boy, that Maine lobster must have been really lost to find its way to the beach in Dunedin... It's good that you put him out of his misery in that pot!
