http://www.recreationalcomposites.com/Lightningfins.htm.

Can't believe these were left out. At least half the weight if not more than most fins, if not all. Thinner, lighter=faster. Faster, way lighter than my Techtonics Mirage that is same length, similar shape. Made in the U.S.

There are also Gorge Animal boards and fins, Grandall fins, the Stealth board, Booms from Hale, Watson boards, Sheldon sails, Rutger boards, Dynafiber masts and booms, Pacifico (from Costco), Logosz boards and fins, Magnum boards, and MANY more ... and that's without even looking into my windsurfing gear test magazines from the '80s and '90s, which listed scores (maybe hundreds?) of brands.

Ha-ha... this is GREAT Smile

How about "Gorge Technology"... awesome mast bases (a few years back Smile
I know there are guys on here, who had these!
Where is Pat D. (owner, designer, and Nukin' Gorge sailor) these days?

And I see X-booms... I don't remember those.
And then, I see Z... but there's nothing after it?
Are we talking about the famous "Z-Booms"? They were quite big for a while. Supposed to reduce carpel tunnel because of the tube geometry.

Oh yeah... and you should change one thing on your list, just slightly.

"Up"... should be "UP"... and really, you could just write "Ultra Profile". That was the name of Bic's hi-end sail and accessory brand.
Ultra Profile Sails - And it also said UP on the sails. But for your list, I'd say Ultra Profile.

I know there was a hang-glider company called Up... but that's different than Ultra Profile from France (Bic's sail brand).

(I still sail my UP sails in Seattle and the Gorge... quite often Smile

Pat D. was a moto x'er. He suffered a significant and debilitating injury quite a few years ago while riding which rendered him paralyzed.

Guess Who. Some of the most beautifully finished polyester boards I have ever seen. The custom graphics were flawlessly detailed.
