I have carefully read the 5 tender documents, and It’s now clear that we are unfortunately on the way to do same mistakes we did before … and even worse on some aspects.
I even would say that the process of selection for the upcoming discipline characteristics (equipment, formats, rules) is directly resulting on these mistakes. As long as selection will be made only by professional users (racers and country representatives) voting on brands projects, we have very few chance to connect the real windsurfing world, that is made by retailers, distributers, clubs, federations, weekend sailors, media, advertisers etc.
