Nice job. Far better than I could do.
Bits I like are the roo board / sail and team name. I prefer the stars on the other one but agree with Birdman about the crowding.
As my doctored photo shows any image looses a lot of detail when scaled down.
So should we have the team name?
Here are some more play about images

The middle one has potential.
The one above looks like they're going backwards!

I noticed the GPSTC team name change a few days ago. Nice.

If we are voting again, are we considering the original batch and this one, or only this one?

If both batches, then #2 of the original batch.

If only this batch, then for me, the first one under the black one.
Just a small adjustment on the streaks as they are not in sync.
The streaks on the Roo should be at the back not the front. The stars too are steaked both ways.

I personaly would like the team name on.

Also, if Severne are sponsoring, we could add: " Severne Sails are Good"

Picky picky picky I know, but all the Roo's legs look funny, and not funny ha ha, but funny peculiar for a Roo in flight. His legs need to be bent and more under the body in balance.
The stance he/she has looks like he is stalling out.
Looking back UP how Mark has super imposed on his sail, (its at an angle I know,) but the Roo looks about right at that angle, and his stance looks OK

That's it, the bottom one, legs are just right, in proportion top to bottom and at right angle.
Windxtasy, how do you transpose them legs onto the Roo in the emblem?

just the legs?
Onto the emblem above?
I can do it on paper, no idea how to do it on the computer.
The legs need to be somewhat stylised though I think. You wouldn't want the big claws would you?
And you'll notice the body position of that roo is at quite an angle compared to the other. I'm not sure that leg position will work with the more horizontal body position, and I'm not sure the more angled position will look winswept enough.
Tell me what you want and I'll give it a try
or maybe someone more savvy with a computer can...

No idea how to do this, maybe Toby.
Can you fatten up the thigh muscle lines down to hinge point so they look something like the photo,? and bend them a bit more forward at the hinge point? was what I was driving at.

there, I (finally) transposed the legs for you.
Is that what you were after?
btw the "hinge point" is called the hock.

I thought you just had to have a windsurfer and a heart beat to be eligible to join the Pinnaroos

Just for comparitive purposes

Quantas 1944 logo (I like this one) and I think the roo in the logo is looking more like this (and better)



1984



the first one reminded me of the one on the australian penny (and yes I am just about that old).

One like this one (with the roos legs "fixed") gets my vote (or Birdmans above)





But I dont know about the mechanics of what is possible, would a transparent "outline" with the color on it work - so that its one large shape to stick on and the printer could do the fine line work ? And perhaps the crisper lines in Birdmans would be easier to get printed ?

You can tell there has been no wind for a while. I hated art at school
Toby, I do wonder where you looked to get that photo?! No. I don't want to know.

Toby is clearly better with graphics programs than the rest of us, but I love all this input. See what you've inspired Toby? Even a name change. When we find a combo we are all happy with perhaps Toby could finalise it for us.

I have had the comment that the logos are all a bit staid though, and rather like qantas logos. Perhaps we should think outside the box and try something completely different. Something very stylised.

Hey, they are getting a Pink logo. Ours should also be Pink.

Then instead of turning Pinnas to Pinnaroos, we could have changed it to Pinks.
