I reckon Sado is a good name. Think "Sado Masochisim"

Sean, the song was way before your time in the first carnation of Johnny Farnam. "Sadie the Cleaning Lady" was his first hit in 1967...


John Farnham wrote a song in 1967?? That's like.... a long time ago. And yes, Sado is short for sado-masochism ;-) The slogan for the sail is "Dominate the Wave". hahaha.

Point 7 is killer design. Cant wait to get them. You have any yet Sean? Everyone who bought one this year has been most impressed with the quality and performance. Btw, we have just secured BIC sponsorship for a Queensland BIC Windsurf Racing Series this season. Will start in October, runs every 8 weeks. Will invite all classes (formula, RSX, slalom, Techno, perhaps even One Designs?) There will be free workshops leading to the event and on days of the event too. Can you help run a few of them Seano? We got a number of international riders coming in and out this season, in a week, Cheung Hao from Taiwan, Lloyd from the Hong Kong team is already here (studying law at UQ), Azam (S'pore) is coming in November. Who says windsurfing is dying? :)

Yep. Just rigged up a 3.3m Sado 2G to put up on the ceiling of the P7 office here in Italy. They look sweet. Built super tough. Also we rigged up this new Kid's sail we made based on the new Sado's outline but modified for lighter riders and to fit on the tiny RDM masts/booms we have.

It's called the S!ck cause it looks sick.



Full details here - point-7.com/

Great news about the BIC Series. I'm out of the country till 1st December but after that I'm back all summer and super happy to help out; are you running more events after November??

that kids sail looks great

do the designers know that the "good" sick is actually spelt sic? The Italians created the "fully sic", but the greeks wanted to call it "fully shick mate"
