Mistral Pacifico Stand Up Paddle Board 2 in 1 Fun 1
It seems the team at Mistral have been busy again developing this new two in one paddle board concept. From what I can see its an EVA deck board that you can put a sail on for some light wind fun, or use with no sail on both flat water and in waves as a stand up paddle board. COOOL!!
I could have done with one of these a few times sailing at Tide Mills in Seaford when the wind swings offshore and drops leaving some nice waves in the bay to play on. I reckon you could get a lot of use out of a board like this, plus I guess it has a fitness benefit as well. At least in terms of getting you on the water rather than eating pies and drinking coffee hehe

Mistral Sign Marcilio Browne From Brazil
Mistral have signed a new young team rider Marcilio Browne. I found an interview with Nik Baker, Mat Pritchard and Marcilio about his new deal with Mistral and Gaastra on boardseeker.com. From the pics I have seen this guy rips hard I expect we will all be seeing a lot more of him in the future.
Its great to see that windsurfing has a bright future with guys like Marcilio pushing the sport to new limits and keeping the interest in our beloved pastime alive.
If you haven’t tried windsurfing before you should definitely give it a go. Not only is it a great fun sport that helps keep you fit but its also a great lifestyle where you can make a lot of new friends, plus it gives you many excuses to travel the world to the many fantastic destinations offering perfect conditions to play in.

TEST-LEADER Mistral Beast 76 (Surf Magazine 1-2/2007)
Well it seems after a string of fantastic results in the waves during 2006 Mistral has pulled out an amazing wave board for 2007. Below is a summary of the German Surf Magazine test article copy from the Mistral website.
Article from Mistral News
level: expert / wave
ranking:
- Radical Wave riding
- New School Jumping
- Extreme wind & wave conditions
Conditions: waves and high wind
Construction: Carbon-Kevlar sandwich
Shaper: Mark Nelson
Key features:
- Shorter in length and revised outline for new school skate style
- Totally revised bottom shape – new single to double concave hull (similar to modern surfboards) for increased wave riding performance
- Deck channels for increased strength
- Revised Swallow tail for aggressive turns Nose chine on the bottom for water redirection, and control in radical maneuvers
- New Air Pod Footpads

With the Beast 76 Mistral has developed another high-performance Waveboard. Based on the Worldcup Shapes from Nik Baker & the Brasilian Young Gun Marcilio Browne they have developed in co-operation with Mark Nelson the greatest Waveboard on the Market.
Great Acceleration, the board provides you with an ultimative kick. Once you push the edge when doing an bottom turn, it push you so deep into the wave, it feels like standing in a barrel ! There has never been a better waveboard on the market than the Beast 76.
Summary of the German SURF MAGAZINE: A Board which feels home in all kind of locations, either Klitmöller, Sunset Beach or Hookipa.
