Is it true that foil board will replace the current board(RSX) in olympic sailing?

And why best windsurfers(PWA) dont sail in olympic windsurfing,why this this branch of sport is so under
appreciated?



Because the RSX is a **** compromise of a board. Somewhere between a race board and formula, and does neither well. It would be like racing at Bathurst in a Mazda CX9.


A better comparison would be racing on a V8 car with a 3 tonnes trailer attached to it.The RS:X is actually a good board and the proto tested by ISAF was at 12 kg, the production board is 19 kg...
