2010 SERENITY
In 2005, when the Serenity concept was first revealed to the World by Windsurfing magazine USA, development work by windsurfing brands and media exposure on light wind windsurfing and longboards no longer existed. The industry had only just started to get the hang of wide-style boards, those new designs that have helped windsurfers the World over to plane in less wind. Planing windsurfing was all there was for windsurfers to read about, talk about, preach and practice.
"The Serenity aims at ultra-light winds and cruising, and puts a modern spin on the simple elegance that helped windsurfing boom decades ago. It doesn't require a jumbo sail. It doesn't require pro-level skills to enjoy. Best of all, it doesn't require real wind for an exhilarating ride. Simply hop on, sheet in and go. In this regard, the Serenity succeeds, and succeeds in a big way. In terms of growing the sport, putting more sails on waterways everywhere, and offering everyone a form of windsurfing that's all the time and all fun, the Serenity provides a valuable wake up call." Eddy Patricelli, editor of WindSurfing magazine
Serenity set the course for the next chapter. Its concept of an uncompromised, lightwind-only hull shape measuring 460cm desgined for the modern age of windsurfing created shockwaves through the industry. It paved the way for longboards to make their return and ever since then, lightwind windsurfing gradually grew and grew.
