I noticed that too; suddenly exclusively VMGs.

Any more info on this? Matty, your third sentence is borderline unreadable.

Back in the late eighties/ early nineties, there was at least one windsurfing company advertising "laminated sails." ... No sewing ... Apparently, at the time, it was fabulously expensive...
