Product Description This all new entry level board from Mistral is designed to make windsurfing fun and easy from the first moment you step on the board. It has a soft deck for the ultimate in safety and comfort, multiple footstrap positions, and a fully retractable daggerboard. It's definitely one of the easiest boards to learn on that we have ever used. For the same price Mistral also offers the "Trance", which is the same board without the soft deck, making it a bit lighter and more performance oriented.
