they changed from hyde to Neil pryde last year. They are meant to be the same shape just red rather than orange.

Yea the shape is the same its just a different material and different coloured tape. I think they look nicer and personnally think there quicker than the old hydes. They were legalised after the 29er Worlds in 04 so they have been around for a while.

Hang on a sec... you sail a yellow boat with a purple spinni, your helm (or was it you?) wears a psychedelic tie-dye pink and white rashvest and you'd like more orange in the sails!?!?! Would you be colourblind, by any chance?

It was an ACCIDENT!! Don't blame carshalton, or even Mrs Mummy Carshalton: the poor lady has got TWO boys like Luke to look after... and that's without mentioning their dad!! 

Still, that white and pink is SO your colour, CFC. I think you should get your Mum to style and exclusive range and make it your L4k's uniform. At the end of the day, Alex's sarky comments only show he's jealous...

Leave him alone! He's not a sheep, he's a leader! He's proud of his opinions and not scared to be different
Quite an achievement for one so young  Go Luke!
