Convertible: A hybrid board = good in Bump & Jump + good in waves but excellent
in none.

----- End Included Message -----

Actually the way Windsurfing Mag describes it is:
Put the footstraps back and its a B & J / slalom board
Put the footstraps forward and its a wave board.

Sortof on the subject: Anyone know much about the Mistral Edge? (And how it compares
to the Electron? ) Yes I realize one is considered a high wind slalom while the
other is a convertible-- but what does that mean for bay sailing?
