Check the Jan/Feb Windsurf or Boards (can't remember which), as they have a review of 2 of the Severne wave sails compared to most others.

From memory one was the "classic", which was bombproof but not too high performance. They other was a sort of competition model, and they raved about it. Check out the articles - these mags are still in some newsagents or I'm sure someone you know would have a copy.

If your after wavesails they've got some reviews on their website under tests. i have a 5.7 s1. This is the competition model. It has a very light build using lots of monofilm and not much reinforcement. The performance seems pretty good to me although i haven't had mcuh experience with other sails of the size. i find it can handle a lot of wind but doesn't have as mcuh low end power as i would like at times. it feels good on a wave for it's size though given the choice i'd always like to be on a smaller sail.
