My $0.02...

I have been sailing for 12 years, and here is an idea of
how long I have had my boards...

1997 - ??? : probably ASD or Forsyth
1992 (late) - 1997: ASD Course/Slalom board (green top)
                            - sailed 30-50 times per year
                            - unfortunately, board delamed from water
                              going in through mast track
1988 - 1992: ASD Slalom Bay (glass board)
                   - sold this board, and my understanding is that
                     this board still is being used at 3rd today!!
1987 - 1988: Fanatic BOA
                   - sold ... too slow
1986 - 1987: Seatrend 9'1"
                   - had delam problems
