So if the class went to the new sail, the shape would be the same not the material tough?

Please read the current issue of Sailing World.
*US Sailing has also just started the US Youth Development Team (or called something to that effect) which main purpose is get take the best of the youngsters and promote them for the Olympics and get them to regattas. So far, I think it is only in Lasers and Radials
Just got the Sailing World in the mail this afternoon. I'll check it out.
If you read what Tracy's written on the subject, the class membership strongly resists "game changing" developments in this area, but is willing to consider minor changes that would be targetted only at improving durability. I would take that to include changes to the sail shape.So if the class went to the new sail, the shape would be the same, but not the material though?
Persistence may pay. Publishing constant and relentless demands for a decent product may just cause the builders to provide that decent product.
The from reading other sailing forums like SA I have gathered that main thing that stops people from joining the laser class is the fact that to be competitive you have to buy a new sail very often.
