The Mistral One Design Class (MOD) is a one-design windsurfing class chosen by the International Sailing Federation (ISAF) for use at the Olympic regatta in Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004. Starting with the 2008 Summer Olympics it was replaced by the RS:X class, which was replaced by the iQFoil class for the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Description
The MOD was first designed in 1989. Worldwide,more than 30,000 have been built since. They are light and tough. In the right hands, they can be sailed in windspeeds ranging from 5 to 35 kn (3 to 18 m/s) depending on sea conditions.
The International Mistral Class Organization (IMCO) have established over 50 National Class Organisations.
