Favourit project:

Nice call. I do not really have a favorite project. I like all of them, because I can see the challenge in it. I really like to work with the sailors, find and understand their needs about sails, sailing styles, conditions. Under this, all the projects were favorites.

1D Inside - Chat with the CEO

A little Q-A with our CEO, Panka about 2015.

Favourit project:

The Formula16 sail optimization before the Europeans. It was a tough project, but we did it in time and its result was visible immediately. I could move on the white table for the last time in this period because of my baby bump ;).

1D Inside - Chat with the Loft manager

A little Q-A with our loft manager, Deni about 2015.

Favourit project:

For sure,  the Optimist project. The road from the talking to the first generation sails was a great fun. It is a continuous work. We started the designing process with my experience from coaching, I was fully involved in the testing and tuning process, so I feel this project very close to me.

It was a great challenge to compare the materials and designs. Small boat, big challenge.

4th February - 1D Loft 2 - intro

This post is a little bit different, as we have our birthday. It happened exactly one year ago that the One Design Sails brand reborned after several decades of rest.

I have started to work with sails - I can say- a long time ago. There was a point, when everything had a turn into a much higher state. This point was 4th February 2012. On this day, I met with Pablo Soldano to make more deeper our work together. 

It was a really great meeting and something started to change.

Let's start

We have started our professional blog. 

As we wrote our thoughts on Facebook, it was hard to find them later. We found out to write the professional thoughts on a different site. 

You can read about the projects we are working on, about our and ours sails’ results, and about some dilemmas, problems we face during some special projects and how we will solve it. 

I hope it will help to see more into our “backstage” and our every days work.

Have a great reading,

Marton
