The Gaastra symbol is distinctive. It has been part of Windsurfing since windsurfing was invented, and has always been viewed as the brand to beat.
BRAND HISTORY
Beginning in 1897, a young Dutch sailmaker, Douwe Gaastra became known for the high quality of his fine cotton sails. In order to distinguish his products from imitators, he embroidered the outline of the castle-like gate over his hometown canals on all his work. The Gaastra Castle soon became recognized as a mark of quality. The elegant simplicity in design, the finest materials, and the highest levels of craftsmanship guaranteed the company's survival through wars and Depression. Today we hold to the very same standards. Gaastra has its place in history and is here today because we listen to you. We build products created by windsurfers for windsurfers. Nothing less! Gaastra's long tradition of quality, design excellence, and performance is now enhanced by the expertise of Sail Designer Dan Kaseler. | |
