Nice boom! To my mind booms don't get nearly enough attention when talking about kit - it's all about boards and sails and fins (fins??). But the boom is your immediate connection to the sail - it is through the boom that you feel the wind, the waves, everything. Furthermore, generally one will cover you for most/all sail sizes you might want to ride, you won't outgrow it as you progress, and likely won't break or wear out. That's where you should put your money! If I could take only one item of my own to the beach, and had to make do with the rest, it would be the boom (Goya Carbon Skinny - truly a work of art).

Fully agree! 👍

Thanks, Cookie! As usual, a lot of good information squeezed in-between the main topic. Lines, uphaul, adjustable outhaul, etc. Do you put the adjustable outhaul on both sides? I only have mine on one side but it really helps on the bigger sails.

Adjustable out haul goes on both sides yes… check this out… point-7.com/adjustable-outhaul-set/?q=%2Fadjustable-outhaul-set%2F&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwvvmzBhA2EiwAtHVrbwubIJhhhy1lOtBAuNDbmlE1CCSpTDW11owtptlpLQpqrEGqWUqRwBoCm0cQAvD_BwE&v=11aedd0e4327

Great uphaul tip. I often find my uphaul gets snagged on a footstrap when I'm waterstarting. It's very annoying. I'll try the loop idea next time there's enough wind for small gear.

I love the Enigma carbon booms from Severne. Like you I like the narrow grip. I was really disappointed when they changed the end on the 160-210 to a wave end which isn't suitable for an adjustable outhaul. I had to buy the next size up which is heavier and wider grip. I avoid using it because of that. I'm not looking forward to when my favourite boom dies..( still going strong at 7 years old).. Mmm might have to look at point 7 when the time comes.

@Cookiesports 6 дней назад

Yes yes yes… look into the P7 booms… highly recommend!

@horsemadf1 7 дней назад

Off the subject but the control trips you give - pushing with your front hand etc. Do they work with cammed sails?

@Cookiesports 6 дней назад

Yes yes yes… 100% work on cams too… strongly advise! I’ve got a harness control video coming soon, it shows it a bit more! 👍

Traveling to Santorini. How far to Vasiliki?

@Cookiesports 6 дней назад

Quite a long way… a flight and a drive!

I can see the point of quick release for 8 m2 or bigger sails. You don't want to find yourself under the middle of 8 m2 in dark water. Head for the exit before it comes down on top of you. Half jokingly ; I had a near death experience once, wasn't even hooked in but not sure which way to swim, must have gone the length of it. Ok feel for the battens but not so easy with gloves on. Carry a knife to slash the sail- ok i'm joking.
