Thanks a lot Jem, we are waiting more videos by your signature teaching skills. Too few people have the stage stance that you have. Salutations from Republic of Turkey.
Your English politicians are just like they are from the magazine Mad. No future plans, no vision at all, but those zombies just repeated BR exit BR exit BR exit. You normal Brits can't help it. Trade and good contacts will survive, why not? Europe sucks, but no European community sucks even more. We will let the poor countries drop dead, won't we? We prefer a selfish Europe. All countries must ignore they do need foreign markets. We should hate all the other countries. We are stupid. Shortsighted. That's why Brexit is possible. But again, you can't help it. Your politicians are to blame. If you don't like those power games (France vs Germany vs UK is classic), you could fight that stupid power game. Try diplomacy, try to emphasis our mutual interests. Those exist! Giving up on Europe is completely understandable, but still, it is too easy. Things will grow worse without the UK in Bruxelles! Don't you agree? Now get your boom sorted. Who needs this boom video anyway? Off coarse you set your boom right. Or you will suffer.
What is the ideal "starting point" for boom height, ie., a good place to start from which you can adjust up or down for power or control? Does it make a difference if you are using a longboard or a shortboard?
When waveriding your boom should be about your chest height, because you want to get low on a bottom turn. But if you want to freeride or do anything else you should put it more about at your shoulder height. Your height doesn't matter as a reference point.
Let me guess. Too high is not okay. Try it. Too low is not okay either. Haha, don't even try it. Conclusion, the reight height is in between and it feels best.
Well of course too much of everything makes no good. When waveriding you should put it at your chest height to allow yourself to put the sail lower for a bottomturn. Freeride or freestyle probably higher around your shoulders so you can get planing more easily.
First of all: boom is a Dutch word. Boom means tree. Why do you nautical English folks keep using our Dutch words? Use your own words! Start calling your boom your tree. Why not? Never thought about that?
