I watched this when i was a super beginner. It helps a lot. Now 6 years later I sailed pozo. Thank you for your explanation otherwise i quited windsurfing...
Looking at tips after being stranded in F7 winds today. I didnt realise that my poor downhaul and outhaul settings effected the controlability of my sail soo much. cheers
I wish you would elaborate more on why doing certain things, like why do you expand the boom exentions, why not leave it as is, when using the same sail. Also how much tension on teh ropes and so on.
Nice Video, I introduce people to the proper nomenclature..."rope" is for landlubbers, Line is for sailors...The rope-I think it is the "downhaul"....etc.
It all depends on the manufacturer and a size of the sail also (camber/non camber) But the procedure i ussualy. Open camber pockets Insert Mast Downhaul to the point where the sail is streightenned. Max outhaul Puch cambers in, close pockets. Downhaul at max
It depends, and the range is wide - depending of percentage of carbon, brand name and etc.. Mast ranges from ~$200 to ~$500, boom - $150-$400, sail $250-$650, small parts (extension, base) ~$100. You may get a full set at Isthmus Sailboards for ~$1300. But if you are a beginner you may save a lot of money if you hunt for a second hand stuff, in this case prices may be pretty symbolic.
Turkey. You adjustment was one for heavy one for light. Doesn't explain the first thing about wind flow... Better have been the lottery son... You can stay selling boards.

I bought all my equipment here and still using it to this day.
Thanks for being there. Wish you were still in business
I have watched many, but this one is the best for me. Thanks.
10 years on and it's still a great tutorial. 👍
just did this the first time before watching and I'm glad the sail seems to be always a bit under one side of the mast.
I really appreciate this video. I keep coming back to it. Thanks for posting.
Thank you again for all your help, this is also the best video i have found on line. i ll try it later on today, greetings Ute

Yes. around the number is about right depending on how much of a pocket you want on the sail
super, very clear instructions and views.
Thanks, very helpful

Max outhaul
Puch cambers in, close pockets.
Downhaul at max
Thanks for sharing this! It's been a while since I've rigged one.
The sail will tell you how long the boom has to be right?

great video
Thanks for sharing !
How much would a full rig like this cost?
It depends, and the range is wide - depending of percentage of carbon, brand name and etc.. Mast ranges from ~$200 to ~$500, boom - $150-$400, sail $250-$650, small parts (extension, base) ~$100.

how much did that set up cost?
if i have an 4.5 sail what kinda boom do i need
Minemade you need to check the sail and adjust the boom to required length :)
It should be on the sail as well as the luff length (length of mast.) Probably about a 150 cm boom.
Great video!
GOSTEI DO EQUIPAMENTO, QUANTO CUSTA, COM FRETE PARA O BRASIL FORTALEZA CEARA. 55*85?
How much for that whole package?
leviburtt used without board about 300£ in decent condition. I bought one set of everything for 400£ 550€
Great Video! Thanks a lot!
Thanks 🙏
I can safely say ive never rigged up a sail by removing the manufacturers packaging if your lucky enough to buy new😂
You forgot the harness lines.
why is this in top comments?

Naah! This is all wrong. The best way to rig any sail is, to sit back with a drink and a tasty snack and have one's butler to do it.
that camera ... anoying
you move the camera too fast !!!!
