Thanks for the videos and lot of learning. I am in argentina and can not give any of the currencies mentioned but i will give like, and share. Keep safe and the nice akward but funny and lovely format.
Great tip about the line that needs to be up in the head of the boom. Never knew this! And what a time/ frustration saver! Keep these tips coming mr gibb! Thank you....
Great videos! Very thourough and enjoyable to watch. Can you please do an advanced rigging guide, like how to set the battons, how to know how much downward tension should be applied, etc. ? Thank you!
Great stuff. Super helpful. Even for a 35 year windsurfer (experience rather than age unfortunately) i learned quite a bit. Keep em coming. Subscribed!
Guy...best rigging video, this actually thought me that my equipment was left hand forward for rig up, good thing both my sail and boom are like even though they are different brand and that my extension is not.
Great 👍 Video. Thank you. I learned things that I didn’t think that I could improve before. At the end you could show in a bit closer. It was a bit difficult to follow how you tightened the line to the boom. Subscribed
Good videos thanks. At 6:28 about frayed dyneema rope; a hot soldering iron can fix it, cut off frayed bit with soldering iron and melt end a bit more. The main trouble being remembering to get round to fixing it before next session. [ Obviously take care to let iron cool down again in safe place, non flammable ]
@@jaryH3 Not really, I don't know if this knot has a name. You twist a loop and lay it back over itself, then weave the stick over then under and over again. It grabs but doesn't tighten and then slips back out.

The best rigging tutorial by (very) (very) (very) far.
Extremely helpful, especially the downhaul placement around mast over boom
the best rigging video on the internet!

At 7:57 the uphaul stays on the right side of the sail. Isn't it a little bit uncomfortable to get the sail up from the left side?
Super helpful and the only full tutorial on the internet. Everyone else cuts stuff off and leaves out details. nice work my man!
top ! Perfect ! Merci beaucoup !
Awesome!
What do I need to do to go faster as today. Trip to Luderitz?
Use a slip knot with the slip being the trailing line to the mast base rather than a bowline. That way you can easily untie it and adjust it.
Better yet, use Marlinspike Hitch

My kit from 2005 is looking a bit old compared your shinny sails.
Hey Guy, do you also box? :)
There is a better down hauling knot. Loop, then over then over under over with the stick/bar/what ever.
Clove hitch? Every sailor have to know the clove hitch

Urgh. Uphaul versus foot straps. Grudge match.
