If you have the little plates in the footstrap try and rotate them so they are closer in without having to change footstrap width, I'm the complete opposite to you though, I have mine fully spaced apart and the plates rotated for more room and they are still too tight so If anyone has suggestions for making them wider than the inserts I'd appreciate advice

it is a three board cover and I have been told that it rolls up to around 90x90x80cm and around 6kg, so the cheapest postage calculator shows around $90 making it almost a better option to buy two brand new single covers instead

I have used a 5.7 with a 446luff on a 460 so it sits up a bit high and it didn't really feel that much different apart from getting pulled over the board a little bit more when going further downwind and feeling a bit dampened

Just looking at getting a cover shipped from Perth over to Melbourne, any suggestions on what company to use.
Alternatively, is there anyone who is travelling over from that side with a board or sending one across that would need a cover for that trip that could borrow it to get it across?

Just wondering if anyone has a gps watch that has got plenty of life left in it and is approved for the GPSTC that they are looking to sell.
I'm 16 and don't really have the funds for a new one and I was given the idea to put up a post to see if anyone has one around.
Thanks

I have painted bands every 10cm and then put a hard wearing clear coat over the top. was lasting fine until I let my brother use it and drag it up the beach, but before I hardly had a scratched them off after around 15 uses with the boom, moving it around every session for different sails and stuff.
