Rather than trying to explain how to do it here with out having to explain how all things work I would make this recommendation.

Buy a six Pack of good beer.

Go to your local windsurfing spot.

Introduce yourself to one of locals and ask them if they can give you a quick run down on kit, offer to bribe them with beer.

Alternatively get some lessons and you can learn that and more there.

most guys will be more than happy to help the guys that helped /help me were fantastic have become good mates its the way to go and a good
way to upgrade your kit a time progreses???? with stuff from people you know...

Brucie? hmmmmm

Where do you sail Karl? (or plan on sailing, or live...... so we may direct to to the nearest place that there will be lots of ppl to ask)

I pondered same... In the end I decided possibly not as there is more punctuation in the writing then is typical for our forum trolling friend Perhaps it is a clever deception

new rider, bit of back ground: there is someone dood from doodledanland that is obsessed with posting the same questions over and over using different user names. This upsets some users.

Thank you all for the advice, and good sound advice it is. I live on Lake Erie in New York. What a great Forum, all of you should be proud to be surrounded by helpful and kind people if I may ........ good on ya !

There seem to be several posters around the Great Lakes region in the U.S. - or perhaps one very persistant individual, that when blocked under one identity - like 'bigboard' for e.g. goes to the next identity- like 'new rider'. But irregardless we still seem to get the similar type question - "Oh help me - Im a beginner, and I need help" type question.
If this is in fact correct - it really intrigues me why a person would actually do this. Bigboard and some of his alter ego identities have certainly copped some flak from doubting users. I am one of those that question why a person would waste not only their own time with the laughable farce, when that time could equally be spent with a notable therapist of some sort - because it does raise some questions about your mental health - perhaps bigboard or new rider or whatever identity you call yourself today can shed some light on this.
My real name is Gary Mitchell and I live in Mandurah, Western Australia.

Now he is replying to his own posts once again. Thanks in advance hmmm. Trip, New Rider, Big Board, Bnelse92 are the same seppos

ok so i know some of you think i am the same person as the others such as big board etc. i set up my rig how i have been since i bought it and was wondering if anyone would tell me a way to improve it, or say it is good so i can be of help to others with the same issue. thanks [URL=webshots.com/weekly[/URL]

Trip is still Bruce!
Why the hell would he go to all the effort in taking photos and insisting on trying to find help on the internet? Those damn yanks are just trouble. Go down to your local sailing spot and someone will physically show you how to do it. None of this bull crap on the internet. Or maybe try another windsurfing site closer to septic ville?

I agree with notwal, rope both sides of the boom look wrong, you obviously didn't tie it on parallel to the mast.
And I've never seen anything like that head before.

ok so now that i know that i did it wrong. when you say parallel to the mast how do you pull it back down because you would have to go through the mast wouldn't you? the calmp i built is permentally fixed to the boom then slides over the top of the mast and you tighten the screws to tighten boom. if there was a shop anywhere close to me i would go but because i dont really live in a prime location, not many places to go, there are not any close by.
thanks
