windy plus!!
Bad luck with Billows mast but in defenec i will say that out of the 100 or so of these that i have had only two have broken on first rig.
THe rest have stood up relatively well , with the occassional break as all masts do.
We have all seen Naish, NP and severne break on first use AND THEY COST DOUBLE/TRIPLE the price of the billows mast.

As with all other brands I hope they stand behind their products. Did not sound very promising yesterday.
I'm sure in genuine first use like this there should be no issue's.

Wait and see

When something is over 12 months old ( that is the warranty period)it becomes a bit difficult, regardless of whether it has been used or not. Same with any consumable product and warranty periods.
More likely a good will outcome on this one.
We will wait and see, warranty claim has been emailed off.
