Rohan Veal (Champion Foiling Moth) shares his opinion about EasyRigging

Quote taken from: www.rohanveal.com

Friday 7 December, 2007 - Stiff Rigging

Got sent a set of PBO stays through the week from EasyRigging in Holland. The most noticeable difference over the wire stays is the weight. They were probably around 20% weight of the wire, but they were also thinner at about 2mm compared to 2.5mm for the wire. Even lifting the rig up to the mast step was noticeably lighter. Amac was out earlier in the day in a solid 25 knots, but by 7pm the wind had dropped off to 20 knots and so James and I went out for a blast.
I was surprised that there was no stretch in them at all, even after we finished the 45 minute session. The downside is that a lot more care needs to be taken with the stays. Luckily we have some new prodder bags that should look after them in transit.

We asked Rohan some questions :

- How was your first experience with EasyRigging shrouds on your Bladerider?
They were great! no stretch at all, and noticeably lighter. RV

- What is, to your opinion, the difference made by using EasyRigging ?
I think they will give an advantage of around 30 seconds around a course if two people are exactly the same weight and set up. RV

- 30 seconds per round sounds like huge difference, is it really that much?
I meant about 30 seconds per race (usually about 30-40 minutes). RV

We at EasyRigging and SmartRigging are very pleased to hear that we can have such a positive effect on the performance of a champion like Rohan Veal.

Imagine what we can do for you….
