GUNSAILS | Rigging Guide Camber Sails 2019

[@scaler04]

Why do I need a carbon set? I mean for students it could be a bit expensive, so is an Advantage Mast and Boom also working with a Vector or even with a GS-R?

[@gunsailswindsurfing]

The boom would still work, but the advantage mast is too weak for a race sail. You'll never get the performance out which the sail could deliver, then better get this mast in combination with a freeride sail.

Does this apply to the Exceed as well? Or just the Vector?

[@gunsails2769]

Hi Claudio, for Exceed as well, but it is anyway easier to rigg as luff tension is less and camber pressure also.

Thanks. The video says to pull the downhaul leaving 8-10cms, then push the cambers onto the mast, then apply rest of the downhaul. However if I do that with my Exceed 7.0, it is too hard to push the cambers onto the mast. So I just pull the downhaul all the way and then push the cambers onto the mast. Is that ok or am I doing something wrong?

I'm really struggling to rig my 2019 GS-R every time. I just can't find the right downhaul tension so I can pop the cambers onto the mast easily. Do you have a tip for this sail?

[@gunsailswindsurfing]

Hi Marc, maybe try to set downhaul 100% and then pop on the cams. When pushing down the batten, do it firmly to gain more space for rolling on the cam with the other hand.

@@gunsailswindsurfing already found the solution yesterday. Trim the downhaul to approx 10cm from the max, then the cambers are easy to install. Just like in the instruction video!
