A warning to anyone about to buy a kid's rig:
Just got one from a retailer in WA, good price, gear all brand new, BUT . . .
- Mast is 2 piece, alloy 35mm, that simply WILL NOT BEND
- Sail is made for bendy mast, WILL NOT RIG on stiff mast
- Vendor says his kid uses one just the same (impossible)
- Vendor says send back for refund if not satisfied
So I'm down $50 + $50 for courier each way, plus a waste of time & effort. The rig is clearly not usable. When they get it back they'll just sell it again until it ends with someone who does not know the difference and thinks the problem is their own fault.
WHY DO VENDORS DO THIS CRAP ? MUST BE REALLY HARD UP.

Thanks for the spam.
