Why all the thumbs down? The people selling them seem okay. They talked themselves out of a sale with me as I was looking for a new mast for my Pryde sails. They tested their mast and advised the curve on their masts did not suite the cut of Pryde racing sails.

normally a one post wonder with a link to a product is generally a pimp

Just a theory as to the red thumbs

Ha, never said I was smart

Just good looking

Has anyone used one? just curious. Considering a 430 before summer comes, I was leaning towards an ezzy skinny due to the convenience of buying halves at a time if needed. cheers.

I am in Coffs which is pretty well much half way between Syd and Bris which would prob be the closest store or larger windsurfing communities to pick up 2nd hand gear. I wanted to try a skinny, they are pretty rare to find 2nd hand around here.

Yes we get them in secondhand occationally, we have a Naish Firestick 430 or Sailworks Backbone 430 available at the moment. Generaly they feel the same as a standard mast, they are alot stronger and mast breakages in the surf pretty much are a thing of the past. The biggest difference is the sail rotation as they don't have a big mast to rotate around and when you grab the mast after a gybe they feel more cumfy in your hands..
