This should have been the perfect day for the carve and the NP 6.2. Rigged my sail. Bang said the mast. No idea why, manufacturing error in my opinion. But bought it more than a year ago, so I'm afraid this isn't going to be a clear cut warranty case. I'm sure I rigged it right, made sure the two mast pieces were fitted precisely together.

Another arggh. Had brought the Gun Wave 4.0 as well, but couldn't waterstart with it. Just not enough wind.

I don't know, is it just me having all the break downs and disasters or is windsurfing just like that?
