Winter maintenance surf equipment

Sunday 23 January 2011

(machine translated in 2018) This afternoon I had finally time to once again to do some maintenance to my surfing gear, still had a list with things that had to happen:<br>-Maui Sails Carbon Grip: Carbon boom last year bought a Maui Sails, amazing thing, but that grip, comes all the way loose. Had the boom for weeks inside to make the grip to dry. First light abrasion, degreasing with acetone, 2 sides mold release with Bison Tix. Drying/wait, crushing them.. Ready. It's not quite beautiful, here and there I am missing pieces of grip, but it is now again though.<br><br>-North Sails Power XT strings: for a number of years now Have North Sails Power XT Extenders, a really innovative product, but they remain strings covers, on average to be 1 or 2 times a year need new strings. (Have also tested with Marlow Formuline, seems to be working with the new insert.)<br><br>-Strings: strings of a need to cut at last by Arrows Extender lambaste (button) new on it. my AL360 a better string used to left-over. Checked, other strings were still good.<br><br>-Just checked all my baseplates Baseplates:, all still good.<br><br>-Screws: last week I Was on the water, not at my GT85 screws, I had used for my Formula board. So an extra set. Missed a screw for my slalom boards, turned out loose in the cart. All headings looked good. Additional screw for my wave boards.<br><br>The cycling but just cleaned, that salt is what they are on the wegenstrooien is nice, but very bad for your bike.<br><br>Next time check my fins all agree.
