Chinook Pro1 Carbon

Description

Chinook Pro1 Carbon

Proudly made in the USA. Monocoque custom composite body and tail-piece. The Pro 1 Carbon booms have exceptional strength to weight properties and incredible torsional rigidity. The boom head fits both standard and reduced diameter masts perfectly. New Loop-N-Go outhaul block with rope retention gets you out on the water faster. Straight arm sections combined with more grip area around the compact head make this our most popular small carbon boom

The Pro-1 boom head is fully articulated, so regardless of what height the boom is set at, there will be no excess tension on the boom arms or the mast. It also ensures that if the boom head is not level with the clew, the boom will not pull at the leech or foot of the sail.

These carbon booms come into their own in choppy or overpowered conditions – their stiffness resists arm bending, and prevents the rig from distorting and causing you problems!
