Amendements aux règles de Classe RSX.
Depuis le 1er janvier, les regles de jauges RSX ont évoluées comme le précise l'amendement ci dessous:
1°) concernant les footstraps, plus de marque imposée, le choix est libre, seul le nombre de strap et de vis est précisé
2°) le cover de dérive pryde n'est plus obligatoire, si elle est utilisée une simple protection de derive de 25mm de large sur 135 mm de long fera l'affaire, en utilisant les trous de fixation existants.
3°) les palans sont libres et des poulies peuvent être rajoutées à l'oeillet de point d'écoute de la voile.

Slot Flusher Protection: To minimize the chance of water entering the slot flusher of your RS:X board we recommend you apply a mark-cloth semi-circle to the nose end of your daggerboard lips.
Competitors at the RS:X Worlds will be able to get pre-made slot flusher patches prior to the first day of racing, free of charge, from Shaka Surf and Kites in Torbole. |

The Powerbase unit, including the universal tendon joint, is subject to extreme loads & forces and should be regularly checked and replaced if it shows any signs of wear and tear. The universal tendon joint has a limited approximate lifetime of up to 120 hours and should be automatically replaced after this time. Furthermore, always check that the RS:X Powerbase is fully inserted into the mast track of the board, and the locking mechanism is fully closed, before going out onto the water. For more information on the use, care and maintenance of your Powerbase, please read the User Manual provided with this product. |
|
The following components of the Powerbase should be checked regularly for any signs of wear & tear:
|
| The Tendon Joint on all Powerbase units should be free of any cracks or blemishes in the rubber material. The easiest way to confirm this, is to bend the joint 90 dehrees through 4 different axes while checking the mid-point of the joint. If any cracks appear, the joint should be replaced immediately. |
| The two upper and lower drift pins holding the tendon into the tendon holder should be tight. The tightness of these pins can be confirmed with an Allen key. |
| The bottom pin that inserts into the mast track should be flush with the bottom tendon holder and not have any play. |
| The U-Pin should be flush with the upper tendon holder and not have any play. |
If any of your NeilPryde RS:X products are showing any of the above signs of wear and tear, please contact your local Neil Pryde RS:X vendor for advice as soon as possible.
Sail Safe. Have Fun!!

Utilisation et entretien du wish et de la rallonge

Your boom and/or extension can be seriously damaged by impact with a solid object, extended exposure to sunlight or corrosion (aluminium booms and/or extensions). This damage may not always be visible to the naked eye. Never place yourself in a situation where the breakage of your boom or extension would make it impossible to return to the shore unaided and without assistance. For more information on the care and maintenance of your NeilPryde boom, please read the User Manual provided with this product.
The following areas of your boom should be checked regularly for any signs of wear and tear:
-Mechanical front end parts: front end lever, clamp and screws.
-Inhaul adjustment rope.
-The ferrule joint.
To give your booms and extensions a long life: |
| 1. |
Take care to keep your booms and extensions out of the sun when not in use. |
| 2. |
All sliding components must be free of sand and grit. Be sure to rinse out your boom and extension in fresh water to prevent the build-up of dirt. This will also prolong the life of your aluminium extension which can be subject to corrosion over time.
|
| 3. |
Make sure you use all 3 pulleys when threading your outhaul.
