Chinook Pro 1 Alloy Booms

Chinook Pro 1 Alloy




We put it all in our new PRO 1  top end aluminum booms. 


Pro 1 Alloy booms have exceptional torsional rigidity and 


fit both standard and reduced diameter masts perfectly. 


The addition of absolute length markings on a generous 


62cm tail-piece aid with rigging your sail properly. 


The rounded outline makes hand transitions during jibes, 


tacks, and the most advanced freestyle moves feel 


natural.

Chinook Carbon Extensions

Chinook Carbon Extensions
Chinook Carbon Extensions
Chinook has just updated its legendary extension range. 
All carbon extensions are now being manufactured in the US to ensure the highest standards of quality control and finish. The medium skinny extension gains an additional 4cm to 32cm and the long version  gains 8cm to 46cm. This allows them to cover an even bigger sail range, typically taking you up to a 7 metre sail on a 430 mast.  The pin and collar adjustment system removes less fiber to maintain strength of tubing. All come with the proven Power-Haul pulley and cleat system and 2 cm adjustment increments. New graphics finish off the very attractive package. The skinny carbon range covers short (12cm), medium (32cm) and tall (46cm) and the standard diameter range is medium and tall, all being available with either Euro-pin or US cup base fittings.

Stiffest alloy booms Chinook have ever made, Made with super tough 6070 marine alloy.

 

Chinook Alloy 2011 Booms



Stiffest alloy booms Chinook have ever made, Made with super tough 6070 marine alloy.
Features an incredibly user friendly, super stiff composite front end, made using a unique molding process, Boom clamp is over 11cm long on the mast, minimizing point loading
Fits straight onto a standard or skinny mast without an adaptor, Stunning blue anodized continuous tail piece!!

Alloy Gorge         129 - 191cm
Alloy Wave          137 - 198cm
Alloy Slalom        152 - 214cm
Alloy Giant Slalom  167 - 229cm
Alloy Course        182 - 244cm
Alloy_Formula       223-285cm
Effortless ''loop - n - go'' attachment from tail piece to
clew of sail
Foam filled tubing keeps water out
Harness line index markings
Reduced diameter grip

The Chinook 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.
Chinook Unconditional 12-month Warranty
For all Chinook booms, bases and extensions purchased in the UK during 2010, we are offering an unconditional replacement warranty on any broken or damaged items that occur while windsurfing (for a period of 12 months after purchase). This will even include getting munched in double mast high waves, shore breaks and incidents with rocks or groynes. Damage caused by any activity on dry land will not be covered. No replacements will be issued unless a valid receipt from point of purchase is produced.

I was impressed at the changes to the new Chinook triple clamp carbon boom. In the past I felt that to put stiff carbon tubes on a flexible front end was a waste of money. Most of the control on a rig comes from a strong and stiff connection to the mast. But the fellas at Chinook don?t sit on their butts, and the proof is this excellent product for the money, and made in the USA.

So what is different? If you look at the first picture you will see tabs on the sides of the carbon tubes, securely fastened to the triple clamp.

http://www.calema.com/forums/articles/Mauiclamp/Ch3.jpg

Some of the benefits are the possibility of disassembling the booms for travel or in the case you break one side, you can purchase one single tube and install your self with minimum fuss.

The rear end is continuous carbon and has a nice all incorporated pulley system that integrates perfectly with adjustable outhaul systems. No need to drill, add pulleys or modify to get it right. Also no sharp carbon edges to chafe working line. All details have been well thought out.
http://www.calema.com/forums/articles/Mauiclamp/CHback.jpg

The Clamp has huge leverage, so no problems tensioning the inhaul and the clamp to the mast. Actually, you have to be careful not to over tighten the clamp or you could crush the mast.

The diameter on the regular diameter boom is great, not too small and definitely the right size for comfortable sailing. The adjustment on the back is slick and painless, with a pin positively engaging the respective hole. This prevents torsion on the rear, a nagging problem when using very wide tail ends for racing. The net effect is a much more responsive rig. I like this boom for sails up to 9.5

Finally clamping the boom uses the same motion as shown on other  booms front review, and again, on this clamp, there is enough line to easily loop it through the catch hook (yellow arrow) without having to loosen the inhaul each time you rig and de-rig (sequence below).

This boom is a keeper for any sails size.

Chinook Carbon 2011 Booms






One of the lightest carbon booms on the market.

Extremely stiff, strong and dependable Features an incredibly user friendly, super stiff composite front end, made using a unique molding process. Boom clamp is over 11cm long on the mast, minimizing point loading, Fits straight onto a standard or skinny mast without an adaptor Built in rear pulley block on tail piece - perfect for fixed outhauls or in-flight adjustable outhaul systems
Foam filled tubing keeps water out
Harness line index markings
Reduced diameter grip

 
Unique narrow bend curve of Chinook's wave arms is preferred by many wave sailors - it encourages a more manoeuvrable, upright and less inhibited stance
The Chinook 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!
