Surely a remote control spinni halyard is te ultimate pimp for the 700, just imagine being able to hoist while flat out on the wire!

Thats a good one Tom if you go to Alegeos.co.uk they have some funky progrip, some of it is tragic though. How about getting a different kite sock made in a different colour?

Carbon fibre compas bracket/ drinks holder? put some new, different (patterned?) grip on your 700 racks?

Replacing all the ropes with Maffolli is pretty much a standard pimp now, its a bit like having a set of alloy wheels on a car - neccessary.

Right I fancy joining the club,

i have 2 weeks off as of friday to modify and/or the 200 an 700, anyone got suggestions of what to change? The ropes are ok but not mafia (sp) rope does that count as a pimp?

Any suggestions?

Because the rudder post gets smashed to death by the boom (And because I had some left over)

I picked the black/grey camo as it matched the maffoli mainsheet, and looked pretty sweet.

Are these pimp enough?

Merlinboy where did you get that grip stuff from? It

Hence my rudder post, although it does have a function (it stops boom smashing it to bits)  Also not sure you can see it from the photos, the tail pads have a big heel like lumpa t the back, which is really useful on a 300. 

 

I'm quite happy with it, definately not as lame as TT's womes stomp pads.
