Good pictures Dan, I can see what I am getting now!

Performance have yet again gone to a lot of trouble [and expense] to incorporate a rotation system that can be trimmed from the wire. This time they are using an 'ankle bruiser' type that the Tornadoes were using a while back. The previous nacra/prindle over-boom system had a fair bit of friction and I always took out a purchase. This in contrast to Hobie who, even on the highest tec Tiger, stick with the jam cleat on top of the boom. Is this a difference in thinking between the two camps? I was always someone who let off the rotation to the max when the kite was hoisted, firstly to go faster but also to keep the mast pointing upward. But now that we are all sailing hotter and harder downwind, is this necessary?
