Nice ring and sock. I don't think it will work for me though. I'm using a carbon fiber tapered wind surfing mast as a pole. The O.D. at the ring mounting point is about 1.9 inches. I may have to go with a fiberglass ring for modification purposes. I don't expect heavy use here, so if anyone has a used glass ring and bag they would consider selling contact me at JLHILLIARD@msn.com

TIA
