Mike walks us through rigging the new Severne Moto twin-cam freerace sail.

I would like to see an actual trimming of the sail. Other brands have markers on the sail to show how much downhaul to use, how much is correct for the Moto? Also would like to see trimming examples for battens - how much for what kind of behaviour? You can learn something from P7 here, they release rigging & trimming videos for all premium sails.

Thanks Windsurf Norway. Yes, all in the plans. For now, this is a way for people to learn the steps to rigging a cammed Severne sail. Many, many people do no know the steps required. Tuning a sail is the next step. Stay tuned ;-)

What is the deal with the Enigma 160 which is recommended for all sizes of this sail?
For the 8.4 this would be at maximum extension, is that a good idea?
Also the 160 Enigma is advertised having an SDM boom head, are you replacing it with an RDM for the Moto, or using an adapter?

Hi Eedeepee,
The Enigma 160 is actually available now with either SDM or RDM head right from the factory, so it depends on how the shop ordered the boom. I will have the guys update the Website. The full head can be swapped relatively easily, but the only piece that's different between the SDM and RDM head is the plastic "cup" that the mast sits in. This is only a $10.00 part.
I have personally used SDM Enigma heads on RDM masts and they work ok, but having the correct boom head is absolutely incredible!
As someone once told me, "If we didn't think that it was ok to use our boom fully extended, it wouldn't have that long of an extension."
