So, last weekend I was looking for a new boom to rig my North warp 7,3. After some small research @ surfspullen.nl forum, it became clear to me.....! According to the discussion the MS booms are the stiffest and good of quality, NP X9 booms are stiff but seem to have some quality issues with grip?! Still both these booms are pretty expensive like euro 800,- and up. Then I found a discussion regarding the quality of Unifiber booms. The smaller 2008 models didn't have a monocoque head and according to the guys on the forum this results in less stiffness. The 2009 models all have the monocoque and a thicker end piece tube. The boom looked quite nicely made as well.
See photos's for details.
The price however was almost half of the MS and NP, so I decided to give it a try.
Only thing missing now is time and wind to try it asap.
