Regel tolkningar av FW regler
Taget från http://www.formulawindsurfing.com
Detta betyder att det inte är tillåtet att sätta på extra flappers på sin bräda som många gjort tidigare. Hål i seglet är ok, och flytta stropp placering är ok.
Bra att ha det svart på vitt.
Rules and Board and Sail alterations
Class Measurer answer
Questions:
Dear FW Committee,
1. I have one question regarding how far the tuning of a
board is allowed inside the FW rules. We have the case of
Drops that want to tune their boards with some rigid foam
pieces glued into the tail cutouts of the board as you can
see per attached photo (those greenish triangles).
As the race season is about to start, we would like to have
this thing clarified so to avoid endless discussions at the
races.Peter Munzlinger
AIWC Committee Member2. Following the discussions about equipment I was made
aware of one big concern of some amateur racers. They are
not able to efford expensive carbon booms So they are
using normal booms. As this booms are not durable and
stiff enough at almost 3m length they have made holes in
the monofilm of their sails and towwed a rope from one side of the boom to the other.How should we treat this?

Rules and Board and Sail alterations
The International Formula Windsurfing Class Rules prevent damage repairs or alterations or
additions that change any of the original lines of the board or fittings positioning. The only
exception to this is that the position of the footstrap fittings may be altered, this exception is
permitted in accordance with the rules governing ISAF Production boards, and is not prevented in
the FW Class rules.Sails that have been FW Class registered shall not be recut or altered and shall comply with the
dimensional restrictions on the registration sheet for that sail . Any eligible registered damaged sail
that has had significant major repairs or panel replacement or luff pocket alterations shall be
subject to measurement control before it is again eligible for use in International FW regattas. It is
the owners responsibility to notify the measurers of the alterations or repairs prior to the start of
racing.
A single circular hole in the body of the sail in the plane of the boom, to facilitate the fitting of a
boom brace line, shall not be considered to be an alteration. The maximum diameter of such a
hole shall be 75mm.Peter England

Flapper är en sak…”some rigid foam pieces glued into the tail cutouts ” är en annan. Skulle inte tro att man får problem med reglementet om man har spinoutroblem och tejpar på lite fladdrig plast där bak med enda syfte att hindra luft från att sugas ner….du förändrar ju inte outlinen för det.
