How do you get windsurfing mast apart when stuck?

If your windsurfing mast is stuck, first ensure you’re working on a flat surface and check for any sand or debris that might be causing the jam. Try twisting the two sections gently while pulling them apart to create some movement. If that doesn’t work, you can apply a lubricant like silicone spray to the joint and let it sit for a few minutes before attempting to separate the pieces again. If it’s still stuck, consider using a soft cloth to grip the mast while applying more force, but be careful not to damage the mast.

How do you transport windsurfing equipment with care?

To transport windsurfing equipment with care, ensure that all components are securely packed in padded bags or cases specifically designed for windsurfing gear.

Always check that the straps and fasteners are tight and secure before hitting the road.
