Tushingham Dino 2011

With its specially developed soft mast and narrow boom, the Tushingham Dino 2011 delivers all the feel and performance of an adult rig to the lighter, younger windsurfer.  

Since its introduction we’ve seen a new generation of young windsurfers, who began with the Dino, stepping up to international competitive windsurfing!  New for 2010 is an X-ply edition, offering additional durability for centres and extra heavy use.  

The Dino mast is a particularly important component as the small sails require a softer mast to allow the leech to twist off in gusts. Without the soft masts, the modern design Dino sails don't work properly; the rider may as well be on a basic training rig with a stiff alloy mast. 

In the UK, the Team 15 youth scheme sees regular junior racing in several categories. Across the country the Dino is by far the most popular sail in the racing, selected by both centres and parents for easy, forgiving performance and excellent durability. 

Tushinham Dino mast choice

The Tushingham Dino has a special soft mast and we strongly advise the appropriate Tushingham Dino mast to partner the sail. The sail is usually sold as a complete rig, saving on individual component prices.

The 4.5m sail, with its longer luff length can be rigged on a small adult mast (such as the RD 60 370) but the lighter, softer Dino mast offers superior performance for young riders.

The Tushingham Dino Rig includes;

Tushingham Dino Sail, Tushingham 2 piece 60% Rdm Mast, Alloy Boom, Mastfoot and base, pulleyhook and uphaul.
