Bic Bamba Rig

Hi
i am looking for a rig to suit Bic Bamba

Get an Ezzy Zephyr 7.5m2 perfect for longboards.

Hey there, thanks very much for posting the pamphlet of the BIC boards from 1992, that was the year that I started windsurfing and I think that the BIC boards were the first brand that I was looking over...............very sentimental.........those were the days!

Problem is that the board is about 30 years old, if not more.

Modern rigs for general use won't suit it, you really need a race board sail, tall and less twisty than a normal rig.
Sometimes see them on Seabreeze for sale.

Use any sail n rig. Its the Mastfoot connection thatll be specific.
Know anyone with a lathe, who could turn one up for you?
Think they were a Mushroom shaped thing??

Here is my restored Tiga Race Prestige. Have sailed it but it needs new deckgrip so will get on to that this weekend. I use a Mistral One Design 7.4m2 sail on it but do have an Ezzy Lion 3 9.5 m2 which I have used also and also an NP 6.0m2 and 7.0m2 World Cup Racing 1991. I have used the Ezzy Zephyr 7.5 m2 before and that is a powerful sail for longboards and would get that if I had nothing else. I had to replace the slot flusher in this board and it was quite an effort to remove the old one, clean up the area, filler coat with resin, then sand, finish and cut one to fit the narrow slot flusher area. Used Loctite 4860 as adhesive which is what Mistral used in its factory. Tiga did not use the right glue for the first ones apparently and the slot flusher kept falling off in tests (see above). The red "gizmo" for the daggerboard with added Tiga logo was an attempt to replace the missing original blue plastic one with Bunnings off the shelf products. I have since removed it as it is unnecessary in my opinion although it might help racing it does get in the way and the solution might be to reduce its size and declutter the area. The mast track on this board is today found in similar form on the Bic Techno. Infact the Bic Techno universal works on this track which is rather handy. I believe Bic completed a takeover of Tiga sometime in the 1990s. The Tiga Aloha youth board with similar Tiga track was the inspiration for the Bic Techno youth board.

Also depends on what you are doing with the board??
if you already windsurf and have bought a retro board then yes get a big sail..
But if you picked up a " windsurfer" and you plan to learn then you can use any small rig- depending on bodyweight. 4.2 to 5.5 m. There are better learner boards too
