Clever add to your rig to help protect the nose when the rig gets away from you, or you find yourself being catapulted.
Easily press fits into place, right below the boom, so that the section of mast that typically hits your board is now padded. Velcro closure around the mast secures the protector to your rig so it can't fall off.
Much cleaner setup than gluing bulky pads to the nose of all your boards.
