Hope you agree the helmsman and how well he holds the course ddw has a lot to
do with mitigating danger during a spin jibe and if done properly there should
no be excessive force on the mast end. Essentially the helmsman has to be able
to free fly the kite ddw during the jibe until the contacts at either end have
been secured, sheet end first. My 35MKII is setup for end for end jibes with a
fairly substantial aluminium pole that is over 16 feet long, J is 16’5” if
memory serves.

You will get differing views on end for end or dip pole. Personally, I
prefer the dip pole method......maybe that is because I was the bowman on
different boats including a 1985 C&C 33 MKII where we only did the dip pole
method.
Dip pole is especially better in heavier air, by better I mean safer and way
easier to accomplish.....there is no struggling or danger to the bowman if done
right. I always positioned myself in front of the forestay between it and bow
pulpit squatting down, not standing up with my chest virtually resting against
the forestay .....lazy guy in one hand ready to receive the pole as it comes
down and across with the other hand.
When it is choreographed correctly, it is a smooth, safe and effective means
of controlling the chute in all conditions.

Hi all,
I’m looking advice/recommendations on symmetrical spinnaker jibing on my 33
MK II
I’ve got a single set of spinnaker sheets
Should a deploy and add lazy sheets and guys?
Or use a twinning line barber hauling system
How to handle the baby stay? Should I disconnect it and To facilitate a
Pole dip or do pole end for end jibing.
Appreciate anyone’s thoughts and opinions on this subject.
