Will a 2016 Neil pryde combat rig well on a 400 rdm powerex mast?

I need some bigger sails and someone here has a pretty cheap mast and Neil pryde sail.

I'm reading a little how Neil pryde like flex tip masts, and there is scarce info on powerex masts. Their website, tho they are now out of business, says they have an imcs of 19.

Will it rig right?

Help me find lost mast and sail!

long story short I’m just learning, live 2 hours from the gorge and got a flat tire on the way and got there super late.

not wanting to not get to go out that day,, I went it super light wind with my brand new sail, and new to me mast.

not enough wind to water start practice like I wanted to, I decided it would be a good time to learn self rescue, by taking rig apart and piling on the board and paddling to shore. I was only like 50 to 100 yards offshore in 12 to 15 foot deep water.

mast and sail drifted apart from board, and sank and I stayed with board because wind and current were opposing, so the board being above the water caught the wind, and the mast and sail caught the opposite current, and sank.

it was close to a metal piling sticking out of the water, so I have a fairly decent idea where it went down. local search operator wants 300 to find it, but I already spent my money on gear so that’s no go.

how do you think I can find it myself? just snorkel it?

What's are boards worth these days?

I'm looking to get one again. Man I miss the ones I had. I have had gt, xr and pint.

I read some people like the feel of the xr better but my experience was I much preferred the gt. It's been a few years now though.

I don't see too too many listed, but they pop up. I just missed a really nice xr for 750. Heartbreaking, I wrote him and he said somebody was coming right then.

There are two gts with 540 miles and 64 miles for 1500 each from two separate people. I rarely see the gts and if I do they want basically new prices for it

I like to try to get good deals, but I don't want to wait, what's a good price I should be looking for, or a fair price I should be offering.

I offered the gt guy with 64 miles a couple hundred less, and he said no, I asked him if I bought it would he meet me half way and he said he didn't have gas money to drive the 40 miles. Well, then take less for your onewheel in thinking lol!

But no, thanks for the advice.

Mountain bike trails

This is going to be my summer of mountain biking. I just moved here, and got a trail bike.
15 years ago I mountain bikes on and off. I'm no expert but I'm not a beginner either.

Back then there really weren't a lot jumps and stuff, I don't know how to jump but I should probably learn.

So far I've gone 3 times and every time the same route. Park at oak trailhead and immediately at the sign take a left and go to road 770. Then I walked/rode, mostly walked up to the top.

At the top or what seems like the top I took the first left where there is the first actual trail I saw. That was the hardest and longest section, I rode that until it connected to as you wish and ended with narnia and rode a little bit of road back to the parking area.

What else is good, and then when I want to go farther out what's the most worth the drive? Thanks!

Is it safe to sell a bike to someone out of state who pays PayPal?

I'm selling a now worth ~4000 dollar bike. I have it listed on Facebook marketplace.

Someone from the neighboring state wants to buy it. They are offering to have a local shop inspect it and I think lack and ship it, although now that I think about it maybe they are just going to inspect it and I ship it. Either way.

They offered to pay PayPal goods and services. I know I know, I'm behind the times, but I have always just sold stuff cash in person.

That being said, I just set up PayPal a month ago, so I do have it. Is this safe plan for me to sell it? Not to be poor me, but I can't afford to lose the bike or money because it's going to help pay for summer term of college.

Thanks for your advice.
