The Rooster Travel Carbon Tiller Extension solves it with a push-clip mechanism that splits the extension in half, so 1250mm of carbon becomes two manageable pieces that fit in hold luggage or a kit bag.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is not only for the airport. If you store your boat in a garage, a shed or a dinghy park rack, halving the extension makes it far easier to stow without something snapping or getting stood on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAway from the travel feature, this is the same carbon extension Rooster has built its reputation on, used by athletes at every Olympic Games since 2000. The carbon tube is stiff and light, so there is no flex or lag between your hand and the tiller when you are steering through waves or throwing in a roll tack.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the 22mm diameter version, the chunkier of the two Rooster offers. A thicker tube gives you more to hold onto, which suits larger hands and anyone who sails in gloves through the winter, and it is the more common choice on bigger dinghies and keelboats.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt comes fitted with an RWO Omniflex rubber universal joint for a smooth full range of movement, and the joint is easily replaced if you prefer a different fitting. Alternative joints are available separately, so you are not locked into one setup. The 1250mm length is measured from the end of the carbon tube to the Rooster red rubber stopper, so that is the usable figure rather than an overall measurement including fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eRooster 22mm Carbon Sailing Tiller Extension Key Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1250mm length, measured from the end of the carbon tube to the rubber stopper\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e22mm diameter carbon tube\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePush-clip mechanism splits the extension in half for travel and storage\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStiff, lightweight carbon construction for direct feel and control\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFitted with an RWO Omniflex rubber universal joint\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJoint can be swapped for an alternative fitting if preferred\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRooster carbon extensions used at every Olympic Games since 2000\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rooster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58511799714175,"sku":"146996","price":117.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0138\/5899\/6288\/files\/610c4699-61aa-47c6-bcc0-cf055f556818.jpg?v=1790252827","url":"https:\/\/www.sailingchandlery.com\/products\/rooster-travel-carbon-tiller-extension-22mm-1250mm","provider":"Sailing Chandlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
