NEXGen Fixed Outriggers
[3]
Choose the appropriate U-Bolt
✔
The U-Bolt
3
ties the Articulating Mechanism and Frame together to prevent
damage to the Articulating Mechanism Channels.
Short U-Bolt = Dynamique or Junior Bi-Unique (one Main Rail thick)
Long U-Bolt = Adult / XL Bi-Unique (two Main Rails thick)
The photo above shows catastrophic damage to the Articulating Mechanism
Channels that results when NEXGen Fixed Outriggers are skied without
installing the U-Bolt
3
.
To install:
1)
Adjust the skier’s center of mass to the ideal fore-aft ski position.
2)
Push the appropriate length U-Bolt
3
over the Main Rail and through the
mounting holes (as shown on the previous page). The legs of the U-Bolt
3
may need to be pulled out slightly to clear the Front Channel.
3)
Slide the U-Bolt Spacer Plate onto the underside of the U-Bolt. The U-
Bolt Spacer Plate is leashed to the Rigger Mount
1
.
4)
Secure the U-Bolt
3
with the provided nylock wing nuts.
While skiing:
Periodically check that the wing nuts are sufficiently tight. If you need to
adjust the center of gravity, loosen the U-Bolt
3
, reposition the ski fore-aft,
and then retighten.
Never cut the U-Bolt leash or use NEXGen Fixed Outriggers without the U-
Bolt
3
.
