Correction

In one of my last posts, Rigging 101: Vang, dated at 4/1, I have a picture of the fine tune coming in to the vang boom block. And on top of the fine tune block I have a red stopper ball. Please note that this is illegal. I had to contact Chief Measure Jean-Luc Michon about something, and he saw my blog, and was kind enough to correct this for me. I will say that I first saw this in Tim Davison's "The Laser Book", and it showed Paul Goodison (I believe it was him) rigging his vang with one, and I never thought to check the rules for this. So if you plan on going to a world class event, I would advise against doing this. I will have to go and remove mine.
