I have lost all battens in my jib sail. What is the best place to get them? Or can I make them myself for cheaper? I am a very stingy 19 year old college kid looking for some relaxation over the weekends but the batten problem seems to be affecting my mobility in the water. Please halp! |

Craigslist and eBay are your friends if you are on a tight budget but you can always buy new from a Hobie dealer (just Google one), I don't think battens are really all that expensive, about $87 for the whole jib set brand new. |

Another good way is to contact your Hobie dealer. Oftentimes we have all kinds of used bits laying around. Speaking for myself, I have a stack of old jibs that I just don't have time to list. Jib battens are harder to come by used for some reason, maybe they're a bit more fragile. |
