[quote=PDS624]my onw little words of wisdom...
the easiest way to keep control of the mast is to keep it as close to your chest as possible. This is especially true for lowering it. Also lower it SLOWLY so it does not get away from you.
When raising it, it helps to tuck a small loop of the side stays into the rear tramp lacing. This will keep them from getting caught up when you are only 1/2 way up[/quote]
