[quote=yurdle]physically lifting the mast is more leverage and technique than brute strength, so it'll get better as you do it.
When on the trailer, but not on the truck (which is 99% of the time for me) and stepping the mast, I put a jackstand under the back beam of the trailer so it doesn't rock.
You can tie a line to one or both of the trap lines, and the person in front can help by pulling those as the 'stepper' lifts, then they're in position to connect the forestay when it's up.[/quote]
