Pocock Racing Shells has developed a new ultra-stiff aluminum wing rigger for its eights, fours and pairs.

“These new aluminum wing riggers are stiffer, lighter and cleaner looking than any other aluminum rigger we’ve seen,” said Bill Tytus, Pocock president. “The key feature of all our products is stiffness and we maximized the stiffness of these riggers.”

Coaches and rowers now have greater flexibility when ordering a Pocock sweep boat. They can either order the carbon or the aluminum wing riggers, or they can order both.

“Although nothing is lighter or stiffer than our carbon wing riggers, they require more care than aluminum riggers,” said Tytus. “The new aluminum riggers are very rugged and durable.”

The aluminum riggers use the standard slot adjustment system and are available in a wide variety of color choices, so that you can match your school or club colors.

The new aluminum wing riggers are available for Pocock’s full line of racing shells. Pocock is currently taking orders now for the spring racing season.

Pocock’s full line of racing shells are all handcrafted in the USA and are guaranteed to last longer than any other boat on the water, backed up with a lifetime warranty.
