The Ronstan Carbon Battlestick™ 1255mm Tapered Tiller Extension is engineered for performance sailors who demand the lightest possible feel, precise steering response, and uncompromising durability. Designed for modern dinghy, skiff, and performance keelboat racing, this premium tiller extension combines advanced carbon composite construction with ergonomic detailing to deliver outstanding helm control in all conditions.

Built using Ronstan’s advanced dual laminate construction, the tapered carbon composite tube combines full-length longitudinal fibres with 45-degree lateral glass and carbon fibre reinforcement. This carefully engineered structure maximises stiffness and steering feedback while maintaining the resilience needed to withstand the demands of aggressive racing and high-load manoeuvres.

The tapered shaft design increases strength and rigidity at the helmsman’s end, improving steering precision and reducing the likelihood of breakage when loaded across the gunwale during intense sailing conditions. At only 179 grams, the extension provides an exceptionally lightweight feel that reduces fatigue and enhances responsiveness during long races and training sessions.

A slim-profile Evalon foam grip ensures secure, comfortable handling in wet conditions, while the ribbed finish along the tube provides additional grip and control throughout the full length of the extension. The ergonomic grip shape transitions smoothly from the carbon shaft for greater comfort and reduced hand fatigue. An integrated end stop improves safety and positive hand positioning during manoeuvres.

The removable snap-on/snap-off universal joint system allows quick installation and removal for transport and storage convenience. Manufactured from high-grade UV-resistant urethane, the universal joint provides smooth and uniform articulation in all directions for fast, accurate steering response and long-term durability in harsh marine environments.

Developed for elite sailors and serious racers, the Ronstan Carbon Battlestick™ 1255mm Tapered Tiller Extension delivers world-class lightweight performance, precision steering, and ergonomic comfort on the water.
