They break because my head is harder than carbon fiber.

biggie/ easy to replace with the superb Sailworks support, but I am just curious
why do they break? The sail isn't that old, and in particular it's interesting
that 2 of them broke at the same time. I wonder if this may have been because I
overtightened them - I vaguely remember giving them just a bit of twist a few
sessions back because of a few minor wrinkles I spotted on the sail.
