After reading Paul Goodison's Laser book I decided to follow the easy three step advice and straighten my top section. Unfortunately after performing this I discovered there are actually six steps to this procedure and step 4, 5 and 6 were missing. So for the benefit of others here's the full list.
Step 1 - Support the mast section on a suitable elevated object
Step 2 - Rotate the mast until the bend is uppermost
Step 3 - Apply downward pressure until mast section is straight
Step 4 - Keep applying until you suddenly fall face first to the ground
Step 5 - Pick up and admire your new 2 piece top section. Now swear loudly for a long time
Step 6 - Throw both pieces in the lake, walk off mumbling to yourself and order a new one
On with the Laser adventure then
