Laser vang/kicker

Hi, I just bought a vang and I have only just noticed that the block which attaches to the boom does not have a beckett, so my question is how do I set it up with this style of block, photo will be attached. Thanks

That key block does have a "becket" :D You can tie the line through the hole at the centre of the sheave.

(But you don't have to have a 3:1 primary line - for example, you can have a 2:1 there and a 10:1 total, "Scheidt-style".)

Steve C.'s videos are helpful, although it's for a Allen set-up.


This is a very, very useful video about setting the vang up correctly!

Thanks, I did think that might be the case but I wanted to be sure, I was wondering if the knot would go through the hole under the key, I'll wait until it arrives to make a decision
