If you haven't checked your UJ for a while, now (start of the season) may be a good time.

I was doing some speed runs 7.8m sail & 115L board, clocking 32 knots on the last run I was just heading up wind for another down wind run when the UJ snapped.

I'd hate to think what I would have broken if it had off snapped on the down wind run doing 32+ knots...ouch.

If you haven't checked your now might be a good time for an inspection or a replacement.
