Default Looking for a 1-man wing rigger for a DG-1000

I will be looking for a 1-man wing rigger for a DG-1000 at the SSA-Convention. Ours (it seems to be a standard DG rigger) appears to be to weak for the heavy DG wings. The linear roller-bearings have bent, and the balls are falling out. Also, when the wings are flat (in flight config), the rigger-upright is either leaning to the right or left because of wing-holder flexing..

Hello Heinz:
I have a Cobra electric rigger for Duo Discus and similar listed on glider source (below) and can deliver it to the SSA convention in Reno.
