Great sailing, what was your top speed downwind? Also I haven't noticed you trimming the outhaul or downhaul but maybe it's just not visible on the video
Hi Lukasz, unfortunately I didn't use my speedpuck and didn't record the speed on this day but it feld that it was well over 15kts. Day one I used the 7 rig and on day two, this vid, the 5 rig. I'm a lightweight under 70kgs. On this reach to downwind course I kept the kicker on to keep the boat better balanced, downhaul and outhaul off. Actually with this windspeed you need to set your controls prior sitting in the back because in this rear position you can't reach the lines easy or be prepared to swim when you do. Upwind is kicker full on, outhaul and downhaul on.
@@syningaloo yep, it sure looks like over 15 knts :) My weight is also about the same so 7 rig is max in winds stronger than 5-6 knts. Try to experiment more with the outhaul and downhaul upwind, you can also have an intermidiate setting in lighter winds it will give you some additional boost :)
