Are you wearing a pfd? I'm starting 29er sailing and trying to get better at getting out on trap

[@ymsmit08]

Yep definitely still wearing a pfd 👷‍♀️. With pfds, if you've got a bigger one it probably easiest to wear it underneath your harness but I've got one that goes about halfway my torso. With getting on the trap faster, footwork is key but also jumping out the side and clipping on afterwards once your hanging out the side. Any other questions please let me know!

Sick video I really need to find a helm so I can get back in the 9er Also what are you using to play music is it just your phone, wouldn’t it get cooked in the capsizes?

[@CameronGee-i2v]

I think it is a VHF radio, you can see the antenna at some points in the vid

[@ymsmit08]

Haha cheers. It's a lot of fun. Yep, when we go sailing solo with no club patrol boats out, we always make sure we take a VHF Incase we get into any sort of situation

@@ymsmit08 what vhf radio do you use?

[@ymsmit08]

@plexx731 I use a STANDARD HORIZON HX890BK. I find it's really good especially with the built in GPS and amazing battery life. I can at times go about 2 months without having to recharge it.
