KIWI YOUTH FIND THE LIMIT | May 28th | America's Cup

One of the remarkable factors that courses through the entire Emirates Team New Zealand squad from the very top to the bottom is honesty - and it's a remarkable, refreshing factor in the Louis Vuitton 37th America's Cup. Today out training on the ‘Back Paddock’ in Auckland, the Youth Team who were one-boat training on their AC40 over-cooked it on the exit of a gybe, lost the rudder and then had what can only be described as an epic pitch-pole and resultant capsize.

I guess you have to find the limit a few times to work out how close you can push it

[@TheRflynn]

Wow, it bounced out

[@Nobilangelo]

Sailing under water is not recommended. It confuses the Waiheke ferry.

More impressive than the pitch pole capsize is the boat handling before it in the video. With youth sailors as talented as this they might keep the Cup forever…

It’s always a pleasure seeing people do what they’re really good at. Finding the limit is one thing anyone can do. Having the skill to stay just on the right side of it is another. These sailors here know how to do both very well. It’s like going aground. Those who have and those who have yet to do so

Deberían colocarle un folien de seguridad en proa,para evitar esto

[@jameslittlewood7821]

Promising! Since Bermuda all AC challengers and winners have capsized during development or in racing

[@jamesaron1967]

Thankfully, everyone was OK.

I am intrigued to know more on the auto pilot rules for the youth and women... do they have to use the auto? Or can they run without it?

[@isailwind3471]

Driver fail, hope no one was hurt.

[@number1genoa]

Going down the mine, will need resource consent

[@Pete35vail]

Wow something’s not right.

[@barryscott6222]

Didn't ease enough... ?

[@dprout3392]

Ouups, one new gib please!
