I loved the extreme efforts to avoid capsizing, but everyone turns turtle once in a while! These sailors are great. This is why Lasers are an Olympic Class.

So miss being mobile, flexible in shape and fearless. In other words under 25.

Didn't know it was possible to pitchpole or submarine a laser.

I always wondered if you could pitchpole a Laser. Yes... yes you can.

I sailed Lasers in Asia - tame, even timid by comparison.

Every tack being a capsize really helps my imposter syndrome.

Reminds me of sailing on Lake Ontario. We sailed out of Oswego and you get some huge rollers and wind. You keep the small craft behind the breakwall to help with this. I have been out on some bigger boats when it is 6-7 foot swells.

I used to race a Laser many years ago... However, not nearly a good as these guys. Great fun!!!

I take great comfort watching sailors far better than I dump their Lasers.

I used to race on a reservoir in Lincoln, Nebraska will stationed at Offutt AFB. Wind really blew out there. Capsized twice in one race and still finished in the middle of the pack. I can remember a death roll on a dead run to this day. (It was around 1975)

Before Lasers there were Sunfishs. After a while we'd only go out in small craft warnings, broke spars... this is my kind of small craft sailing.
@stratstart
Great video! I miss my old Laser! Thank you!
