2015 Sailing World Cup Melbourne

This year's Sailing World Cup Melbourne was moved to St Kilda's Sailing Precinct on Port Phillip Bay. The event had a variety of conditions, consisting of no wind on some days, to a 40 knot squall on another. However most days the venue provided athletes with champagne sailing conditions. Over 180 competitors took to the water throughout the week, this is a glimpse of the regatta. Enjoy.

[@paerwasster]

Say Hi from Thailand.. love your videos. The wind & wave is insane.

[@toshinaritakayanagi]

This video really inspires me! The 49's are literally flying like jet plane (0:35) and boys in OP class are very brave in maneuvering in the heavy wind and waves (5:30)!! Thank you very much for the fantastic video!

Thanks Ben! Once more time, you nail it! From the recording to the music, the quality and the effort put in the videos... Can't stop loving the stuff you make. Your newest O'pen video is awesome (didn't know these thingies were so fast lol). Keep up with what you do! P.S.: How do you stabilise the videos so that they appear so smoothly? They appear as if they were recorded on land :-D Thanks again!

[@sailingshack]

+Gamal Trinidad Kabil Thankyou! Just get lucky sometimes with the stability on the water, with a flat patch etc of waves.

Nada, como la vela ligera para planear en la ola. Y sentirte vivo, al mismo tiempo que trabaja tu mente y la relaja. Yo la califico como deporte mental.

[@stuartaft]
