Good and well explained overview and helped me understand better what I’ve been getting wrong. Thanks. 👍

[@trackie1957]

Wow. So much to learn! Thanks!

[@DinghyRacingChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@annakeen3841]

i find really helpful the way you explain and show this. do you have more laser videis? are you anywhere near the isle of wight? i would love you to come to do a dinghy course nxt summer at the Royal Solent for laser week ( or at another time)?

[@trackie1957]

I’d like to learn how to use the waves when going downwind. If you can travel nearly parallel with the waves on a beam or broad reach, I think you can use the power of the wave to surf, but I need to learn the proper technique

Does the way that you go over the wave actually make you/give you a faster boost
