Everyone misses an important first step (Important when there is wind - which is why you capsize for real!):
Once you're in the water, start by holding the bow line (painter) and your body will act like a sea anchor and get the bow pointed into the wind for you (instead of swimming it around by the dagger board). On a bigger boat in heavy air & rough seas, it's sometimes the only way that reliably works.
You should really read the information about this video before saying things like this. This video was taken FOR me to show me how to handle a capsize. I.E this capsize was man-made. The wind took no park in this.
haha yeah. air bubble's are scary. :p i just love to dry capsize the whole time. (: or sometimes, if we have a group of friends, we all go out on hunters and play pirates! :D
Hahaha. My dad and I turtled this boat twice. The second time we turtled it the boat actually had me inside of the air bubble. Scared the crap out of me.

Let the wind do the work for you.

My first capsize was sailing solo, I just knew the theory of recovering the boat and every one was watching on the beach, but I got it right.

Congrats on your first capsize!
When my dad and I were capsizing people at the shore were screaming, they thought we were in serious danger.

The winds were pathetic that day. Besides, my dad was showing me step by step SLOWLY how to do it.

Looked like a warm day: just right for a capsize.
