look for GiuliettaSailingTeam here on youtube, and search for a video called "jibing the asymmetrical" we have a sprit as well, and it never tangled the sprit
@ theonecalledtom, Not at all, we are talking about jybing with the chute coming inside itself, but outside the forstay, i have never seen a boat with the chute halyard block below the forstay anyway, have you??
@bigkiwial I think it depends on where the halyard block is located. Typically they are above the forstay. If you use the genoa halyard it is below the forstay and you can gybe inside as with the smaller headsails.
no it does not..maybe you're doing it wrong..

In higher winds, it flaps like crazy, and if you have a cutter, the lines tangle round the bowsprit.

First I'd like to thank you for such cool videos.
I def. think outside gybe is easier ... at least from the look of it.
