470 Team USA 1734 Sailing

[wardrak]

why was the crew doing air humps towards the end of the video?

[hotdogger420]

Its called leech popping, used to de-power the main in order to keep the boat flat. If you look you will notice dave only does it when the boat begins to heel over.

[edshift]

me neither

[LUCASgProductions]

I cannot see the video!

[stellalover1]

you are allowed to pump once per wave

[xPbambabamxP]

1734 FTW

[swissfan32]

Where is you rear trap?

[fredster8]

haha if uve self trained urself enuf to not knw wat pumping is u need to be on the water again mate or read one of ur books if ur too scared to go out in pumping conditions. these guys knw about it as well as me- Alegionnaire and 54015can

[Gettinghitonattheban]

I still have my money on Great Britain to dominate.

[davelee9]

that last comment was meant for fredster8... more like masterb8

[54015CAN]

the crew is twitching to help power through the waves. its not illegal at all, in fact, anyone whos ever trained in a 470 will have had extensive coaching on how to do so kinetically with their skipper. over 11 kts there are absolutely no rules against using kinetics, and on the downwind, crews are even encouraged to pump the spin on every wave. if you sail a 470 correctly you easily keep up with 29ers on the upwind and may even pass them in light breeze.

[j3nelsan]

Nice work guys you suck..:))

[italianboy676]

日本のヨットの動画ってあまり見ませんよねえ。

[gordonlover5]

they didn't even make it close to making the olympics. kinda ironic that he gave his old crew the boot a couple years back and he ended up beating him in the trials and going to the olympics

[jakebarnes20]

cheap and illegal kinetics

[Alegionnaire]

Your 'cheap and illegal kinetics' are allowed unlimited when the wind speed over 10 knots (when the yellow flag is raised).

You fail @ knowing.

[rsuhay]

Thanks for posting this video. I sail a 470 and love watching you guys work the boat. I wish you the best of luck.

[fredster8]

its not slow in heavy winds becoz it bounces the rig which opens the leech of the main and exhaustes the wind out of it soo it de-powers the rig in heavy airs

[kaino3]

did ya wanna know that twitching slows ya down bcuz its shaking the rig ohwell 470's are crap any way there slow

[butweat]

they're slow if you suck at sailing :P

[TheDrone]

fuck thats boring

[fredster8]

haha hes twitching because that pumps the main up wind and helps the power through the waves

so wat u said is not "welcome to olymic sailing"

[bcamet]

Song is "Club-Euro - Insomnia Remix-Techno Dance Hits Mix"

[Phillip6900]

haha that guy is right go to 1:50 thats halarious, sparkle fingers or wat ever that cheerleading movie calls em.

[micheltopin]

wtf, he is ridiculous with his hand

[matieman77]

they do that to get more weight out away from the boat to keep it flat dumbass, you have probably never sailed anyway so you cant really say much

[bond200792]

[nrk1001]

awesome vid whtas the name off the song?

[harima06]

[art900090]

"Why on earth is the crew twitching so much at the end of the video. Personally, I would protest if I was racing against them for excessive kinetics!"

welcome to olympic level sailing.

[bhworld]
