Gee, everybody's a critic! :-)

He's covering the basics in light wind. Jibing is different in different boats. Jibing doesn't necessarily suck - some boats will jibe quite gently, some boats you have to be more careful in a jibe.

Good video! I thought it was very good to see him pause in the middle of his lesson to show how it's important to always have a good look around before executing a manoeuvre in order to avoid potential hazards.

@Australien662 piss off you soppy wanker

Oh, I'm sorry, did I spell that to your miserable liking? Or am I missing a couple more of well-deserved insults? :D Boy, do I love messing with all sorts of arrogant pricks. Knowing that your head is exploding with anger as you read this brings me a warm cozy feeling of genuine satisfaction.

By the way, who's won the Ashes this year? Was it, NOT you guys??? Or was it England?? Hm??? :DDD

It shoud be great sailing in here with all this Aussie Hot air blowing around :) His mommy didn't put enough milk in his oatmeal so he just needs a hug. If that doesn't work then maybe a foot up his Kangaroo kissing ass!

HooYah

I agree with you "foss" that it's a decent instructional that teaches these fundamentals in an easy to understand way. It would be very difficult to teach and sail in heavy wind. I absolutely loath a superior attitude based on where a person is from. There are excellent sailors in the U.S. as I'm sure there are in Australia. One thing we can also be sure of is that there is at least one a-hole in Australia. Thank you EXPERT VILLAGE for the vids.

geez, did I touch a soft point ? and lets be honest here, I would gladly accept your invitation but I really can't see you teaching me sailing....

Come on out to San Francisco Bay and sail, big shot. We'll show you how we sail.

And before lecturing us about spelling, you might want to review your elementary school books on capitalization.

Wow,Just another Inexperianced dick that thinks Lasers are the Best of the best.
