    Thrown the ball? It’s a second hand V1 boat with two old mismatched foils. can we just wait until an team actually put the race boat out there in its final configuration before we go and judge people for throwing any balls?

    Fun thing from that vid is seeing where the main actually sheets from, you can see the tension lines radiating through the main, a good 6 ft inboard of the leech, should help set up a nice bit of twist should they Need it

    Auckland =flat as fuck Barcelona =ridiculous sea state (even in that vid there was decent swell) when seas state exceeds the gap between the hull and the surface you will either beach or splash down. that’s what happening

    Appologies 4himself thinks the kiwis not winning in France is full domination of a series so on that basis GB that haven't won the AC makes them the most dominant AC contender

    You genuinely believe it’s the same crews/team event staff, sponsors? NZ dominance? You might be a tad early on that given the event result 😂😂😂

    You know they are different events? Like they have absolutely nothing to do with each other in terms of the boats, the teams, the personnel, the shore crew, the event management, the organisers, the sponsors venues, etc

    Yup I do, and I stand by it. If they were as good as you make out they would’ve hit the ground running not taking two fucking years and copying everybody else’s homework to get up to speed. I know you don’t believe that’s the case because russel said it that they only got up to speed when they...

    So they raided the AM toy box for what were the smallest and fastest foils with a bunch of people that knew how they worked as well as the guy that trimmed the most advanced sail set up.
