Re: Laser Sailers do it ........ ... while on the run (there was someone who said something close to this but shhhhh ) lol Laser sailors beat it... lol... i think im first for this one

lol, yes its a sun.. when my art 10 teacher saw it she was like "the corner sun is sooooo grade 3" lol.

this is one of my drawings.. the other are on the bottom of math sheets because i didnt want to waste looseleaf... i did this one when i got home... photobucket is not cool and wont let me post how i want so its a bit blury... feedback, good and bad please :D.

And to think that was with a reefed main....

Hey i was never really big around here, but i stoped posting a long time ago... but i have return :D Hopefully this time ill get to know some people. :cool:

Haha, that reminds me of when i was at the toronto boat show last year and i was in one of those sail simulator things made from a byt hull and hydralics, i missed the strap and fell on conrete....oww, but it was funny

yea, in this years helly hansan promotional watersports video they did the same thing accept behind a 60 or 70 foot trimaran. connected it to the top of the mast for awesome pop. lol

o, ok, yeah i just finished reading roosters 4th deminsion thing for the 5th time. i understand how to sail downwind in chopy waves...now i just gotta practice going that far into the lee. without dieing. haha

W/L ? im sorta new to lasers. And upwind im great, i hike hard, sail wont luff in 15 for me, i keep it flat pretty good.

in lowest or highest tide, when it pause for some time and without wind the water would be glass, 15 will show a white cap in 1/2 the waves you see. 15 knots is aprox 16 or so mph i belive. and i lovee planing :)

haha i just saw that the other day...they really suck at starting...they capsized a few time each just leaving dock. They all have their sails reefed...is that bad for the sails?

the wrinkles will make air flow not as great. so make it de power a bit by pulling in cunningham to remove wrinkles that make you slower. and you wont notice the slightest speed difference. but dont put too muchcunny or youll see wrinkles the other way.

how old are you...and tall? im 15yrs at 5 foot 7, at 136 pounds, and i like about 20 -25 knts in radial. 15 is alot, and any wind above 15 is good for me :D. anything that i can beam reach, crank sails in and leave, go so fast i cant see 5 feet in front of me.

Or, just sail without a rudder while on the bow...this is a bit off topic though. lol

ApsLtd is the one i wanted. And i was on West Coast before i started this thread. West Coast has a nice site...only problem is....im in Canada, i will probably buy part from my local North Sails.
