In the Laser main there are tell tales behind the luff. To the best of my understanding tell tales are only used in these position on fore sails like genuas and jibs, because the mast causes eddies and vortices that disturbe the flow too much and mains generally are fitted with tell tales on the leach, at the position of the battens.
How does this work out in the Laser (why no tell tales on the leach, but near the luff).
I am also considering putting camber stripes on my practice sail, to improve on my understanding of the influence of vang and luff tension. Any recommendations on placement of these stripes?
