ILCA/Laser Upwind sheet drop practice, 9/2/2024
zhlédnutí 271Před 16 hodinami
LCA/Laser Practice Footage - 9/2/2024, San Francisco Bay The wind was around 16 knots. I was frequently advised, “Your hiking out is reasonable, but you need to use more sheet.” As a result, the focus of this practice session was on releasing the sheet when hitting waves or when experiencing strong weather helm. Given that this was the practice objective, I tried it very frequently, which likel...

ILCA/Laser practice 8/4/2024 in San Francisco North Bay. The wind was strong (about 20 knots), so it was a challenging day. Footage includes (1) Tacks, (2) Upwind sailing, and (3) Downwind sailing. The control lines are fully on in the upwind. The boom was very low with max boom vang, so the tacking was very challenging. In the upwind, the weather helm is too strong and I could not keep the til...
Laser/ILCA instantaneous death roll capsize with no time to react

ILCA/Laser - Why sometimes mainsheet gets caught on boom end when gybing
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 5 měsíci
Sometimes I have had problem that my mainsheet got caught on the boom end when I gybed. This does not happen too often, but did happen at a critical moment during the race, which was disastrous. I was wondering why/how this happens, and when I was practicing last week, my GoPro happened to capture the moment.

Laser/ILCA practice near Brooks Island 10/30/2022 - Upwind part
It's been 25 years since I've been in a radial, but do you think a little more vang would've made the boat easier to keep flat and steer the waves? I recall people cleating the main and pushing the boom with the foot to get more tension which releases the leach to depower and the boom moving more laterally rather than up then out when releasing the main. I imagine the techniques could've changed in the mean time and perhaps ilca 6 and ilca 7 get sailed differently but I'd be curious if there are any experts that have a similar opinion.
Thanks for the comment. I agree that the tighter boom vang can help in strong wind upwind, especially if we are dropping the sheet. This is still true i the modern sailing technique. In this footage, I think my vang was set to 93% of my max setting. I could have pull it further a bit, but in this practice I left some room, as the max vang makes the tacking very challenging (boom becomes very low). I remember the old days when we could only use 3:1 vang, and we needed to pull the vang as you described. Nowadays, thanks to the modern vang system with 15:1 ratio, we do not need to do that any more. Still, for me who is not so physically strong, pulling the vang to the max setting is challenging thing to do.
Very helpful! Since I am a beginner, what are the indications shown? Thank you.
Thanks for the comment. My camera and video setting is described in the following link, and at the bottom of this page, you can find the picture which describes the each indication. You can click the photo to enlarge the image. toshinari.blogspot.com/2022/08/laserilca-on-board-came-setup.html
Nah, that tack was great!
😃
Where did you get the stand/mount for your camera? Its such a great angle. I love all your videos, great work 👍
Thank you very much. I made my camera mount by myself, and this is described in the following link: toshinari.blogspot.com/2022/08/laserilca-on-board-came-setup.html
@@toshinaritakayanagi incredible stuff, thanks!
The second one is a pearl 😂
😃
May I ask what camera you’re using? Thanks!
I use GoPro Hero 9 with Max lens mod. Some details are listed on toshinari.blogspot.com/2022/08/laserilca-on-board-came-setup.html
bro ım 173 and 70kg is it okay for radial ? and ı did not trained gym for legs :(
I think “173cm, 70kg” would be almost ideal for the radial. I heard Anna Marie Rindom, one of the top ILCA6 sailors, telling “ideal weight for radial is 67kg if you are fit, 70kg if you are not so fit.” I think this would be a top level athlete statement, but I think 70kg is good. In Masters group (over 45 years), I think the ideal weight for radial is 75kg as we are not so fit and not young. I am 167cm 65Kg, so I am a bit too short and too light.
@@toshinaritakayanagi thanks brooo
I really like your videos! Do you have any hints for minimising spray on GoPro lens? Your videos are much clearer than mine!
Thank you very much for the comment. Mine also gets the spay that crowds the view, just like this footage. However, if mine looks better, a couple of things I can think of are: (1) I coat the lens with Rain-X water repellant before I launch, though I am not sure if it has any positive effect. (2) My camera setup is shown here: toshinari.blogspot.com/2022/08/laserilca-on-board-came-setup.html I use a relatively long pole for the camera mount, which might be making the camera position higher above the water, possibly reducing the spray hitting the lens? (3) I use Max Lens Mod, which has a curved surface. This curvature might be helping in reducing the water droplets sticking less to the lens?
Thank you for sharing !
This helped me learn so much!! Thank you.
Thank you very much for the kind comment!
Thank you Toshi. You are doing a great job sharing the videos 👏🏻
Thank you very much!
Watching it in slow mo you can see the sail fill with air and push you right over as soon as you ease the sheet
Thanks for the feedback. I agree with your observation.
I can do that. That’s why I gave up and now drive a flybridge yacht - no chance of spilling my drinks. The death roll I could never manage, it was bloody annoying and I just wasn’t good enough
Camera is going same speed can here the rub being pushed wow 😊
Being pushed
Were you sailing by the Lee? I'm trying to understand how this happens for my own practice downwind.
Yes, I was sailing by-the-lee.
@@toshinaritakayanagi At least how I see it, the roll happened the moment you let the sail out past 90 degrees. Letting out the sail like that may have caused a change in how the direction of lift being generated by the sail affected your direction and balance point, causing said lift to push the head of the sail to windward, rolling the boat on top of you. WIth the head being the furthest from the boat's centre of mass it lets it dictate what the boat's gonna do quite easily. In those situations, might be worth getting in the habit of shifting your weight in the boat more/even further leeward (depending how extreme you need to balance it) at the same time as letting the sail out in that context as anticipation for the change in balance. Could be wrong tho!
@@thelongone3218 Thank you very much for the feedback. I was probably already unstable with loose vang and sail too far out for the angle. Then, the sheet ease was perhaps the last straw as you mentioned, tipping the balance point strongly.
Thank you for sharing. Very good.
Thank you!
thanks for posting. Excellent stuff.
Thank you!
I'm blown away(pun intended) watching this, it looks a lot like last year's clinic. Great video, thanks for sharing and I hope to get back there soon!
Thank you very much Justin! I wish both of us come back to the ISA and enjoy the clinic together soon!

Looking good Toshi. Thanks for coming and come back and see us again soon!
Thank you very much for everything at the clinic! It was a truly fantastic experience! I will definitely come back soon!

Hey Toshi! Thank your for uploads. If you want to add timings to the video, you can add them to description and it will be separated in the auto mode. The key here is that you have to do the zero mark and it has to be, timing first, words after. Like 0:00 Intro 0:21 Warm-up drill 1:34 Downwind light winds etc I didn't realize myself that I have to do the 0:00 mark so it never worked for me, until I found it out one day. So I share it with you now, hope it's as helpful as your videos. Keep posting!
@@kabyraGe Thank you very much for the helpful advice! Let me experiment that and try it next time!
Upwind, too much movement on the ruder... it slows the boat down.
How do you set up a camera like this to follow your boat? I'm being looking for way to do that but cant find any

Thanks friend. Good Sailing
Very helpful. Thank you from Vancouver.
Thank you very much!
Ahah
Amazing
must be a strong puff to be working the boat that hard with a radial rig, good stuff!
Thank you very much for the comment!
I used to have a similar problem with the sheet getting hooked on the corner of the transom leading to an inevitable capsize. Eventually got into the habit of grabbing the sheet a little above the traveller just as it went slack and physically pulling it through the gybe.
Thank you very much for sharing tour experiences, Fred! In both cases, it looks not having the mainsheet slack seems like a key.
💞Wow💗💗💗💗💗💗💛

@@charlesbronaugh8996 Yes, I sail a radial rig. I have actually sailed in Gorge a couple of times: 2-3 times before the COVID and last summer. Gorge is a beautiful place, but it tends be often too windy for me ;)
@@toshinaritakayanagiYour boat handling looks great. Yes it is a lot of volume most all summer here. You have both good wind and currents to deal with in SF Bay, I do believe if you can sail there well you can sail anywhere! Keep it up!

Your not a true #ilcalasersailor until you've missed the hiking strap and flipped backwards out of the laser. At least it wasn't going around the windward mark and everyone runs in to you like I did at the last masters regatta! Love the rating(10's) across the board, nice touch on the edit, lol.🙌😁 #ISA is the best!
Oops

I get concerned when I see this because of potentially falling on the daggerboard but looks like it was a clean splash.
I see. I can also see this could have been potentially dangerous, but I am glad that we were all just able to laugh at it when we reviewed the original video with our coach. I have done this a few times in the race course when tacking, so did many sailors, but this was a rare case that the camera could capture the moment.
@@toshinaritakayanagi True. Thanks for posting the video.
@@toshinaritakayanagi Ex-laser sailer. Having done the "Korbut" flip myself many times missing the hiking strap. The risk of hitting the daggerboard is very low. The daggerboard is well forward of the cockpit.
