TORNADO Mega Wind Shakedown

30 KNOTS++ Going out to see if she'd hold together. Some breakages, but we persevered and were rewarded with some big speeds!

Mast rotation will balance you out better if you adjust it...also you are still ploughing along on the stern, its sailed like a hobie..you need to balance the water line of the hull with your movement forwards mostly more, from what can be seen in the fish eye video, bows on T's don't normally fly up in a gust, but at all times you need to be moving more dynamically to balance the waterline, fun times !

[@JoyriderTV]

We were certainly curling our toes to stay attached. Yes, I think especially without the jib we were too far back - looking at it.
I think we could be more dynamic generally. Not so much more training time now before the Worlds so we'll have to apply it during the event.

[@cuxolli]

Heyho, like button pushed and let the show begin.....have a good day to everybody 🎉🎉🎉

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks!!

[@RustyClam]

For best up windspeed raise your leeward board, and lower your Windward board. Try to keep your Windward hull just clear of the water, and the bow of your leeward hull 2-3 inches above the water. it worked for me.

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks for the tips!

[@John_Lemon.]

That was inspiring

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks!! It was a great sail!!

[@claudiobaer9039]

amazing ride....

[@JoyriderTV]

Big day!!

[@proffessorclueless]

Mamma mia, no more Swedish Jon. He was a Super Trouper. Still, now Sir Ben is crewing we can all expect many World titles.

[@JoyriderTV]

Yes, unfortunately no more Abba references with Ben!

[@christoferedeus114]

Great action and fun💪🏻
Would be great with a big T recovery video after a capsize as well🙏🏻

[@JoyriderTV]

Ha! Yes, I was actually trying to avoid that - the T goes pretty fast on it's side - in that wind it could have got quite emotional!!

[@brigitteprasek4988]

This goose is well done... 😂 I wish you winds like this in Rimini, pls, no low-wind-festival!

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks. Yes, If we get a bit of wind we should be ok.

[@markjones3425]

downwind looking good!

[@JoyriderTV]

I think, I should have heated it up more to get the hull higher but fear got in the way.

[@jensbrinkmann6417]

Wild ❤

[@JoyriderTV]

100%

[@MotoDUDEabides]

Drill all the way through and use a stainless bolt and stainless nylon locking nut. Use low profile bolt heads as needed.

[@JoyriderTV]

Great tip! Thanks

[@scottfleck2223]

1:00 American accent jumpscare 😮😂

[@JoyriderTV]

I thought it was more west country UK

[@frbo323]

You see I told you that with high winds , Tornado, Tiger goes even faster without jib as less down force on the hull 😊👍 DPat 😊

[@JoyriderTV]

You were certainly right!!

[@hayeetmdwawi5682]

Hi ❤

[@JoyriderTV]

Ahoy there.

[@markjones3425]

good crew work some trouble with the jib track eh??

[@JoyriderTV]

Yes, a bolt pulling out.

[@tobydenford8640]

Not sure I fully understand the issue but could drill a hole fit a riv nut (ally or 316 A4 stainless and use an A4 grade machine screw

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks for the idea.

[@tjwo1]

Hey Joe - Waterspeed tracks your heart rate too - how was yours during this run!?? Ave 150?

[@JoyriderTV]

Ha! Yes, getting on for that.

[@texastuma]

Could you build a stainless backing plate that will slide inside the track? I’ve done similar. Pre-drill and use a feeder to align it properly. Tap the backing plate. Give me a shout for more detail. The speed run last year on Franken, we took the jib off and hit the number.

[@JoyriderTV]

Thanks for the idea. I've got a few options now that i'm looking at.
Yes with the jib off she went really well.

[@vgfire629]

Weld it

[@JoyriderTV]

Seems like a very good plan.
