- Sailed in La Rochelle, France, in May 2014, in winds of over 20 knots, this was filmed using stern cameras on each Finn. Giles Scott had already won the championship but went on the lead round the medal race for a seventh race win that week. Vasilij Zbogar did just enough to win the silver while Ed Wright (whose camera failed to work) took the bronze.
The film shows Finn sailing and Finn sailors at their best. The conditions were extreme, with exceptional competition among great athletes. They make it look easy.
Шикарное рубилово))
This needs to be mandatory, the technology is there, it's relatively cheap and the clubs/classes need to get into this because mainstream media are generally not interested. Well done Finns, no audio but a picture tells a thousand words. A great way to show friends what sailing is really like and perhaps get involved.
Great video and great sailing! Makes me stoked to go to the Masters in Sopot
loving the music! - fits nicely with the situation IMO - fast paced music with fast paced wind condition. technical boats matching very technical guitar finger work. Agreed not everyone's cup of tea, then again neither is sailing Finns in over 20 knots of choppy breeze! anyone know the first song?
finn sailing at its best!! the crown of dinghy sailing!
By-the-lee looks ‘easier’ on this boat versus laser.
When running by-the-lee in big air an accidental gybe would probably knock you off. I’m guessing a lot of opportunity to get knocked overside on that boat
impressive
It's good sailing from the top Finn sailors, but imo 20 knots is NOT heavy in sailing terms. BTW - what cameras were used for this footage? (always important to include this info.)
"winds over 20 knots" someone did say 25-27 knots at times, but hard to say crouching low in a rib to stay out of the rain and spray. but the cameras were gopro hero naked mounted on a custom frame over the rudder.
Can you mention the two included music pieces plc
Pauleira
Why do people always choose heavy metal music for sailing videos?
Heavy Metal???
we don't
TheFinnChannel neither do we!
That is far from heavy metal!
Can you mention the music used?
Pity about the music (?), it detracts from the beauty and bestiality of Finn sailing at its best.
