Watching Royal Yellow and TVS1 duke it out from 20 minutes away was exciting. There was a palpable excitement on the beach (yes I stole your buzz word JW...) as we would watch yellow chute in front, then white chute in front as they'd cross and zigzag each other. As they were approaching the mark for the gybe into the finish line, TVS1 rolled Royal Yellow and caused them to lose their breeze. TVS1 should have gybed there but Bailey told me that he was so focused on trimming the kite that he lost situational awareness - its the kind of thing that happens when you've been on the water for 7 hours. Exciting stuff to watch.
