How about the courage of those sailors, all the other classes didn't race and they were trying to pull the spins out. It gets my heart rate up watching the vid and makes me want one even more. I have had to jump as far as I can to leeward a couple of times in big wind because the wind on the tramp pushes the boat so fast that I have smacked my head a couple of times coming up. I don't think I would bother jumping if it was going over backwards because I think that would be pretty slow anyway
