Actually, you do need to make some changes when going from upwind to the downwind.

1. Adjust mast rotation. ( for fulller main; how much depends on wind speed/boat speed)

2. Ease main traveler off center a bit (how much depends on conditions and boat)

3. Ease main sheet for some twist.

4. furl jib? ( I have a uni so I wouldn't know about that for sure)

5. Ease downhaul in light wind
