"SHEET IN AND MAX OUT" is the quote I remember from the video. We used that video at so many boat shows in the 80s.

Nacra fly too.

OUCH!! That NACRA landing looks like it was a lot harder on skipper and crew. I wonder if they got back on the boat as the last frame shows them both off the stern in the air. I was amazed (still am) at how Froome and Driscoll stayed on the Hobie through repeated jumps in the video. I've had most of my H20 hulls out of the water in big waves but never the whole boat. It comes down hard enough without being totally airborn.

They did stay with the boat and carried on.

The sailors are Hugh Styles and Adam May (UK Tornado) who did not qualify for the Games.

Nope, its not Styles and May, its Bundy and Gunnar, doing a race in New Cal a couple of years ago.
