idk the content is even upscaled to 1440p. In my latest video it is much better. It is race 5 of the same race day ruclips.net/video/UPK4yDxiGVk/видео.html&ab_channel=LaserDN
Such sailing purity; a tub, a rag, and a stick. No-one and nothing to blame but yourself. People like Scheidt, Ainslie and Thompson won against huge fleets over and over again for years. I don't know how they did it.
Lasers capsize easily, but righting is even easier. If you're really on it you can scamper over the rail to the daggerboard, right the boat, and get back into the cockpit without ever getting wet. We used to do that as a drill when I was a kid.
@@Owannagotobed here is some advice, just enjoy the process and dont rush it. I think the best years are with friends in radial, personal opinion. Its also key that you start going to the gym as early as possible, training multiple tiemes a week, doing strength training. Sorry for the long text :/
I did a set of races in that type of condions, during the worst of it the average knockdowns was 12 or so. Triangles, on ther reaches everytime I felt good bam I was over. I weighed in at about 145 at the time, the real fun was finding and switching boats between races! USNA maybe Spring 1980.
Bluntly put pretty shit coverage as the last 10 seconds shows that the Brit took line honours, but nowhere does it show he actually achieved that. It’s purely lumpy conditions with no story to tell. Acceptable yes, but not riveting
Rough waters!!! Respect!!!🤩🤩👍
Glorious finish, but nothing beats that kind of chaos at the windward mark.
its incredible
Great race, thank you!
Thanks for watching! will upload more soon so subscribe 4 more!
How is this the first time iv seen this footage?
Because you weren’t paying attention 7 years ago
I think I was under the same rock!
Time is linear
I've*
That looks dreadfully cold but so much fun 🤩
cold in winter only
i love heavy wind😄
where can i watch full race video ?
Where do you get this footage it’s so great
Found a VCR from an 80s camcorder by the looks of it. Oh, the interlacing!
Thats tough!!
Why is this interlaced footage? This is last century tech.

It’s because most races can’t get as high quality equipment on the water. It’s a lot harder than getting something for the 100m track race :)
@@OwannagotobedI'm pretty sure it wasn't recorded as interlaced footage. I suspect someone messed up the export settings.
Awesome ❤
Oh the times I’ve been like the Swedish and the Malaysian boats at the windward mark! But for me in benign Force 3 winds!
The music ruins this video, what's wrong with the songs of wind and water?
there was no wind neither of wind or water. I had to place music because there were lots of empty spaces
was that kevin my friend?!
Look at Nick Thompson go! Just like an easy midsummer outing on the Channel, ha ha!
Loved racing my laser 😢

Why the noise?
Annoying music😢
Looks like the cameraman was barely surviving :)
Going downwind is scary in those , they capsize so easily

Late port tack approach ill advised.
Let’s go El Salvador 🎉🎉🎉
Quero ver 2024,ora no mar del plata
Those uh… those are full rigs, aren’t they?
they are
Lowkey I sail 4.7s right now and full scare me :/
Really cool and I can’t wait until I’m able to sail them

Best of luck with your sailing!
Phew, that's one way to build up a six-pack!
Why do they hide the full race??
this is the only footage that i was able to find
Survival? Just easy in a Laser no issue
Que locura tremeno chaos
Sisis tremendo
que leyenda Robert Scheidt, 43 años en esas condiciones, tremendo.
Tremendo!
@@laserDN hay una regata donde tom slingby da una clase magistral de cómo marcar creo que en 2012 contra los pavlos kontides
Where's the chaos?
Commentator obviously not a sailor, doesn’t look that windy just big waves - no where near survival conditions …
Commentator is Peter Lester. Is very much a sailor. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Lester
It always looks less windy in a video than it feels on the water. Lasers also have a pretty high sail area to hull size ratio.

I don’t know, dude, that looks pretty serious. Sail a contender.
Looks a lot like hard work, not so much like good fun.
obviously you don't know much about sailing
He calls el Salvador estonia
The sailing cant stand on it's own, it's nothing without the crappy soundtrack!
Laser looks like a 'pig' to sail in those conditions!
I would love to have watched this - but couldn't because of the pointless stupid loud music.
Hardly Survival Conditions...Sail FINN..LoLaser

Argh, another great video ruined by music
Catastrophic video quality
stressful enough without adding that annoying stressful music
"Insane", "chaos", "unbelievable "?? Meh.
Thanks!
