Colin, I really hate to ask, BUT how at approx 3:36 did you guys go from flying a hull to capsized on the other side??? A blown tack, but maybe because you were TOO aggressive on the Roll Tack Stuff??? All Joking aside, can anyone tell me what went wrong??? I'm always willing to TRY To Learn from others mistakes (But usually, I have to repeat them a few dozen times myself)!

In this video let the scenery sink in. It is a quiet video but the seastate is enormous. Note that this ORMA tri is doublehanded ! No other crew then Alain and Michel. After 4:20 this video is also a good example of the right music that isn't some kind of power rock (as typical with sailind videos)
The part from 4:20 to the end is just a beautiful piece of video. And the song Text fits really well at times. Starts out with\
Welcome to your life ! There's no turning back

Help me make the most of freedom and of pleasure !
And the big tri is going full on lifted to it leeward hull splashing over big waves.
Brilliant!
Enjoy !

Very nice! Looks to be running 8 - 15 ft. and they are at times flying from top to top -- awesome!

We were flying the chute and stuffed. I lost my hold in the foot strap and became seperated from the boat. I actually pulled it over on top of me as I was shriping.

The other day at work, we were arguing about some over-involved project that I thought was a waste of time and everyone else didn't. At the end, I threw up my hands and said:
Look, man is born, man lives, man dies. And all is vanity.
