Columbia South Carolina, USA | I had grip tape on the rear beam of my I20 but didnt have the nads to ride back there from the wire, but it looks like this is the position this skipper is in. Maybe its the camera and he is just sitting on the rear of the boat, but sure looks like hes trapping off the rear beam.
Either way, some pretty cool stuff.

South Carolina | It crossed my mind briefly this week when I had a difficult time staying on the side of the F18....it's a powerful boat downwind but is lacking in buoyancy in the bows. Trapping off the rear beam started to make sense this week - but I didn't have the kahunas for it just yet (I'm not bored enough with heavy air sailing!). I want to try it though!

Columbia South Carolina, USA | Okay, I will film you. Can you a rig a chicken line for the back of the beam too? Sure would be a long flight from the rear to the front in a pitchpole.

South Carolina | Bryan Karr's I20 has a chicken line for trapezing off the rear beam...although he admits not knowing ANYONE who's tried it.
