For insane winds when your normal boat will totally own you

An easy to sail twin wire boat for light weights which so far doesn't exist (unless you want a spice, yuck!)

Anyone seen this before?

I've only seen 500's with single trapeeze, Good idea though! Must be great fun for the lighter sailors!
