Don't you hate it when someone fiddles with your carefully tied toestraps while you're out for a blast ....

The same thing happened to me when i was teaching yesterday. All of a sudden you've fallen out the back of the boat and now your group won't listen to you because they think you can't sail |

Villan, you really think it was wise to name the victims? They may decide to target your OWN toestraps now... (oh no, I'm not giving them ideas...) My dad's toestraps once broke and he fell out but managed to keep hold of the shrouds somehow, I've had several nearly embarassing moments in toppers of all things when I miss the toestraps and sliiide...

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist hopes it will change; the realist adjusts the sail |

I've had toe straps break on me in the 400. I guess i just hiked so hard? once at the start of a long distance race. Manage to keep my self in the boat using the jib sheet. Just a shame I had to hike on a piece of rope for 12 miles.

If you can't carry it, don't sail it! |

I have been lead to believe you have instructed here recently .... So don't start mentioning the size of the lake ... I always have plenty of fun there, and its good tacking and gybing practice! Edited by Villan |

Lesson No.1 - Don't have toestraps. If you haven't got them, they can't come undone! Very funny all the same. |

I feel the pain- I accidently backfliped off the Iso on Sunday. Drew a round of applause from the assembled Mustos and Contenders around us. |
