Don't want to spoil the party, but I could have done with the video dwelling on the action rather more. There was lots of exciting chopping about, but I found myself wanting to see the next few seconds of a scene.

There is always a compromise with multi fleet events...And condensing in to a 'highlights reel'
Three courses, seven classes over two days of sailing... We are really happy with it but welcome the criticism to improve the next time. |

Here's my video of the week Hands up, I do sell Core Kites, and we get loads of action videos, but this one has a nice balance of scenery v action, they were apparently quite unlucky with the wind, but found a very nice wave nonetheless.

Just interested what you are trying to promote in these videos and the photos you took ?
With the regular updates you keep giving us about your Yoof (boats, sponsorship etc) - what is the aim for him or are you just sharing these as a prod parent ? |

Thanks for that Jon, as a fellow D One sailor it was interesting to see the techniques and set up used. I just wish I was young and fit enough to move as fast as Cam!

Good
Not questioning in a bad way - just interested what the ultimate aim of it all is ? |

Hi Rich, Cameron is quite open that it's his ambition to represent GBR at the Olympics in the Finn, and I guess it's my aim to support him as a Dad to try and reach his potential. We're all fully aware of just how big an ask that is, but the way we do business is to ensure that we all enjoy life; the travelling, the camping, the camaraderie and the challenge.
![]() Damned right I'm proud! ![]() ![]() I've always posted pictures and more recently videos of me and mine on here (search back for the Alto video I did with the boy crewing for me) - the only difference is that now Cameron has a sponsor, we're obliged to ensure they're recognised for their help. Hopefully they'll see a benefit and will continue to support him further, and perhaps other young people in their respective sports. Maylarch have been extremely generous in their support of Cameron, and without their help it's highly unlikely I'd be able to afford the steadily increasing costs of travel, accommodation, coaching and entry in both Lasers and Finns, especially if we're looking at the Finn Junior World Champs in Valencia next year. ![]() As a family we haven't had a holiday for 5 years, but that's our decision and I don't think any of us regret this. As you've probably seen, I'm having to sell my D-One to buy a Finn, but hey - if I wasn't prepared to support them, I shouldn't have had kids/taught them to sail/encouraged them at school (my eldest is off to Uni next year also). I am proud of my kids, and sailing has given us some of our greatest memories, friendships and skills. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by Bootscooter - 02 Dec 14 at 9:59am |
