Heart in the mouth stuff when one ski lifts off the ice ! Great vid, couple of questions though,
1) How do you know the whole lake is thick enough to sail on, going through thin ice doesn't bear thinking about. ![]() 2) I can't even walk on ice when I am sober, so how do you do it when you have just had a bottle of whiskey for lunch ??

Just had a second look, the sail/wing bends both ways at once on the 80 mph run, though I doubt he had time to look up !!

A little edit of our winter training camp in the 49er- enjoy :) we haven't been sailing it for ages hence some of the slightly rookie gybes!

Did it one on a frozen lake in Poland ages ago. Only conventional sails in those days and the ice was covered with a thin layer of snow so that even with goggles on, the worst bit was trying to see where you were going. I don't expect I did more than 40 mph but it was brilliant.

Thank you Ron, for reminding us that there is more to this forum than moaning about some dodgy sails.
The video was great to watch and the soundtrack was really good. Where did you get it from?

Successfully confusing ambition with ability since 1980.
