1}It is worth every Euro.

A shot load of on the water footage with a professional steady cam.

Nice interviews with a few big names in cat sailing and it lays a good foundation to improve your sailing skills on.

It is the best thing since Rick White's sailing for the 90's if you are a novice or intermediate sailor.

For the good sailors aout there (and that means only 20 % of all sailors) this allow you to steal some tricks of the Ashby's, Booth's, Bundock's, Anderson's, Boulogne's out there. Afo course the further you are already the harder it is to find new stuff that benefits you however this DVD does a good job of that. And of course at a certainly level you can only learn from yourself and having a coach. It shows that as well on the DVD and so gives in my opinion a very good picture of cat sailing from novice to professional sailor.

I have absoutely no regrest I bought the DVD. And for all sailors without good fleets nearby to learn from I think this DVD is a must-have next to Rick's sailing for the 90's. Mind you I have some alternatives views here an there but these points are only personal, particular design related and way beyond what you need to know as a novice and internmediate sailors. Actually the DVD underlines at several instances that methods and sailing modes can and do differ between crews and designs and that you should find what suits you and your design bests. It gives good ways to start and later find you own personal preference.

The DVD focusses on Tornado, F18, A-cat and KL 15.5 sailing. But very much in a general sense. Meaning the KL 15.5 stuff is completely general and can be easily transposed on any other design. So too for much of the other boats although you'll learns as wel from the differences between A's and F18's.

The DVD also put a very large focus on spinnaker sailing which I think is good.

I watched the DVD for 3 hours today and still haven't seen all or accessed all topics.


Comes in a nice package

I'm very impressed !

Recieved mine yesterday.Very impressive.Only had a chance to view some of it but it is very well done,nice work.Well worth the money...


Oh man, this is great! GT, thanks for doing this. Will plan to order shortly. On top of some really cool sailing sequences the soundtrack is top notch!

 


can confirm what Wouter wrote about the DVD - very well executed and much to see. I have not seen everything after about 3.5 hours of viewing and there appears to be something for everyone at all skill levels. I wanted to learn from Glen Ashby how to sail an A class cat well and I am glad to have invested the money; the other info is bonus from my perspective. It is a pretty cheap lesson considering that you have excellent camera work, editing, and production featuring arguably the best sailor in the class. It looks like a huge effort to have produced this DVD! I think this is a DVD that I could view many, many times.

Thanks Georges for making this available to us and for your great customer service.

Flumpmaster describes it the exact way to do the purchase. Received mine in 8 days(USA) through the ebay route.
As far as the DVD goes, English/French toggle, images sharp and content so far helpful and in some instances inspired.

 


Ordered this late last Thursday night, received it at 08.00 on Monday. Looks very good.

 


Tillard Thanks.  Just wanted to let you know that it was the post on catsailor.com where I found out about the DVDs and purchased due to their feedback and reviews.  It sounds like the DVDs are a very high quality job and this is much appreciated by the catamaran community here (USA).  Thanks again.  Ed.
