1st October
Today was a very windy day (force 6-7) as such the sailors were not able to get onto the water so Simon Clark spent the time going through some racing rules tactics and Alan Harris (FdSc Marine Leisure Management & sail maker from Fowey) kindly gave a talk of sail design & Construction.
The windsurfers did get onto the water but the conditions were very gusty and so they worked on maintaining speed and power control, Phil Sanger took the digital video camera and did some video analysis with the guys where was really helpful
The kayakers spent the day in GP kayaks working on forward paddling technique and wash hanging. Glenn Eldridge brought his Racing ski along for the guys to have a go at which highlighted the importance of core strength and static and dynamic stability.
All in all a great afternoon of training in difficult conditions.
