Stressing?? This isn’t your Sunday beer racing 22’ daysailer…. This is a boat built for waaaaaaay more stress than what’s going on there. And idiot? That’s Alex Thomson - one of the best and well known sailors in the world. Get real.
I can not see for sure but most modern racing sailboats have a kantning keel mechanism. So this "manoeuver" can be done by moving the keel all the way to one side. Perhaps some ballast tanks also.
Incredible skill of the Captain of that boat to keep her in that position.
Air bender himself....oh my oh my...
Джеймс Бонд какой то прямо !! 🔥👍
What Was That Triangle Frame He Worked On at the Top ?
If stressing the mast and keel while waiting for a gust to catapult an idiot is your trick then yes.

that was for an ad… the skipper of a vendée globe boat made it…
What was the purpose of that?
@powerofone1645So what you're saying is you don't know either....
I guess to unblock a rope from a pulley on top of the mast.
So? What trick?
How does the captain make it do that without totally flipping
Keel balance

Unfortunately for Hugo Boss this guy can't sail he basically does tricks and looks slick
I swear sailing videos seem to be a meeting ground for idiotic comments and moronic opinions. Guy got 2nd in the Vendee, which is immense.
