I love sailing and i think its a very underrated sport
I agree, but I think fencing is the most underrated and misunderstood sport.
I do rowing and I understand how you feel
Sailing isn’t a sport, its an experience.
SaddenRain it sure is a sport, it is really hard to keep the boat straight and you need to do that full time.
SaddenRain than u only sailed big boats.
This was a summer i'll never forget,this makes me proud to be british.Every single london 2012 video i watch brings a gut wrenching feeling that its gone,so many happy memories of our small island nation coming together and showing the world we love everyone........
9 months ago the bellow comment was a dream. 5 Days ago I got my first medal on Laser Standard. Current weight 84.900 kg !! Thank you for the inspiration!
happy for you bro
Krasimir Naumov + Congrats !!
Krasimir Naumov skullisland race team. Good job bro

Man I miss racing lasers and 470's! The starts were always very chaotic as we all jockeyed for the best start position, everyone yelling 'STARBOARD!", near misses and sometimes crashes. I truly enjoyed the strategy of the sport as well, stealing wind, looking for good wind and smoother water. Nothing beats the sound of a humming centerboard on a fast broad reach!
Lasers use dagger boards. Broad reach is not really fast.
Why exactly? I simply corrected him.
Brian Campbell Good an ya Roy! Brian your a nit picking non-correct ass. Are you a school teacher who is crap at his job?? In case you missed it he also mentioned 470's which can have humming centreboards, which I agree is a sweet moment especially on a broad reach if the wind is blowing enough! Happy Sailing Roy whatever your craft now...
R Strayer factsss
I’m in 420s right now but yes I agree nothing beats the sound of a humming center board

thx so much i want to watch the race not the people talking
@@adamcaldwell6225 then mute?
45 secondes d'écart entre le 1er et le dernier, c'est dire le niveau, chaque mètre, chaque seconde, chaque manoeuvre tactique comptent, c'est vraiment le haut niveau !!!!!
How cool is this. My very first and own sailboat was a Laser. I learned how to sail on that little fast boat. I never was able to make it fly like these pros did, but it was a blast to sail in all conditions.
Very beautiful tacking of Tom at 30:00.
That tack was money
This is so freaking good to watch !
creo que una de las regatas mas completas y bonitas que uno puede ver...gracias contides gracias tom slingsby...los dos sois maravillosos.gracias.
I’d be turtled before the start
Thanks for the upload
Thanks for the video!
Just love the sailing duel's in this video.
Awesome race! Thanks for upload!
42:25 is an insane cross by GBR
NZL had to duck
@@MsPlaybook what do you mean? I think they probably let GBR cross
Starboard, NZL had to tack behind
@@MsPlaybook NZL is starboard though. They cross again in a few seconds, and NZL ducks if that's what you're looking at. Anyway I also just watched again and I think you can just make out NZ yelling "Protest!"
Sailing is so Much fun
This is why I love sailing!
Man I'dlove some captions on this, the ambient/course audio is so loud that I can't reasonably listen in while working *studiously* in the office.. I swear I am working hard on this fresh and beautiful Friday!
epic broadcast oh my god, the technology
Such a good broadcast
Once again, my favorite Frostbite video
thanks!
i went and watched the medal race for the finns it was fantastic would have loved to seen the lasers too as thats what i sail
Jesus, abs of steel...
+Austin Bass And thighs, too.
and mind above all
12:28 that was a sweet double tack by sweeden.
It’s at 12:18 but yea I agree
I’m a newbie , what was the mistake of pavlo? Was in the starting?
Near the end when he was starting to say it was inevitable, I was worried Slingsby might do a death roll. I'm glad I got to see one, at least kinda. :)
The Kiwi commentator is brilliant!
i love sail
Drones would make this much better for viewing.
I miss racing lasers
Awesome
This looks EXHAUSTING
Oh, that herre OL was my best a good 12 Place ;)
I mean 2. Place :D
how many knots was the wind blowing here? I need this info for a school project.
At the beginning, they say 16-17 knots. But of course, conditions can change mid-race.
Would love LOVE to race there...
Sailing isn't a sport based on athletic ability, its mainly about the strategy
There wasn't much chance of sailors getting a terrible disease by swallowing the water at THIS Olympics.
ushoys I
I `m trying to get back to Sailing after long break and i wonder if i should go back with Laser Standard or with a Finn .I Started to hit the gym pretty hard so i can shape up and i`m currently 94kgs with aim to get 85 lean. I may be able to get Lase cheaper than the Finn so could you please advise if 85 kgs is good for laser i`m 182 tall .
Thanks
Spade Bennet 85 is 2 kg over the optimum weight. It's 72-83 kg for the standard. Your height probably fine aswell.
Thanks very much mate. I`m on a strict diet and training 2 times a day to reach that however having in mind my Broad back/shoulders and mesmorph build i may only be able to go for Finn.
Anyways Thanks ;)
+TheLads Update i dropped to 87 Already ;) And today will be my 4th official Standard training.
Demn that boat is brutal. 2 hours training and i`m spent as dead.
Thank you.
Bulgaria ;)
+Krasimir Naumov as it is mentioned tom slingsby is 83kgs so you'll be fine weighing that much :) even if you start training with me more regularly you'll be able to get quota for the olimpics in brazil
When's the time when the finalist wins?
what's the channel?
So good to watch again and get some inspiration to go hard LOL
For whom does the race exist? The sailors or the spectators?
57 people sail hobies
I can sail
Lol

keren
how come they don't have gloves?
21:07 couldn't Pavlos have sailed under Slingby and forced him up? Drawing a penalty?
No, because Slingsby would have just instantly rolled him
Should I buy a new laser or a old one
I have no idea what's happening.. just waiting for a collision but it never happens
Well, I’m not a laser girl yet, but I will be after I beat some Op races
カッケェ
This is why I sail laser
I thought I understood sailing but apparently not, why are you focused on AUS and CYP if they are in 9th and 10th place. Also if they're in dead last how is he the gold winner????
Ellos se diputada el Oro
Greetings from a Greek laser sailor!
I can sail one of these
i much prefer the irish commentated one
Lovely finish lady.
How. Are.. You.. Today.. Sea..
Standard
30:00
standard
Nice video :)
16:55 17:22
are these laser standards or laser radials?
Radials i think
These are the standards, look at the title. Does it say Laser Radial medal race?
anyone else annoyed that they kept proncouding pavlos kontides name wrong
Oh. I thought german racer pass the final line first.??
Standard. The women race radials
Why did the Cyprus sailor didn't go for the win? he didn't had what to lose... Tom Slingsby is a great sailor. well done for him.
why the spoiler title?
Haha No kidding!
that dont look like 15-16 knots
I go to sailing
sorry it's radial (:
Странно что на фордевинде никто не вынимал шверт
Слишком сильный ветер был вначале, потом стали вынимать.
Who else here is Australian
What happens if a sailor falls out of the boat?
the boat capsizes
Standards
I know how to sail a laser o3o
@@bugrasarpdulundu9601 haahhahahaha
Won't play on utube....... zzzzzzzzzz
Why do you give away the winner in the title? It ruins it for anybody who hasn't seen the race yet. The title should just say "Men's Laser Sailing Gold London Olympics 2012."
My guy this is from 2012 if you don’t know already that’s on you
I agree 100% with you!
Realistically this would have half the views without the Tom slingsby name drop in the title
Rya
У ребят наверно мышцы пресса просто бешеные
Ага так и есть
16:30 why's he got so much outhaul off?
That explains why he ended up last rounding the windward mark lol
Because he has the fitness to keep his sail full power for the whole upwind making him go faster
@@sstreakzzzz he was last because Tom Slingsby was match racing him
@@archie2281 yeah but there's a point with outhaul where the sails got so much curve in it the wind detaches halfway across the sail so you're sailing with less power (?)
@@MontyD correct but what he has on isn’t close to that point. I think the guy who’s ranked the best laser in the world knows how to use controls properly
videos
no
Hil
why does some sailors put their windex in the mast up site down?
+Peter Johanean It stops main-sheets getting caught on it on crowded start lines, a useful thing to do in class racing.
+Alex Mayger Do you mean the mainsheets from other boats?
thank you for your answer
Yes
OK
But it shows the same Wind?
+Peter Johanean Yup. It's definitely worth doing it, has no disadvantages.
popa rosa
LOL
My goodness they're getting wet !!
下手くそがいるー
this is why few people watch sailling. I'm in the industry and love it but this video has so much dead time. It is poorly produced.
The stupid path peroperativly tease because cause unequivocally joke regarding a strong copper. blushing, outgoing red
