Look closely and you will see that there are several times when she gives the driver a definite signal about making a sudden correction - and that she does so a moment before the driver is able to see what she sees (perhaps this is sometimes because his view is partly blocked, but still, those signals were KEY factors a few times).

      Her job is to be movable "ballast". The boat goes fastest with the bow up out of the water, but it won't turn well like that. For the turns, the bow needs to be down into the water to keep the boat from spining out. Her job is to shift her weight around as needed for the best overall speed. You see this in motorcycle side car racing as well.

    The way she holds the boat, places her feet, her motion and position have such a level of precision that the execution simply is crisp. She even warns or reminds the pilot of places to pay extra attention on the track. These two make a FANTASTIC TEAM.

    Didn’t even know this sport existed, frig’n amazing! Back in the day was the monkey a few times in a racing sidecar. Very impressed by Tahlia’s skill & courage along with Andrew’s piloting. I would have been one of the back marker boats cheering you on 👍😀😎

      I'm wondering is the helmet an OH&S thing, and lucky we don't have those jumping carp over here.

      You forgot the champagne cork for the butt, to have something to clench.
