Description

We’re back from an extended break with a fresh run of Sailfaster episodes—and we’re kicking things off with something a little different. This special compilation brings together insights from five of the sharpest minds in the sport: Luke Lawrence, Tom Burnham, Kristen Robinson, Scott Nixon, and Steph Roble.  Together, they break down one of the most decisive moments on the racecourse: the windward mark rounding. From final approach strategy to mark-rounding choreography, from the often-overlooked offset leg to the all-important exit, each guest shares practical, hard-won wisdom from years at the top.  Whether you’re clawing for inches or chasing boatlengths, this episode is packed with expert tips to help you convert upwind gains into a commanding downwind launch.
