I haven't followed this thread but because it is so long, I finally watched the video.
I don't know what the commentator is going on about, but he keeps saying, "no wind,....no wind,.. no wind", yet every video shows,...wind, on the water, when the tri is sailing.
Kind of reminds me of kids in sailboats that call you on the phone and say, "Dad, can you come out and give us a tow back in,
there's no wind"
Then the Dad looks around the harbor,.." No wind,..? Then how come the trees are moving?"
When somebody starts sailing in no wind, wake me up.
