A-Class Worlds @Takapuna: Practice Race Results
Images: Nathan & Beau Outteridge. | Reviewing the results, comments I’ve received and conditions from the NZ Nats, and with the conditions they had yesterday it seems Nathan’s Exploder Js extra lift payed this time going airborne in below 10 knots? The Exploder Js extra lift gave him some issues at the NZ Nats for ie when he capsized near the finish in race one , then he got 4,6, and a 7th. Today Monday he won the practice race. Although we don´t know yet if someone ahead of him didn´t finish on superstition.. Update: ISAF report confirms 10knots and that Nathan won by a minute…
Again hoping to have a wide range of conditions for a true allround racing test for new developments.
