J92 in action

[Tracy Rogers]

One thing you can say about J92's is that they photograph well. This was from a race last month on south San Francisco Bay.

Here's time-lapse video of our 1st race of the season Saturday.

The camera battery gave out just after we got the #3 up after the broach, about 20-30 minutes before the turning mark. We hit 15+ knots boat speed several times before the broach with gusts as high as 30kts. 

The ride back was a boring close reach with a bit of chop. We took 3rd place out of 13 double-handed racers.

That kite looks tiny. Any idea on the size/specifics of it?  I assume it is some kind of high-clewed blast reacher???

The #3 jib is 110%.

The main flakes perfectly if you alternate the folds on the luff and pull out any creases religiously. Then all you have to do is match the folds on the leech to the luff (they'll be quite wide flakes, don't skimp!). If you have *any* creases, you've got something out of alignment.
