Diet, Fitness & other personal prep
Boat preperation
Teaching / coaching techniques

Harry the Hamster 3 years ago

Lots of possibilities eg:
Slowing the boat (yes you do need to)
Tactics eg tight/loose covering, mark-rounding
Boat preparation
Diet, Fitness & other personal-prep
Exploiting rules (eg efficient luffs, breaking overlaps)
Rule 42 dos/dont's (eg have all the TTs actually been legal ;-))
More on training/coaching techniques
Etc

A.C. obviously noticed the expiration date on the coverage, Sept 1, 2009. Technique Tuesday certainly does not have to stop, but now that the series is 40 episodes old, maybe it is time for a new season.

What, if any, changes should be made? What topics or boats have not been explained thoroughly enough? What would you like to see in the 09-10 season of TT?

What?!? 3 years ago

Who said TT was over???

3 years ago

now that this is over. will there be tactic thurday?
