James Clappier demonstrates a great technique to improve your light air jibes. Just another move to make you a rock star crew.

It might have been nice to see some gybes to a reach, since that is a common move in light air. Also, that is when you most often have a problem with your batten becoming inverted, as the boom comes all the way in, especially when the boat is over flattened. Otherwise, great to see Chris Love back in an FJ getting ready for the BU alumni regatta!

James is normally a skipper and I haven't been in a boat in a while. We need some practice...
