NSCA Southern Area Training Day
Hayling Island SC hosted a NSCA training day on 24th April. 14 sailors enjoyed champagne sailing conditions with cloudless skies and a moderate easterly breeze Olly Davenport was the coach for the event and started the day with a detailed session covering rig set up, sail trimming and body position and movement, this stimulated healthy debate and discussion
After a brief break a 2 hour on water session took place between Emsworth Channel and East Head. Olly ran a number of gate starts, following individual sailors upwind in the rib giving real time feedback of set up and technique. 4 line start races followed, again with Olly providing bespoke and individual feedback from the rib The day ended with a brief sum up session with all attendees with smiles on their faces a lovely suntan Special thanks go to Doug Latta and Greg Swift (HISC Solo Class Captain) for giving up a Friday to man the 2nd rib and of course to HISC and to Olly Our next NSCA Southern Area training day is set for Friday the 10th July at Felpham, again with Olly, - planning for this event has already started with details to follow soon
