    Ausschreibung der YOUTH SAILING & WATERSPORT CHALLENGE 2017 Bundesleistungszentrum Neusiedl am See 27.08.2017 – 03.09.2017 (Teil 1 – Youth Sailing 2017) 08.09.2017 – 10.09.2017 (Teil 2 – Watersport & SUP Challenge 2017) Ein M.K. Kooperationsprojekt des Allgemeinen Sportverband Österreichs (ASVÖ) und des Österreichischen Segelverbandes (OeSV), gefördert aus Mitteln des BSFF Zentrale Strategie und Projekthintergrund: Unter Einhaltung der im OeSV – Nachwuchskonzept INSPIRE 24 für Phase 1 und 2 vorgegebenen Zielsetzungen ist eine zusätzliche Verstärkung für die Umsetzung des Bereiches der segelsportlichen Vielseitigkeitsentwicklung immer wichtiger geworden. Speziell die teilweise fehlende Ausstattung an notwendigen Ausbildungsmaterialien in den Segelklubs und deren entsprechenden Einsatzmöglichkeiten benötigen neue Wege der Demonstration und Präsentation. Im österreichischen Segelsport ist die Anzahl der segelnden Jugendliche überschaubar. Die traditionellen Trainingsformen (vgl. einseitig) halten viele potentielle Nachwuchsegler von einem Engagement im Segel / Regattasegelsport ab. Auch viele Segelvereine in Österreich haben das Problem zu weniger Kinder / Jugendlicher für ihre Nachwuchsarbeit. Diese Projekt soll durch seine Vielseitigkeit, das neue innovative Format, durch die gebotene Auseinandersetzung mit „actionreichen“ Bootsklassen 29er, 49erFX, TopCat K1, Hobie Dragoon & Hobie16, Kite Surfen , Surfen, etc. Auch der „Schnuppercharakter“ sollte helfen Zugangsbarrieren zu vermindern.

  • 29Er Tuning Guide by Scott Babbage 2Nd & 3Rd 29Er Worlds
    29er Tuning Guide by Scott Babbage 2nd & 3rd 29er Worlds Tune up - Part 1 - Bits of string and what they do Thursday 29th Jun 2006 Clynton from Bethwaite Design asked me to write a few things on 29er tuning. A 29er is a very simple boat to tune, there are few adjustments. So this can't be too hard. Now it's possible to get around at the front of the fleet with a variety of settings compared to the competition. It all depends on how you sail the boat and what you're trying to achieve at the time. So here's the first part - a list of the available adjustments - including major and minor adjustments. It's difficult to explain settings in plain english, so I've jotted down a few simple points on what each adjustment does. It is key (and simple) to understand the impact each has on your boat, then you can make your own call on when you'd change one or the other. So here goes... 1. Main sheet Simple. More main = more power. Eased to keep the boat flat, but not before maximum crew weight is used. Kept on centreline to provide height. Used to maintain leech tension without vang. Kept close to centre downwind to keep the mast up, spinnaker luff on and steering balanced. 2. Jib sheet More jib = more power. Too much jib = stall. Sheet cracked 1-2 to breathe when required (ie. chop, gusts, speed). Eased completely on tight spinnaker legs to get height. Eased lots downwind keeps the bow up.

  • 29Er COACHING MANUAL
    29er COACHING MANUAL International 29er Class Association Introduction The focus of this manual is as a quick reference for your 29er rig setup and sailing in various con- ditions including coaching tips and exercises, described in words, photos and video clips. It is split into several sections – Rigging for Light, Medium and Heavy Winds, Training Exercises, Planning for a Major Regatta, Comments on Coaching, Care & Maintenance of the 29er. As each section is completed it will be added to the www.29er.org webpage under the Technical Sec- tion. We would welcome feedback regarding the information, whether it is easy to understand or more description and photos are required. Any specific conditions that you have at your home club would be fun to hear about and perhaps we can help you if you write to us ([email protected]) and describe the situations that you may be having difficulty with. We are committed to making this manual as current as possible and have enlisted the advice of many of the class champions over the past 2 years. If you have a technique that works and would like to share it with us, please send it in and we’ll put it up with your name and home club. In the Rigging for Light, Medium and Heavy Winds section, we are assuming that you have already rigged your boat. If you are unsure about how to do this, there is a 29er Rigging Manual already posted to the bethwaite.com website. Going Sailing and What to Wear The most important thing to think about before you hit the water is your clothing.
