Event #447

Aimed at those who have just moved into the 29er and would like support for on and off the water. The support will involve a briefing before racing to help you with set up and answer any questions. The coach will walk around the boat park and be on hand to help check settings and kites. They can also help introduce you to any of the older sailors who are really helpful but might be a bit daunting to ask. On the water, they can take a food bag (but so can other ribs) and be available for a quick chat in between races with any helpful coaching tips. After sailing, there will be a quick chat as a group or individually to make sure you are ready for the next day. The idea is to make you feel happy and confident for your first few GPS. 

The coach isn’t there for safety or to make the decision on whether you should sail - that decision still comes down to the sailor. 

Any questions on whether this applies to you or whether you are ready for a GP, please email our class coach Alice at coach@29ersailing.org.uk
