About this class
Racing starts determine whether you cross the line at full speed in clear air or stuck in traffic at the back of the fleet, and this class teaches the timing, positioning, and rules that create a clean start. You practice the countdown approach, the dial-up and dip-start maneuvers, and how to judge time and distance to the line under pressure. The session includes racing against other boats in a series of short starts.
