A nice video of fantastic conditions at Nationals this year. Vitamin J struggled a bit with the spinnaker on this leg but the video kept rolling. If the bowman sees this I’d like to no what video gear you were using.

Great footage from the ISAF World Cup in Kiel this past June.

This is less about the North Americans, and more about the spirit of sailing. A nicely done video which follows the Lake Minnetonka based crew of Oz during the first day of racing. John Gjerde and Rolf Turnquist have been sailing J24′s for as long as anyone:

Is this a third video in the series?
First there was “Sleepiest Sailing Video Ever?,” a video of a race in Monaco in very little wind. This was followed up by “Not Sleepy,” which showed a German boat flying a spinnaker in 40-50 knots of breeze.
Now comes a new video from the Monaco author where he seems to be promoting J24 for the “grown up” set, if the title “J 24 Adulte” is any clue. The video begins with a laid back couple out for a sail in the picturesque bay off of Monaco, but once they meet up with a A-Class sailor things really take off!
“Beintot Class A”

These guys are claiming 6-7 on the Beaufort scale. Definitely a more “traditional” sailing vid (see Sleepiest Sailing Video Ever?):

From the 2008 InterBanque J/24 Final in Monaco (whatever that is); no wind, no heavy metal guitar soundtrack, but a nice video all the same:
“Un vent extreme!”
