This is a video of a clinic we had a couple of weeks ago in Long Beach, CA the location for the 2009 NAF18 North Americans. Thought it might be nice to show you the venue so you can look forward to sailing. This includes some of inside the harbor, outside, and off the shore of Seal Beach. These are all places that they plan to sail us in a couple of weeks time. All are close to the bay entrance where we will be storing the boats for over night. They are also very fun and different sailing conditions.

There are two videos one has less shaking but may be a bit more blurry

This was shot on Sunday - the breeze was a bit lighter, I think. You can expect very similar conditions (just double-trap uphill) in the early part of the day for the Championship, building a bit in the early afternoons to solid single-trap downhill. Only two and a half weeks to go!
