Key points:

• Aim two boat lengths below the leeward mark so you can harden up when the kite is dropping
• Sail the boat as fast as possible until you have to start the drop
  
  
  

Helm

Concentrate on angle to the leeward mark.

Try to aim a few boat lengths below it so that when the kite is dropping you can head up to maintain speed.

Crew

Fly the kite at its optimum and balance the boat until the helm calls for the drop.
