Review after several thousand miles of wing and now parawing use.

Out of interest, when looking at the “upwind ability” section do you chose to gybe when tracking upwind?
It just depends on the day and conditions. I’m never racing upwind with times in mind (but yes tacking would be faster). In the article those lines are from a section of river that is really weedy on the sides. I think I can see and dodge weeds better when gybing. With tacking sometimes I come around and it’s too late, I’ve tacked into something I can’t avoid.
These tracks are primarily tacks. Upwinding from the Hatch to Viento. No weeds.
