To fly over the water with top speed is a fantastic feeling –  pure adrenaline for the body. But how do I manage to achieve this? What can I improve in terms of technique and equipment trim? 

Prasonisi's flat water side is the ideal spot for improving speed technique and and one of the big stars of speed sailing will be on hand to coach you!  David White - the offical British speed champion with 44.03kn (81.5 km/h) - will coach you 6 days in a row. David is an excellent coach with a good sense of humor. You may look forward to a week full of fun and learing progress.    
High speed is not only for speed freaks – it is also the basis for all planing manoeuvres. To know about the right technique and about the possibilities of equipment trimming is of crucial importance for sailors of all levels.
The focus of our speed week will be on learing and improving your planing technique. You will be coached on free ride equipment and put the hence learnt into practice on race/slalom equipment. During training each participant will be equiped with a GPS speed meter of the Procenter. You will therefore be able to check at any time what kind of progress you have made. 

Entrance level for the training:  waterstarting, harness and footstraps. A maximum of 15 participants will be accepted. As such David will have the chance  to coach everyone according to their individual needs and level. At the end of the week we will hold the „Prasonisi Speed Trophy". The fastest will win great prizes. 

Participants will be coached in English. The minimum number of participants is 9. If the minimum number of paricipants is not met the organiser has the right to cancel the event up to one month prior to the scheduled event date.
