Phase: Downwind | Owner (6-person): Tactician
While the pair sails the kite, this seat looks outward: monitor fleet position and lanes, call pressure and shifts coming from behind, weigh gybing for air against staying hot, and call the gybes (Throw the mainsail when the call is taken) and the douse for the next beat. On a ULDB the downwind leg is won by the brain that stays free — don’t hand him a rope.
