Wind + Waves in Lanzarote for USA 50 Racing!

Happy New Year! We are thrilled to start 2023 off with a bang: spending 6 weeks training hard with the international Nacra fleet in Lanzarote, Canary Islands (Spain) in big wind and waves! The training here has been incredible, and we are proud to say that we have made an immense amount of progress on downwind speed (as was our goal after 2022 Worlds) as well as lots of progress on upwind performance.

Last year was a milestone year for our team. We brought Tom Zajac (2016 Bronze medalist) onboard our team as coach and ramped up our training program by increasing our on-the-water hours. With Princess Sofia Trophy coming up in March, French Olympic Week in April, and the Olympic Test Event, World Champs, and Pan Ams later this year we have much to look forward to, and plenty of opportunities to see our hard work out manifest on the race course.
