Projects

Land sailing

I saw a few pictures online of land yachts, and thought it woudl be a good weekend project. 4 months later, I was finished:)

I took it to the Nevada desert in March for the America's Landsailing Cup. I placed 9th in my class, which sounds impressive until you learn I was only competing in a field of 15. It's a very small sport in the US.

Here's what it looked like putting some finishing touches on a new sail at Noisebridge.

I wrote a blog post about it.

Here's some video I took during the America's Landsailing Cup, and some unedited video from just playing around and practicing.
