Package 4:
RS:X Reach-4-the-Top Training Partner Programme

Are you looking to boost your speed?

 

On which point of sailing are you fastest?

 

How does your speed compare to others?

 

Do you have some international experience?


Would a training partner help you answer these questions and many more?


We may be able to help

Your training partner will NOT be your coach but he or she will train with you. Training with someone of a similar standard can provide a real stimulus to your motivation. You will work harder and better. You will really focus. You will get more out of each session AND you will no longer be training alone.

The secret is not to train longer but to train smarter and therefore better.


Are you going as fast as you can on all points of sail?

You will be able to compare your performance on all points of sail with a known quantity giving you useful feedback on how far on or off the pace you really are

How does your range of techniques compare with  those of a top racer?

By watching your training partner, you will be able to see techniques in practice that perhaps you should integrate into your own racing

Are you setting up your gear right?

By comparing the set-up of your gear with his or hers, you will perhaps be able to make some improvements in your all round performance

 

How should you change that set-up for different wind and sea conditions?

Check this out… Does the boom vary in height depending on the wind conditions? Is the foot strap placement the same? What about the position of the mast base?

 

Do you get stressed out and start to panic?

You may notice that your training partner has a useful technique to enable him to focus on the job-in-hand.

A training partner is not a coach

One thing is clear. A training partner is not a coach. They are not there to act as one. They are there to act as a ‘trials horse’ so that you can compare your performance and set up to theirs

Answer your own questions

By observing an experienced training partner, you may be able to answer questions for yourself. He/she has probably been there, done that and may be even gone home with a medal. The quickest way to achieve success is to mirror their strategies to achieve success.

Success breeds success, right?

Right… so give us a call and we’ll identify a successful training partner for you

Please note:
This package can be booked as a one-off or a series of sessions. Each session may last just one day or be over a more extended period of time. Cost therefore depends on these two factors and will be quoted upon application.
