What do outsiders think of sailing? I spend a lot of time pondering this very question, and recently concluded that our sport could perhaps take some cues from professional wrestling and the fascinating world of Lucha libre. This trapeze artist captures what I consider the essence of combining the two disciplines: physicality with a twist of sadomasochistic elegance. If you can’t beat him around the track, pin him to it. —Dr. Crash
