A-CAT Clinic by Tymoteusz Bendik
About me
I’m the currently the 3rd A-class sailor from 2019 World Championships in Weymouth with a lot of other national titles (A-class, F-18, Nacra 17, 49er). I’m closely cooperating with Exploder and Bryt Sails what gives me great insight in the newest technology and development in the class. Also, as an official A-class and F18 measurer I’m up to date with the class rules and newest solutions. As a member of the Polish National Sailing Team my focus is sailing, and I have a lot to share in tactics, strategy, boat setting and a physical preparation.
