(Charlie O'Learys class IV at speed) Landsailing is the sport of moving over sand and land using a board carrying a sail for propulsion by the wind, in other words, it is a sport of sailing and racing on land in modified boats. A landyacht is basically a sailbot that travels on small wheels on the surface of land. It is (the landyacht) a wind-driven board, usually light and comparatively small, mounted on 3 wheels. The front wheel is attached to a certain system of controlling. The sail is about 5 square meters in area (and depends on the type of landyacht). The sailor sits on the board (or sometimes lays on it) while his uses his hands and feet to control the landyacht, note that the landyacht does not use any fuel. The board on which the sailor lays is about 1.7 meters in length (and varies), and it is quite narrow. There are many types of landyachts, what you will mostly see in this site is the Manta and Seagull types. (flags showing the wind speed of 25 mph at the starting line of 1998 Americas Cup Regatta ) A landyacht that is sailing downwind can reach no greater a speed than that of the wind itself. But a landyacht can reach much faster speeds when it sails across the wind rather than being pushed along by it (actually it can go 5 times as fast as the wind), since the landyacht creates a wind from the velocity of its own movement that greatly supplements the natural wind. These principles were only vaguely understood in the early days of landsailing.

2. Physics Of Landsailing Explains gravity and aerodynamic forces for the enthusiast. Includes links to related sites. http://www.physicsoflandsailing.com/

Physics of Landsailing LANDSAILING “ Science is thinking empirically about reality. Science is acquaintance, not knowledge. It can never be absolute ” “Osho” Rajneesh. Landsailing is a very demanding sport requiring exceptional skills, eye-hand-leg co-ordination of a very high caliber, dexterity, mental perspicacity and high reflexes. There are many types of Landsailing crafts of which class – 3 and class – 5 are more often used. Controlling the craft requires controlling the sail the operation of which is almost akin to normal water boat. You are required to navigate with your legs and the sail you control with a sheet rope – just pull the rope to sheet in and refrain from pulling the rope for sheeting out. It has been well documented that sailboats have the potential to go faster than the accompanying wind! Land sailing crafts can reach 2 to 3 times the speed of the accompanying wind, of course, under ideal situations. Under normal wind conditions, a land sail may reach even 50 mph, but you can cruise within a safer speed of about 20 to 40 mph bracket. The most important aspect of land sailing is the total balance you get in relation to the center of gravity of the craft and the center of action, which should match, merge or coincide. The weight should be evenly distributed in the front, in the mid-section and the rear side. An appropriately balanced sail with that of the mast is bound to build the sail in proper shape; with a ‘twist’ that is idea. What is twist?

The current landsailing speed record is mph , set March 20th 1999, set here at Ivanpah Dry Lake, 45 minutes outside of Las Vegas. The Manta can be set up for landsailing action in 5 minutes. The ultra-lightness is revolutionary because it permits exciting operation even in small areas. The WinJammer weighs just 70 lbs, with a fully battened sail of 45 sq/ft and a turning radius under 6 feet. The TwinJammer weighs 105 lbs, carries 59 sq/ft of sail and has a turning radius of 8.5 feet. The incredible acceleration and maneuverability let them make the most of any site.

More on Land Sailing zoom+ Racing Locations FAQ's The is a recreational cart (not designed for competition) with three wheels and you use your feet to steer. It is a traditional landsailor except for the body which is molded fiberglass. The will also be an ice sailor. With the inflatable tire option, it can be sailed on soft surfaces such as wet sand or loose or soft dirt. The has a total weight of fifty pounds. It is designed for the active 13-year-old as well as the senior citizen. Even for non-sailors, the techniques are quick and easy to learn. The is propelled by a single, small but optimum sail of approximately 30 square feet intended for winds 10 to 25 m.p.h. The steering bar on the front wheel assembly can be extended or retracted to fit the user. Like a sailboat, when sailing the the user leans from side to side keeping the weight on the wind-ward side of the cart (the side from which the wind is blowing) therefore keeping the unit upright. However, the wide rear axles (five feet from wheel to wheel) gives the its basic stability. The unit can be sailed at speeds of up to 30 m.p.h. Braking is accomplished with a hand grip mounted on the body much like a bicycle which when applied. Like sail boats, speed can be reduced by releasing the sail and letting the air spill from its surface reducing the stopping distance and allowing the brake to be more effective.
