the key to success is building a process for improvement.

 

Whether in school, business, or relationships, top level performance in any endeavor comes from practice paired with a concrete process for learning.  

Let us guide you in developing that process through the sport of sailing.

The next generation is coming... These boys ripping up the Bay and looking sharper every day! After a lot of planning and coordination, we have quite the squad here in San Francisco this summer! It has been awesome to see everyone rally to help each other with logistics, and with a solid home base in place we’re ready to do work! Excited for what the summer has in store. Stay tuned to #challengerfx for shenanigans, daily tips, and updates. #frothy
Focus. The details make all the difference!
A bit slower and a bit saltier than usual... But loving putting it all together! Most sailing I’ve done in a long time this month, playing chess master with the @ucsbsailing team and the @saltybrotherfilms . Fun to get out there and remind @ryan.eastwood @quinnlakewilson and #Bubby who’s still the boss 🙃 thanks for the 📸 @saltybrotherfilms
Focus on the details, and the teams in the rear view fade away #norestdays Whirlwind couple of weeks ripping around the world! Happy to be back on this side of the marble 🌎
How often do you train by yourself? Talk is cheap - go do the work. These guys put in 100 hours in a few months, of ripping around alone, grooving in the boat. Getting to the top in junior sailing can be as easy as filling your head with a coach’s advice, but if you want to make it beyond the youth levels you need to own your learning process. 3420 days until Long Beach 2028. Make them count! #lovetheprocess #wednesdaywisdom
Live action this afternoon with @atunnicliffetobias and @parishenken! Tune in on @atunnicliffetobias ‘s story at 1300 eastern time for some Biscayne Bay training!
Camping with buddies, coaching during the day, kiting in the evenings, photography in the golden hours... In the summer of 2014 I had no idea where the adventure was headed, but five years down the road, it sure has been a wild ride! The last three years have been a crash course in top level coaching with the @ussailingteam but a new chapter is on the horizon and I’m pumped for the next part of the story! 📸@johnkelseyphoto #tbt #waterman #kite #49er
“Ameteurs want to hear comforting lies. Professionals want to hear uncomfortable truths.” Just heard that one and loved it. Which one are you? Which one is your crew or skipper?! Scrapping your way to the top requires a relentless dedication to objective evaluation. The best athletes I work with want objective feedback. Sometimes that’s a difficult message, but at the end of the day, if the focus is on the process and the needle is moving in the right direction, the “feel good” comes from the work you put in. Big week in Miami this week before heading to Palma for the start of the spring circuit! #wednesdaywisdom #viper #biscaynebay #miami

Every detail around the race course is a grain of sand, refined over and over and over again, adding to a big beautiful pearl. Many teams want to jump straight into the fray, racing, showing what they’ve put together before it’s ready.
