The boats are flying as they hit peak downwind sailing conditions in the South Pacific…the Volvo Ocean Race at its most electrifying!
Expect more like this to be uploaded to the Official Volvo Ocean Race YouTube Channel in the future. Get all the latest updates on www.VolvoOceanRace.com
amazing vid!!!!
PS: what's the sountrack ??
Part II
I haven’t spend so much time with Livestream (apart from the leg starts), but it don’t sound like an reel option.
My final question. Do the editor of the clips have real sailing experience (and understanding)? The only long clips that currently is interesting but very low information shots (image vise) of the crew interviews. Good enoth so but please let the shots of sailing be as long. Especially under tough conditions!!!!

Thank you for your answer. I'm a keen sailor myself and follow the VOR with great interest. I think its great that you have an Youtube channel and publish edited material. But why the rush? Why not show the boats hit five consecutive waves, especially before the big wave etcetera. That will make it possible to interpret the conditions and see the technique used by the helmsman to master the situration.
The raw feeds from the boats are available unedited on Livestream
These are the only boats which can compete at this level, in these conditions on this speeds!
Why so short cuts? It make the images meanless ti watch. Only makes me angry!!!!!
Wow !!!
That's what I'm talking about! This is what we think of when we think of VOR! Awesome footage.
Excellent shallow DOF at 0:56, nice wave at 1:12; massive wake at 1:56, plus lots more!
And to answer the (rhetorical) question at the end of the narration–we already know how much these boats can take–in a lot of cases so far, not that much at all.
1:10 that's awesome !
They all deserve to win.
Some thrilling video!!! GO PUMA!!!!!
This is my favorite leg!! Keep these videos coming 😀
Imagine if they could sail listening that music lol AWESOME
Take away the Sanya part and this is the most awesome sailing video on Youtube!
vamos camper!!
The waves look like raining snow ❄
Are they sailors or submariners?
Speed record in next 24 hrs maybe?
So fucking much spray
That was the beast tube of the series!
@ 112 was great
Awsome!
I bet the maths regarding the forces involved in crashing into waves, is pretty impressive!
