Mischa Heemskerk video reports upwind foiling

Mischa has published a video reporting he is foiling upwind with new 'L' rudders first used by Fischer in the Mayfly.
Heemskerk was part of the team that pioneered efficient flights within legal configuration along with PJ & Arno from DNA. First dedicated efforts within my knowledge was Martin Fischer Mayfly in 2011.

Mischa's sailing and work lead to the Takapuna breakthrough where Ashby , Tuke, Burling & Outteridge dominated the event on the downwind foiling mode.
Following this evoloution it is not rare to see at next 2015 Worlds at Punta Ala a new milestone in the class development with a new breed of upwind foilers.
