I agree with Shawn on the moderate tracking. It isall well and good to track straight and turn when edged. The problem is that in windy conditions you have waves to contend with, and your ability to edge is greatly reduced. The worse the conditions, the less you can edge. So, when you need to edge the most, you have the least ability to edge.
