The most dangerous fruit we tried - was in Chiang Mai. We found this "alien" fruit at a night market, and the vendor gave us a strict warning: "Don't eat the seeds, or you'll get poisoned." 💀 Meet Gac fruit a legendary superfood with 70x more lycopene than tomatoes and a taste that completely changes as you eat it. But to unlock the flavor, you have to follow the ritual: 1️⃣ Start with the deep red membrane around the seeds (pure lycopene!) 2️⃣ Move to the orange flesh in the center 3️⃣ Finish with the fresh juice At first, the taste is confusing. Then it hits you a radical shift from earthy to creamy vibes. I’ve always believed you don’t just visit a country - you taste its soul. And my thought that night? We only live once. Turns out, it was the best decision of the evening. Would you risk it for a taste? 👇
Quick guide to setting the kicker in an Optimist dinghy for strong winds. Sorry about the audio, it was windy! Strong winds means when the sailor is hiking upwind and having to ease the mainsheet in gusts. Lots of kicker will make the boat easier to sail upwind and reduce leech twist and therefore rolling downwind. Ideally also look to rake the mast forwards to balance the centre of effort in the sail and avoid excess weather helm in strong winds.
