Emirates Team NZ have done something with their wings that no other team attempted.
But why would they risk such an structurally unstable wing?
Tom Morris talks everything foil related with Tom Partington and Rob Gullan with a full digest of the race wings of Americas Cup 37.

In this video Morris is going to show you those differences talk about the performance characteristics they may lead to, and contrast them with the challenging teams.
