I know this is very very late but I had 2 questions to do with what the helm is doing: 1) What is the helm supposed to do with the jib sheet upwind? 2) What is the helm doing with the mainsheet downwind? For both of these why would you pull the sail in or let it out?

Hello! 29er Helm here 👋🏼 On the upwind I always have the jib sheet in my hand and work with it. But that has a lot to do with the wind and wave conditions. Very basic: open it a little in light wind and close it tightly in stronger wind. I always open the jib before a tack, more or less depending on the wind. As soon as I have the jib sheet in my hand again, I close it back to the optimal position. On downwind, I'm also playing with the mainsheet. I open the main, luff a little to get pressure. With the pressure I go down again and close the main a little. That creates a little bit of a pump. Hope that helps!

does the skipper controll the jib upwind?

Yes. It's also a self-tacking jib, it is sheeted to a block on a track that moves when we tack.
