I can't tell from the video (and perhaps you're already well aware), but when it comes time to launch her, it's good practice to tie the front and rear slings together on both sides of the keel with a stout line. The angle of the cutaway forefoot makes it a possibility that the front sling will slide forward and up the bow. We've always had the slings tied for Ariel, so I can't say that I've experienced it personally; I have read about others who have, however. Anyway, something for the FWIW department.
