USA17 "Dogzilla" rare footage

When you find this very rare footage in a hidden corner of your archives... USA 17 - nickname Dogzilla - training with « regular » carbon mast and sails off San Diego, CA in August 2009.
This rig will break few days later and the mega trimaran owned by Larry Ellison and skipped by James Spirhill will defeat Alinghi 2-0 in the 33rd America‘s Cup match 6 months later in Valencia, Spain equipped with a giant wingsail.
