For downwind, I loosen it to zero pressure (or thereabouts).

Subject: Stus-List Backstay adjustment downwind

 

I am going to try to focus more on backstay adjustment when racing this
summer.  I keep reading and being told that it is really important to adjust
for optimal speed.  One thing I have not encountered is a guide to off-wind
backstay adjustment.  I would suspect that on any angle beyond a close reach
it may not matter much.  What do others do off the wind?  Thanks- Dave
