I'm a student doing my thesis project on landsailing and have a few questions (by the way, I've never land sailed before, only sailed in water). First off does a landsailer handle wind and steering the same way as a sail boat (i.e. points of sail such as broad reach, beam reach ect)? Does the sail need to be turned perpendicular to the wind when it's behind the sailer? If there's a different way to handle wind, could someone please direct me to a site that explains it or doodle a quick picture? Much appreciated.

I'm looking for a land yachting equivalent of this:




Unless steering is handle the exact same way.
