The asym jibe isn't really any harder than jibing the genoa for me. Only do it in light air for cruising, heavy air we'll roll the genoa out.

As a matter of fact, I'm too lazy to do any kind of spinnaker gybe when cruising!

I have a set of the Tacker and the sock and they make handling of the spinnaker much easier, especially if you are shorthanded. I still find that flying a chute (shorthanded) requires that the wind is reasonably steady and that you can run it for a while (setting it up and taking it down takes a little while).
