great video. I'm a winger without any other surf background getting ready to try this. I understand you step back a little as you're getting up on foil, Is the reason you're initially further forward that you want the board to reach the speed of the wave before you take off so that you'll stay on foil?
I have some sup experience.One of my best boards that i ride is jp 8ft 28 in.....I am 62-63 kg no experience in sup foilng.I just bought aa SIC mako 6ft 5in x27inx 117 litre.Would this be a wise choice if i was focussed on stability,when it comes to surf stance when paddling into a wave??.I have a 2gen foil drive that i would eventually hook on to my mast when or if i get confident with the mako.Please be upfront .I enjoyed your SUP FOIL SUERFING technique
Great tips -- I've been having trouble with the nose of my board diving under the water - especially if there is some chop because I'm trying to be forward on the board -- as I've found that does help catch the unbroken waves... but to get the 'bounce' I've seen in videos showing catching swell bump for downwinding - I was rocking onto the backfoot, then weighting the front as the paddle comes up out of the water to be set again in front of the nose. By 'driving with the back foot' - it seems like your weight is more or less always over the back foot - the front foot is lightly weighted when throwing the paddle, then basically lifting up as the stroke happens to unweight the foil /weight the back foot. but because the back foot is a little forward, it's not causing the board to fall out the back of the wave /let the wave roll under you? --that's what was happening to me if I tried previously to not weight the front foot - seemed like the wave would just pass under and not engage the board/foil at all... so I've been maybe 40% catching unbroken wave 60% digging the nose in and failing... any feedback? (other than get a different board ha ha) -- I'm on Kalama Performance 5'6" -- I'm guessing it's more me and not the equipment... I've been flying gofoil IWA with Kai back wing
Hey Jason. It's hard to say exactly what's going on without seeing you in person or video. My hunch is that it's less about your foot pressure and more about the timing and power you're producing when you paddle for the wave. Watch the videos on using your hips and focus on short, fast strokes to get your board up to speed while producing power. Foiling is dynamic so it's likely a large combination of things that are preventing you from consistently taking off. Get some video or better yet, come down when things open up! ruclips.net/video/iLyfO78kFQs/видео.html
So I have a Armstrong 2400cf foil set up. and an 8 foot hypernut foil board. Im 185lbs SUP surfing east coast USA mush for the last decade. Do you think SUP foiling an Armstrong 6’6” SUP foil board would be a better board to learn SUP foiling on? THX for the incredibly helpful vid
Thanks for this video! I also found these instructions: Firstly you must position your front foot on the rail ahead of the pad, and your back foot as far back as possible on the opposing rail, all your weight should be on your front leg and both feet must face forward, especially the back foot. All your weight should be on the front foot. this is key, a bit like a fencing position: rear foot far back, but all your weight on the front foot. Lean your torso forward, the goal is to play with your balance by raising and lowering your torso without standing up straight. When you stand up straight you put weight on your back leg and will stall and sink the board this is why you must stay in a forward leaning position at all times. Having a very short stiff paddle (your height or shorter) is of the essence. - It seems contradictory to what you show us here. Do you want to put the weight on our front foot (like in the instructions) and then lift with the front foot (like you mention)? Cheers!
Found the stop start nature, and cursor moving around and dialogue not very watchable. clicked esc. sure you have some good points, but not a good watch for me.

Hi awesome! You believe it's possibile also with a Reptile High 2000, 1050×245, area 2000 cm?

Thanks for the great foil tutorials! Was wondering if it is better to learn on a high aspect foil wing or low aspect for foil sup.
What size wing are you on and fuselage length - thanks for the thoughtful approach to your video!
I'm also interested to know all this information and the size of the board a beginner should have in this conditions.
Paddle length? Head high or what's best please?

What is paddle length relative to your height?

What's the secret to paddling on one side and making the board go straight?
