Nice summary of the best pro tips! These helped me a lot, cause i feel them more and more now, specially to let your board rise by bending your knees quickly and not pushing it down over and over. Keep flying;)
I love the concept of feel vs push and will try it to help me with my kite foiling but i would try learn dock starting with a foil drive since i only have mortal foil skills
@gaeldanielemate, so i went for a kite foil sesh yesterday and i remembered your advice, i didn’t try so hard just tried to me smooth and feel everything, it was my best session yet, i felt drunk with happiness when i got off the water like the first time i body dragged behind a kite or the first time i foiled at all :)! Thank you! Also, with the kite you can kina use it like a foil drive, just push out the bar to depower the kite and try pump for a but, its not the same of course cause the kite always gives your some thrust and some weightlessness but its still so nice. Also used a single skin peak kite for the second time and that thing is like a portal to the moon gravity in a pencil case.
Hi Gael ! Once again, precious tips… TKS!! I like particularly the honest question of time… « maybe it’s going to take you 2-3 years… » ! Yes… there must be commitment. I am around 60 and it takes even longer to get the feeling (but this is SOOO good.. especially with my new Ketos 1570!!). Cheers!

foil drive really helps with 'feeling' since you immediately understand when you're losing height - and you can recover mistake and improve faster
