Best Jibing tutorial ever made...

Best jibe video I have seen! Thanks

btw, this video has truly improved my jibing this season. However, one thing they lack to mention is to flip the sail when the board is facing downwind. I use to flip when I've passed downwind direction and causes me to stall the board when flipping the sail. Also, when going downwind and you about to change your stance, they mention stepping in front of board, this truly does help keep the board planing and feels like a surf board on a wave with continuous plane. This is the point where you flip and in some cases I feel the perfect flip is when the cambers auto switch. Still trying to perfect the crossing of arms and not touching the mast at times. Its a great feeling planing out of a jibe. Luv these TWS videos. Very professionally done.

Thanks, couldn’t get it better!!!

very well done instruction, thanks a bundle!

in regards to the order of locking your foot in the straps after the direction change and sail flip, on my Hawk 111 using a large, [7.0 Ezzy Cheetah] sail, in a steady breeze of 13 to 19 knots, I find the board maintains a plane away from the jibe better if I put my back foot in the strap first then hook in and place my front foot in the strap. These videos are EXCELLENT, Tenerife Windsurf, Fanatic and North deserve praise! Bravo! More videos please! Topics to be explored might include "S" turning your board on a broad reach, establishing sight lines on marks on the course, sailing a slalom board with non-cambered surf style sails, harness hook position or harness style for different conditions. I am thinking out loud... More videos please!

That's an interesting technique! I find my freestyle wave boards behave similarly and I suspect it is to do with getting load into the fin and keep rocker out of the water. I imagine it gives you a fast, stable platform to drive off :D

right on. I was sailing today in very fluky, gusty and bouncy conditions. putting my back foot in first let me give the board "the spur" putting the drive of the fin and sail in unison and off I went! (^_^) yah!

That’s how I love to jibe too! Great video very well made, filmed and described! 👏👌👍

Well done. Gotta love those special effects

Pretty good, but forgot step one: look to make sure area you're going to turn into is clear

The best tutorial I v ever seen! Thank you !!!!

wooooow what a tutorial! thanks

Surprising they don't talk about what they are doing with the sail which is VERY important. A lot of jibe technique depends on wind speed. On big boards with medium to bigger sails you'll actually be sailing faster than the wind speed, so in the middle of the jibe the wind is coming directly at you. That is why you see these guys over sheet and lay the sail down downwind to decrease drag from the sail. During the sail flip you're actually taking the mast from leaning downwind to leaning upwind on the new course. You accomplish that by pushing the mast to windward past your face as you're grabbing the boom on the other side. Then as soon as you have the sail flipped, start pumping the sail to build up board speed and increase apparent wind to get planning again on the new course.

And to add they do not say that first foot change near to mast, and then release the sail, as releasing stops the mast pressure and board starts to get jumpy, IF the the foor is not already forward keeping board down. So first feet then sail.

Thank you

Great vid

great vid thanks

Great!

Great video tuition , where was it filmed ?

nice video

All these slalom TWS videos are awesome. Whats the song in the beginning of the video? It makes me go faster. ;-p

Awesome Thks

Being curious - so on a slalom kit during foot change you don't go heel to toe - placing the foot from the straps IN FRONT of the foot on the rail like on a small kit?

아주 잘타네요

perfect video .thanks....

Very solid! Also good to practice the whole thing without switching the feet and sailing out on a plane switch stance and switching them when fully powered up. More of a wave board smaller sail thing though...

Intro song plz

I walked up that mountain

well doesn't that look so easy

Most of those were laydown gybes - much more advanced. Why show those when you give the impression you're demonstrating a normal carve gybe?
