I am 52 , windsurfed in the 80's and 90's, did catamaran sailing until 3 years ago. Skipped kiting completely. This is great to re-enter. Specially after this guy is telling you that its for everyone. I believe him, I feel it ....

Well done, I couldn't agree more. Foiling is one of the easiest transitions for windsurfing if you follow a few of the precautions which you mentioned. I think anybody who can shortboard, can foil during their first lesson. Initially I was more concerned about multiple adjustments you would have to make. Definitely not so, I think the industry has made it appear way too complicated which it is not. I recommend just doing it, it's easier than most people think and definitely the "next level", pardon the pun! Thanks Balz

Hello Blaz, I windfoiled a couple of hours getting up for 20 mt or so and tacking which I found easy on the foil. I am curious about the fact that you use quite a narrow board, and I was experiencing quite a lot of torque generated by foil mast as it was a big 70 cm formula fin, and my ankles had a tough time to keep the board flat. I immagine you go downwind before the board get out of the water to reduce this torque, then once out the torque is less since less of the mast is in the water...can you give me an insight on this? thank you, you are a fantastic athlete..everything seems so easy looking at you ...but is not!

Recently foils started to appear with the front wing much more forward (longer front part of the mast) - so that has the same effect as moving the mastfoot back with a normal foil.

If you are waterstarting with a short mast, you can use the foil as a step for the second foot to come up out of the water.

So it's the opposite of wind surf boards. You pump with the rear foot in the strap and you take it out when you fly to compensate the backwards mast foot and balance the foil. Looks all easy with Balz,

Thanks Balz! Super useful You recommend not bailing out, that it’s dangerous. I did that a few times and it’s definitely scary to see the blades coming out of the water as you are falling behind your gear. What do you recommend when you are out of control and want to bail? Just sheeting out and staying with your rig even if that means getting thrown forward?

Great video! I am currently in my "first flights phase". Three proper sessions in and learning more and more each time. Question: what can you say about harness lines? Is it better to have them shorter for foiling compared to e.g. regular flat water blasting? Thanks! Nash

I leave them as is, then drop out when foiling. I don't feel the pull of the sail when I'm up on the foil.

Are you sure that measuring from the fin box is correct with all foil? Front wing placement is surely important.

@christinemurray1444

I think you'd need a bigger board to foil comfortably. If you can't uphaul you're drastically cutting the range of your foiling, as you'll be overpowered on the foil if you can waterstart comfortably, definitely on the non-racing foils. Typically you need a smaller sail, and enough volume to uphaul (110+ for you maybe?).

Many useful tips.However, Balz, your sequence of instruction was missing something. You went from first plane right to the gybe and you provided no tips for how to sail along once that first plane has been achieved. No cruising tips. Apart from saying it's wobbly! If you were to add a cruising module the presentation would be perfect!
