I would go more down wind directly before your jibe. It keeps the radius smaller and you can carry more speed. however your jibes look really good

Harness lines should be around 30 to be efficient. It looks like you have to work hard to transform power from the sail to speed, this makes it also harder to concentrate in technique. Maybe you've put the boom too high to compensate for too long harness lines. It looks like gusty and very powered for 8.4 sail, the board is doing fine, maybe put the mastbase 5mm to the front. Before the jibe make sure you go at least 10 seconds downwind first for more speed and in the jibe you can push a bit on the boom to keep planing better when you loose speed in the jibe. Next time jibe around a bouy😊 Overall not bad at all but some fine tuning is possible I think. Best regards, Marco

Could you kindly spare some words/comments on Avanti Sails. I have had the opportunity to ride sails from various brands, but unfortunately, not the Avanti. Therefore, I am curious about how it feels and performs in contrast to other more conventionally constructed sails. Thank you.

I have been on Avanti since 2018. I really like the construction with the membrane as the center of effort is very stabile even in the wave sails. And the sails still feel soft in a good way. I some times use my mates duotone warp, I don’t like the feeling but speeds are more or less the same. Avanti sails are pretty difficult to get a hold on these days, so if you don’t like to wait don’t go with Avanti

Hi Kasper, what are your thoughts about the sail touching the boom? Some say this would stabilize the sail a bit. Also +1 for increasing the entry speed on the gybes. You are so fast on the straight lines, you should be coming flying out of the gybes. Keep up the amazing work! Cheers

I have found that my sails are faster and lighter in the hands with some positive outhaul. So I avoid the sails touching the boom. In the light winds I aim for it almost touching. Try to see my video about booms, there is a sectioin about the following the board width

The carve gybes look great and it looks a lovely spot. I think I sail with 24 inch harness lines on flat water (or at least as short as I can make them) but I still use a seat harness. I have tried making them longer as adjustable, but I think my arms are too short as it doesn't suit my sailing style at the moment. A few say longer is better, I think I need to practice.

My humble opinion. I really think the lines are to long for this type of sailsize making you correct constantly and looking a bit unstable. You keep closing te sail and the gap to the board. I think this is causing you to lose speed. Gibes are good, maybe the official way to do it is different but you're planing out of the gibe and that's what counts to me.

I see. But the long lines should give you more control. I still think they are to long causing you to not being able to put your weight (bud) into your sail. The long lines might work on a foil?

All pretty good, maybe just a bit too much hanging back on a crucial part of the jibe and thus killing the speed. The last two jibes in this video are already better. Always nice to see (and feel) the big board flying.

Agree. Moreover, before jibing, try to move the backhand grip as far back as you can, pull hard while extending the front hand as much as possible to the outside of the corner. Then, after the jibe, grab the boom from below on the new tack, so you waste less time adjusting for the new course.

To all the people mentioning the lines are too long. Kasper uses the Liberty harness, I need about 4 inches more length compared to a waist harness with that harness. On my big slalom board I tend to use my waist harness again as my 34 inch harness lines are too short for me on the Drake/Liberty, especially going downwind. It feels like I'm standing upright. I think Kasper and I are both pretty tall as well (190+?) so the boom at chin level is obviously pretty high. I have no clue how I used 22-24 inch lines just a few years ago...
