Watched this twice, went out, busted out 2 duck gybes in a row. Your tip about initiating early was my “missing link”. Excellent instructional video!! Thanks!! 🤙
Glad I could help! For many people that is the only mistake and yet it takes so long to figure out... probably because we are so used to the normal gybe! Have fun perfecting it :D
Hey man! Good to hear from you! I did want to add more water action but I accidentally deleted all my duck jibe content so this is what we are left with! The clip in the end is a POV of a duck gybe and the last clip a mast mount so you can see different aspects there. The duck gybe is not really trainable properly when not planing so I dont have any of that footage for that reason! I am sure you can find some duck gybes on my instagram :D Next time I will put more water action :)
Thank you Rob!Ii am glad you like them! The duck gybe as I am doing it here is a planing move simply because for the rotation of the sail to feel smooth you need to be moving at a certain speed around the corner. If you do want to try them non-planing then I would recommend going slightly downwind and rotating the sail first and then going into a normal non-planing gybe. So its more like a sail 180 into a gybe, so to speak! :)
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any help you can offer me!
Καλησπέρα φίλε Κυριάκο συγχαρητήρια για τα βίντεο. Ελα μπορείς και τα βίντεο ν ατα βγάζεις και στα ελληνικά. Για μας που δεν ξέρουμε πολλη καλά Αγγλικά. Ευχαριστώ
@@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind only tried one on my weak side (port) but I transitioned the sail very early and it was smooth. Nice tips. I’ll practice more next spring. It is getting too cold to fool around ☃️☃️
@@baikelai Sounds good! Great job... keep pushing! Not a big fan of the cold myself! Water is actually pretty nice here we are just missing the wind! :) Good luck and keep riding!
@@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind έλα βρε φίλε... Ήμουν σίγουρος ότι ήσουν κάπου σε εξωτικά μέρη....βλέποντας τους φοίνικες!!! Θα ερχομασταν φέτος για διακοπές στην Ρόδο αλλά μας τα χάλασε ο ιος Να είσαι καλά... Πολύ ωραία βιντεακια!!!
Thank you! :) This is definitely the best boom I have ever used. Stiffness is out of this world. Name is Cafros Booms its probably easiest to find on Instagram :)
No of course you can do it on big sails also. You just have to be careful the sail doesnt get low enough to catch the water. I have done Duck Gybes on a 8.0 sail

Hey boss. I actually expected you to show us this move in the water😌
He does right at the end. It’s a mast cam but still.

Glad you like it! Hope to see you getting some duck gybes out soon! :)
Once again, a clear explanation! Keep them coming more often please 🙏🏻. Would this gybe also work non-planing? Cheers, Rob

Thanksssss
My pleasure! Glad you liked it :)
Nice video, are you willing to share the company of that boom, are you happy with it :)
Thank you! :)
This is definitely the best boom I have ever used. Stiffness is out of this world. Name is Cafros Booms its probably easiest to find on Instagram
:)
Good news, thanks a lot.
that give is for small sails only ?
No of course you can do it on big sails also. You just have to be careful the sail doesnt get low enough to catch the water.
I have done Duck Gybes on a 8.0 sail
Windsurfing is a lot like watching how magic tricks are done........
Hah! That is an interesting way of putting it :D
It's very hard and stressing to understand due to the noise in the background! Kalinichta, B*
