How to get planning for the first time is almost exactly the same as getting back on the power and exiting you gybes with speed and power!
DROP & PUSH are the key points to do both!
Drop= OUT, BACK & DOWN (which for those following the same idea as how we "channel the power; sheeting the sail IN, BACK & DOWN!")
What do you think of the behind the back camera? Filmed on Sail Video Systems harness mount and an Insta360 One R.
Sound is dubbed over with the InstaMic, mounted in a home made anti-pop neck mount- I think it sounds great- but I'm a windsurfer not a sound tech so feel free to offer advice!
Thanks for watching, make sure you check out the rest of the channel, subscribe and comment- and let me know if there is anything specific you want filming let me know....
or if you can come and join me for a clinic out in Vassiliki this summer 2021 at the Cosmos hotel!

Great video. Even as an experienced windsurfer, revisiting techniques is really useful. Your teaching style is clear and uncomplicated, with great quality video.
😜
I know right!
@@Cookiesports Yep great video, very clear explanation, nice work! Is there a vid on the backwind tack you mention or is that in the works?
In the works! 😜
@@Cookiesports Awesome!
The format of these videos "ride along" is amazing. It's so clear and precise, and it's nice to see the move over and over from beginning to end. The angle is perfect. Tips are top notch, helping us get to that ever elusive planing gybe exit!
Go get it!
Thank you!
You speak very energetic. Thanks for all useful explanations about all.
🤩🤩🤩
This is so perfectly simple! No more complicated than necessary. Thank for the excellent instruction this really helped me !
Thanks! Loads more like it on the channel!
Yo Cookie thanks a bunch m8 your videos taught me how to windsurf...goodluck.
Great to hear, thanks!
Man, you're the god of teaching windsurfing! No bullshit, no calculus, pure practice to go and do your work on the water. I made so many things work with your instructions.
Great to hear! Thanks!
I've never windsurfed, have no idea about what you're talking about really, but I'm completely loving watching and listening to you! :D
Hahah! Thanks!
You should try windsurfing, great fun and super addictive!
The best windsurfing video i have seen for a while. Thank you. I will not forget drop and push.
👍👍👍
Excellent tutoring and video.. Thank you Cookie !
Thanks!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are the king 🤴 👑
You're welcome! 👑
Very nice Settings, switching camera, proposons the best angle and sound is top
Thanks for watching! 🙌🙌
Just discovered your videos and they're great and I'm going to start again, I haven't planed like this since 1988!!!
Thanks! Glad you’re back on the water!
What helped me was being in Maui. In Greece the wind was never as consistent as in Maui...in Maui I surprised myself by powering through my jibes consistently...and of course applying the same technique in both places.
Hope the tips in here helped too! 😜
@@Cookiesports definitely though i kite now. i sold all my windsurf gear about a decade ago. still, you never forget your first love and that was/is windsurfing. it changed my life. chucked in my job and went around the world windsurfing. so always will watch windsurfing videos to remind myself of the learning curve...thank you! and to improve ... i love windsurfing so much, i once in a squal in Benoni, Gauteng, South Africa, in a park, with a small lake, dropped trou and borrowed a rig, and sailed in my underpants...lol.
Hi just want to say this is by far the best tutorial video on planing and gybing I have ever seen - Really easy to follow your instruction especially with the camera angle - If only I can put this into practise I would be super happy - Its been a while since I windsurfed - Actually learned down in Jeddah Saudi Arabia, with some xpats but not managed to get back out since returning home - Seriously miss this and this video just put me right back in the mood - Thinking of getting myself a similar size of board and get back in the water - Thanks mate!
Thank you! 🙌🙌🙌
Look into the Carve or the Go… both great boards
I have been windsurfing since 1986, and I find this video GREAT for intermediates!
Thank you!
I always have my hand to much forward! Thats my problem haha thnx again
👍👍👍👍
Nice speed dude!!! That unique feeling of free planning...
Agreed! 😁
Great video, good explanation. Thank you so much 🤙
Thank you!
Great video and this is exactly what I needed. I’ve been struggling to find the “key” to actually planing, and you have gave me a clue to it! Your other videos are also been my text book where I still regularly come back. Thanks and look forward for more to come😊👍
Thanks for watching! Really happy to help!
Another video with great clarity of your explanations and views! thank you very much!!
Thank you!
Thanks for all of your videos. They are spot on and the editing and camera angles are perfect to understand.
Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. I'll probably go to Greece next summer. Hopefully I can get a clinic with you. 🙏
That sounds great. I’m based at the Cosmos hotel, drop us an email for a room, rentals and lessons!
Hope to see you there!
Love this! Great way for intermediates such as yours truly to learn how to work with both footstraps.
Great stuff!
i want to thank you cookie great video great man you teached a lot of clues thank you again
Thank you! 🙌
This might be the best video I ve seen explaining the drop & push. Great camera setup and instructions. Can’t wait to try it. 🤙
Thanks! Let me know if it works!
Omg thank you for this video, Cook!! 🙏🏼 Front hand too far forward is me to a T! No wonder my hanging back and down is not working. Cannot wait to get out and try this simplified method 🤙🏽
Let me know how you get on! 🤙🤙
Looks very easy you did!
Finally I could understand one of the episode, I am so new. Good one, I am kind of at this feeling, awaiting for planing soon. Thanks, Cookies.
Go get it! 🤙🤙🤙
Amazingly simple! Thanks for a very helpful and informative video! 💪💪
👍👍👍
Great video. clear and simple
Thank you!
Great stuff
Thanks!
Love it… gotta get one of these insta360’s, the footage is awesome!
🤙🤙🤙
Now you nailed it!!! The sound is great and the video is perfect. Now you just need to redo all your videos with the new microphone. 😁
Hahah! Not sure I’ll have time for them all- but I’ll keep filming as much as I can!
Another great clip Cookie! Thank you!
Thank you too!
Perfect timing! I just arrived in Outer Banks, North Carolina and will work on planing out of jibes this week! Thanks so much!!!
Great- hope this works for you! 👍👍
Missed your videos over the winter! Thanks for doing them, i alway seem to get some useful information out of them that immediately improves my wind surfing
Great to hear, thank you!
I think he enjoys making them
Wow, what a great way to give instructions. It looks amazing! I am always losing speed in the turn so can't wait to practice this next session.
Let me know how it works!
Great video for reminding you and reinforcing things
👍👍👍👍
I love your videos! You always hit the key points to bring my windsurfing to higher levels. And by the way: nice style on the water (cap and sunglasses)! Greetings from Germany :-)
Thanks! Glad you like the vids!
You are the best!!! Thanks for the tips
Thanks!
Aahhh!! Super! We’ve been talking about that ‘drop’ part before. It’s working great!! Thanks!! See you in august. We’ll be in Vassiliki. Keep it up mate!.
🙌🙌🙌🙌
See you here soon!
Priceless!
Hope you liked it!
I'll try to keep it short this time!! The Severne NCX is a great sail!! What I like about this video, its how simple you made it. You could have gone into detail on what exactly is going on, but you don't need to with the great camera views. Keeping it on point and just the key elements makes it great.
I am now exiting some of my Gybes planing and the drop and push through the front foot is so key to it!!
Great video, I am going to watch it again of course!!
Thanks Kev!
Good content Cookie. I'm also a big fan of the backwinded tack, especially when it's cranking. Love to carve tack hard and jump over backwinded, much higher success rate in gnarly conditions.
Back-winded is there at forward- so many people are missing this!
Nice video!...thanks for sharing!
👍👍👍
Video is great- sounds and vison. Nice and clear..
Thanks!
Great stuff. Looks effortless.
It should be effortless when you do it right!
best vid on the topic
Thanks!
Very helpful! Now I know that I wasn't dropping low enough. Great stuff 🤙
Thanks! Hope it improves things!
Great explanation... I also use a variation of drop and push in a lull or light wind - with the mast upright just hanging off the boom.
Just to re-emphasise- the importance (in higher winds and gybe planing exits)- to grab the boom far back with the front hand with the Drop and Push as this helps with handling the burst of power.
Thanks! Far back down the boom with the front hand is a key point! ✅
Muy buen video. Las mejores clases !!
🤩🤩🤩
Another great vid Master Teacher.
Cheers from Chile 🇨🇱
Thanks! 👍👍👍
Awesome instructions, great video angles. Actually today I had my boom a little higher than usual and the drop and push was so much easier and I wasn’t fighting the sail as much. Love to see some tacks with the new camera setup.
Great to hear!!
Drop and push and masthand close to harness line...I ll remember that one ...thx cookie
🤩🤩🤩
Great suggestion!
Thanks
The audio now is amazing, congratulation!
Thanks! I knew I had a great mic- just me not using it correctly!
Drop & push… and may be pump? Could you please make a video on pumping?
Pumping video is on the list to film.
Only pumping used in the video was the push/drive/kick off the front foot! If you have wind/power there’s no need to!
Re pumping I bounce the board to get on the plane . I don't know if it's as effective as pumping but I can do it still hooked in and when I'm on a big board for my size it's less physical.I'd be interested to know more about bouncing versus pumping.
Amazing video!!! Please go on like this!!! 🤙🔝
Thanks! New video every week!
Great tips for me as I am using now not so old equipment. Had a Bic vivace, now I have a drops kranz
👍👍👍
Great video! and also think you have really optimized the angles with your new camera. Find them much better than on the previous three.
Could you do a video on efficient uphauling technique when on a smaller smaller board please? - any differences compared to a large one aside from obvious balance issues?
Good idea, I’ll add to the list!
👍👍👍
Another full useful video !! 👍🏼
Thanks!
Great video as always, I'll have to pay attention to where I keep that front hand next time I'm out! I might be guilty of keeping it forward a bit, that's why I get much better power when I put all my weight on the harness? You mentioned a video on duck gybes, I can't wait to see how to duck the sail without the wind ripping it out of your hands when it crosses the clew...
Coming very soon! Thanks
great tips, energy and excitement! love it
Could you make a video with tips on how to carve when you are coming full power or overpowered? Meaning mostly the entry. Thanks Cookie
Good idea, I’ll add to the list!
Great video! Would love to see one on backwind tacks!!!
Coming soon!
Great camera angles & mic quality! I'm definitely up for a clinic on heli tacks! Been practicing them a lot recently but it's still a 50/50 outcome for me somehow.
I’ll get filming that one soon!
Super!!! Thanks Man!!!
Thanks!
Nice stuff
Thanks for watching!
Great video!
Excellent wind conditions, audio and cameras views, and of coarse, great “Cooking” demonstrations and simple very important hints. 10/10.
I have Carve131, what did you use in this video ?
Thank you!
Good one cookie
Thanks!
Very nice videos in you channel , kudos Cookie. If possible it would be interesting another one for pumping technique to start planing in marginal conditions .
Pumping video is on the list to be filmed!
i was planning vass vacation (i am greek) and was definitely going to catch you there for some lessons... unfortunately not gonna happen. Maybe next year back in Greece :). Great content!
I’ll be back next summer- hope to see you then!
Great video. Do you happen to have a video on harness line placement and front hand location? The front hand placement forward always kills power and is my biggest offender when sailing. Love the video clarity and your smooth sailing and delivery.
Hi!
Thanks for watching, sorry it took so long to message back, slipped through some how!
Try this videos about harness lines…ua-cam.com/video/lgtRtOAW0qc/v-deo.html
Make sure you read the descriptions for elaborations on each skill when you watch them- 60seconds is short- Chances are the words that go with it will answer some questions you’ll have.
Can I say that I've been windsurfing for 3 years, and trying to get in the straps at least 2 years now. It really felt impossible. No matter what videos I was watching or advice I was getting from friends. I finally managed to do it this summer consistently mainly because of your videos! Imagine if I managed to get a clinic in vasiliki!!! :D
Hope to see you next year! 👍👍👍
@@Cookiesports Hopefully yes!!
🤟🤟
Thanks a lot for really helpful tutorials. Have the same board myself as you’re using in this video. So thanks for showing the potential. Looking forward to tutorial on those back winded tacks as well. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
Thanks! I really like this carve 133, stable and fast!
Excellent 👌😊👌
Thank you!
Great
Thanks
Great that you have started new season of excellent videos 😀.... I was wondering if you could consider a video on the helitack & upwind 360?.. I can helitack on a big board in light winds, but struggle with timing and balance in stronger winds on a smaller (111 litre) board... Thank you...
I’ve got HT’s on the “to film list!”
Thanks for the comment by the way!
for me the only thing that worked and I just managed to really exit a few gybes with solid speed was to lean the hips inside when carving and flipping the rig on the spot. whenever I do the round movement with the mast that you do when flipping I flipping stop. I'm usually on 116L and 6.2 freeride
Usual, but as long as it works for you! ✅
The Insta360 shots are great! Also, I just have to say how helpful it's been recently to focus on "vision," both while teaching and working on my own skills. I've found that beginners are able to sail upwind more quickly, and I've been able to exit more of my carve jibes dry (although not planing, which I'll need to work on now).
I don't know if it fits the style of your videos, but can you discuss how you help students choose equipment when you're teaching? How do you help them move from sails they can comfortably uphaul, to something that's larger and more difficult to handle but large enough to get them planing?
Interesting you ask about that subject… stay tuned for the next video! 😜
Great videos! How do you record audio? It's amazingly clear given the fact you're actually on the water in heavy wind:)
Good huh! 😜
I’ve promised to do a full intro to my sound and audio set up’s if/when I hit 10,000 subs. Share the channel and help me get there! 👍
Super good videos you coming out with keep up 🤙🏻
One question, planing jibe 😅
Should I keep my sail sheeted in and straight front arm, passing 90deg in the turn and right after start to open up for the flip?
/best regards
-H’s on the entrance
- open early with extended front arm,
- steer with rig movement (to the outside)
-disco rig flip
-D&P on the boom exit
Hello! I do love your videos!! They are so easy to understand! I see you are going with the front leg straight and the back leg bended… some times to be confortable i only can do this going downwind… to go upwind or “straight” most of the time I have the two legs stretched to be confortable. What is your advise? Thanks!
Really depends- front leg doesn’t stay straight the whole time, there are lots of adjustments and changes happening.
Thanks for watching by the way! 👍👍👍
Enjoy the video and the talk whilst sailing, very informative. Learnt something today, thanks! What size Carve is that? Used to have a 122 and regret selling it! Could be useful if you put what equipment sizes in the comments, and wind strength? Typical windsurfer, asking what size sail? 😀
It’s a 6.5 NCX sail and a 133 carve, 2020 edition. I thought I’d said that in the video but maybe I didn’t!
You always do, but this time you forgot 😉
Thank you very much Cookie for the great video’s, hope to come over to Greece (next year?) to get some coaching from you!!
@@Cookiesports Actually you’re right mate! (sorry about earlier comment)… at about 5:45 you do mention the sail and board sizes! Punctual as ever 😅
Thanks for the tips and the enthusiasm, great job Cookie!
One question. When going upwind I have hard time entering my feet in the streps and putting my hands back on the boom. When I do, I instantly go too much into the wind and loose speed. No way to get into planing. From your tips I believe it could be: i) not enough wind to do it; ii) bad trim, that is I am pushing too hard on the heels (of the back foot in particular); iii) not driving through the front foot and not having a stiletto position on the back foot. What do you think?
Sounds right… drive hard off the front foot to turn the board away from the wind and keep it flat. 👍
Thanks for sharing these great video’s. Learning soo much !! My old habit is still playing up and that is pulling the mast towards me with my front hand and leaning back . I guess that is still to prevent a catapult but it is stopping me progressing. Any tips or tricks to change this habit would be great. Thanks !
Leaning back in great- but pulling the front hand opens the sail up- de-powering it and stopping you speeding up!
@@Cookiesports Ah!!!! no wonder I have been pulling the front hand with all my strength.
@@gyzfr6 stop pulling the front arm and the sail will power up!
@@Cookiesports IT WORKS !!!!!!!! wohooooo
@@gyzfr6 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Hey Cookie. Your videos are very helpful. Do you ever do clinics in New Jersey or Miami? I would love to attend if you do. Thanks
Thanks! No plans currently heading that way I'm afraid, maybe you can make it to Greece in summer 2022? I'll be doing clinics there all of next summer! 🤙
Great video. You emphasize pushing forward with the front foot to optimize planing. What about the back foot? I push across the board/fin with my back foot, to help generate lift. Is this correct? Is it less important than force on the front foot?
I can work with some side back foot pressure- but problem is it could (when done wrong) spin you into wind quickly, or cause spin out.
Thank you. It may be very diffucult when you talking and plaining. 😯👊
Take some practice! 👍👍
Thanks for a great video.Great camera angels and good sound. Is it always windy in Vasiliki? Looks like a perfect windsurfing spot? 👍🌞🇬🇷
It’s a great spot for sure!
@@Cookiesports and most of the time windy?
So so…. It afternoon/late wind, and very tricky forecast to read and predict!
It’s famous for windsurfing though- when it blows it really blows!
Planning is all I have been wanting to do. Moving my hands back!! i never thought of it. after hours and hoirs of trying.
By the way 6.5 NCX, I wonder if i can eved handle a 6.0+ since I am 165lbs
Definitely you can handle a 6.5m… I’m less than 80kg too!
Hands back will power the sail up nicely for you! 👍👍👍
Really nice coaching! So appreciative of these. This technique works like magic but question: How to adapt this technique for when we’re hooked into the harness? I find that I can’t keep the rig as upright when dropping out, back and down when hooked in (compared to out of the harness)even if I push the boom with the front hand. The whole motion while hooked in makes the sail lean comparatively more windward and back, and so reduces the effect.
De-power, so you can then power up... pull the front arm IN so you can drop out and back...then push the front arm to re-power up.
@@Cookiesports Oh.. What a huge lightbulb moment. Thank you!
Boss!
🤩🤩
Thanks a lot for videos Cookie, they're great! Question: in those videos it seems that I often see you in the straps (or at least the front one), not planning, and you look pretty comfortable. Now every time I try to get in the straps while not planing (with my old, heavy 160l freeride board from the early 2000s, 7.1m sail, usually marginal conditions) the board wants to go upwind really bad, even if I'm only in the front strap, and it takes a lot of effort to keep it form doing so and I feel like I'm going to fall backwards on my butt. I can do it but it's a struggle (it's very demanding on my core). Any advice that would help? Is it bad technique (I would guess) or can I just not do that in too marginal conditions (i.e. enough power to counterbalance my weight being on the tail)? Once a gust comes and I start planing the problem disappears.
Hi! I only get in the front strap when I’m a) planning or b) about to get planning. We shouldn’t aim to be hanging about in he strap waiting- it’ll just drift you downwind.
Can i go in may to this spot? Looks awesome!
Yes yes yes! We open our school on May 8th! 👍👍👍
Where I am sailing, 6.5 is a small size! 🤣
Hahah! It’s all subjective I guess- it’s my largest sail!
@@Cookiesports It really is - it is a rare day for me to be on a 6.5. Normally 8.5 and 188L. I like your videos. I notice you keep your hands close to the harness lines, which are also very close together. When I watch slalom race videos, those guys have quite a spread on their grip. When is it "proper" to use a wider spread?
Thanks for these fantastic videos, I wanted to ask you for some advice for me, unfortunately I can not progress in the technique in general, in my area when there is wind the sea is very rough and I can not get out, otherwise there is always little wind , do you have any advice on how to face the very rough sea?
Thanks for watching. Maybe try watching this video, I think it'll help you out... ua-cam.com/video/5Rb2ZWxW9RA/v-deo.html
Hi Mr C . Excellent lesson yet again . I'm at the stage where planning is happening ONLY in bigger wind 20 +. Most of my gang are 70 KGs , where yours truly is coming in at 100 kgs so going out on an 8.2 to get the power that they are getting on 5.5 -6 M sails . Does that sound right or am I simply in need of more time on the water.....??
A large car needs a larger engine- yes for sure you’ll need a bigger sail! 😜
Technical will help you to be more efficient of course too, and will allow you to take smaller sails
@@Cookiesports Thank you. That makes total sense . All my mates are lighter by a long way lol .
Still not seen any tuition to replicate the carve splash maneuver I'm famous for. Been doing it for 20 years, why hasn't it caught on?
🤣🤣🤣
The water looks beautiful.
What gear are you on?
Thanks for watching!
Most of this Bosnian a Starboard Carve 133, and a 6.5m Severne NCX.
It’s filmed in Vassiliki, Greece, where I’ll be running clinics all summer. Maybe you’ll can make it out to join?
👍
🤩🤩
Great video! I hang from the boom after a gybe in the flat but don't in the chop. I also don't push on my front foot to get going so I'll be trying it next sail. I love the idea of being in the straps first. I don't know if it will work in our gusty choppy winter conditions but if I can get it to work I will be in a much safer spot when the gusts hit.
Give it a go and let me know how it works!!
@@CookiesportsI gave it a go. I realised I already hang low hooked in with my front foot in the strap and do a version of what you say to get going. I stayed hooked in and in the strap/s but moved my arms back and pulled on with the back one and pushed with my front foot like you said . it was great! Great fun. thanks.
