    Really enjoyed this. As an experienced kiter/foiler, I only wish I got tips like this when I first started.
    As a video enthusiast, I enjoy your footage, editing, narrative and quality of production, (especially the drone shots). Continued success to you both. Hope to join you on one of your getaways. True Aloha Spirit!

    On the Solent there is theory that a seat harness really helps you learn to toeside a foil due to the lower balance point helping you lean against the pull of the kite as you come round the turn. Has this idea made it to Antigua?

      Never used one at a cable park but imagine its a great place to learn. Same as behind a boat or ski, can be easier not having to deal with the kite.

    • @VillePetter
      @VillePetter 5 років тому +1

      Yep, it is great place to learn. Especially 2.0 wake cable because if you fall you don't need to swim back to starting point.

    Do you think it´s better to start to learn foiling strapless or with staps?

    • @JakeKelsick
      @JakeKelsick  4 роки тому +4

      I'd say it's for sure easier with straps. Only downside with straps is you can get stuck in them and wipe out harder at times vs being able to jump off and away from the foil. But in general having straps helps a lot.

    I hoped to get more tips regarding the footwork when transitioning. What sequence do the feet change and where to pressure the foil in order to not upset the balance. I can rip a turn, sail switch, but feet transitioning is not consistent...

    • @JakeKelsick
      @JakeKelsick  5 років тому +1

      Yeah dude I always seem to miss something with these videos. Would have been good to dive deeper into that. But the biggest tip is to learn how to do it on the water and not foiling. Gives you a lot more room for error and once you get the on the water switches dialed, doing it while foiling become a lot easier. You are basically are going from a heel side wakeboard stance to a ski stance for a second and then around to a toe side wakeboard stance, keeping pressure flat and down on the board the whole time. If you can get a video of yourself trying it I'd love to walk you through what's going wrong over on Patreon - www.patreon.com/JakeKelsick

    Do not agree..... If you can ride a surfboard and turn then no problem turning while up on a foil... why would you come down to do a turn.. Never needed to do it from dot... silly idea

      Each to their own. It is pedantic to wear a helmet in those conditions (no waves on flat water) though an impact vest would make the wip outs less painful.
