Congratulations! You have proved incontrovertibly that you can flatstart gear just like mine: a Hipe Cruzader with a Sirus foil and a cheap paddle. I have no more excuses 😂. I am still further back in the learning journey, at around 30 seconds pumping dock starting my Sirus XXL. Hope I can slowly progress to a steady 1 minute pumping, then I can consider seriously trying the flat water start. Keep up the good work content wise, look forward to part 2!
Congratulations, u pump like a beast! i like ur test and just want to say, not compliaining just say, ur wheight is not the same as 10kg more! Ur pumping technic is on point that's it. others can pump 1800m3 in to air without a paddle... i'm sure u could do so, maybe not with the hipeCruz but a hard board. i try so many times Hipecruz 7'6 and sirus xl but got it just after 10sessions! could use a hard board and i was everytime up... im 75kg and ok fit, did alot of SUP earlyer... it's more the pumping technic... not complaning just saying...
@@janschenk85 Thank you and thanks for sharing!! If I understand you well, you have a lot of experience and you are saying that the rider weight is not that important but the pumping technique is? If so this is good news for everybody because losing 10-20kg is often not possible, training is ☺️ And yes, I have to work on my technique, I’m still a beginner, did just 4 sessions so far sup foiling, little experience in sup. I will keep training with my inflatable see if I can take off without paddling, tried once did not work 😜
Salut, j’ai posé une question un peu identique sous une autre de tes videos mais je vois que tu utilises un stab sirus 50 ou veloce 47 en fonction des ailes avant. Comment tu choisis quel stab avec quelle justifications derrière ? Et pourquoi tu prends pas plus petits en stab ? Je commence le pumping et j’essais de comprendre les mécanismes :) Merci a toi 🤙🏻
@@melvannjoud4528 Salut ! Merci pour tes messages ! 👍 moi aussi je me posais beaucoup de questions sur les stabs au début ;) Je vais essayer de résumer… Le stab est important mais pas autant que la front wing, c’est elle qui détermine le programme ! Le stab va te donner des sensations différentes sur l’eau, en t’apportant de la portance, du pop, de la vitesse… Il y a le facteur habitude qui joue beaucoup aussi. Par exemple j’aime beaucoup en pumping longue distance le stab Veloce 47H avec la FW Sirus XL. J’y suis habitué, j’ai de très bonnes sensations avec. Beaucoup choisiront des stabs plus petits, qui fonctionnent aussi très bien. J’ai essayé le Veloce H 44, le Veloce H 36, le Sirus 40 qui sont super aussi. Le Freestyle xxs 35 est super aussi ! Mais pour les longues distances pour le moment j’ai privilégié le Veloce H 47. En Supfoil pour décoller plus facilement et avoir plus de portance j’ai beaucoup aimé le Stab Sirus xl 50. J’ai essayé le Veloce H 47 qui fonctionne très bien aussi. Pour commencer je conseillerais d’en prendre un d’une taille intermédiaire. Tu as quoi comme matériel pour le moment ?
Thank you for posting this great video. Amazing to see the rapid progress! Did you locate the mast on your board, as far forward as possible? Or did you slightly change the mast placement with every new foil setup?
@@kaikaiser1497 Thanks! I put the mast almost in the middle position, a bit more forward. That was the best feeling I had with my beginner skills. Too much forward it is easier to take off but the speed was too low to keep flying. I used the same position for all the different Frontwings.
@@waynegaotmu5367 Thanks! Honestly I haven’t tried a rigid board for this yet. But a rigid board is… well more rigid 😅 stiff and the friction with the water is less. So I imagine it a lot easier. But with an inflatable it is working fine as well. If you prefer an inflatable (cheaper, easier to transport, less fragile…) go for a long enough one to make it easier. The longer the easier to take off.
Nice work! I'm 93kg, have the 3xl sirus (and 6xl curve-h) the 7'11" hipe cruzader and also a cheap plastic paddle. I've been slowly trying to paddle up but I feel like I'm going to break the paddle... I'm also wondering if I should be trying the 6xl curve H or the 3xl sirus. I can dock start and pump either to 60s but I can get further on the "faster" sirus. I think the curve has a lower stall speed though so probably easier to get up onto foil?
@@benjaminbjacobsen Thanks! I never used the curve 6xl but I think it might be easier than the Sirus 3xl. The size of your Cruzader is the right one to get started 👍 Regarding the paddle, I think a carbon stiff one makes the learning process easier. You will not have the feeling of breaking it. With a plastic one it should work though. You have to learn how to use your legs to get started. Jumping correctly on the board makes it move forward without using the paddle. The legs are more important than the paddle. I am making another video to explain it. I will release it next Monday 👍
Bravo ! Tas lair super a laise sur la board . Tu pèse combien pour référence. Jai envie de me mettre au DW aussi mais un peu intimidé par la galère à prévoir
@@MATLEG40 merci! Je fais 62kg. Faut se lancer ! Je ne savais pas à quoi m’attendre quand j’ai commencé pour la première fois la semaine dernière, je ne regrette pas. Pour limiter galéré, avoir le bon matos ça aide: longue DW board, pagaie carbone, grosse FW
@@Ludo_freefoileryes ! Je fais 66-68kg, j'ai réussi à trouver une 8' Kalama Barracuda. Il me manque une grosse Fw je vais commencer avec mon sk8 1050 juste pour m'entraîner sans espoir de monter dessus le temps d'acheter plus gros (1500 Seven seas je pense).
@@olivierdecroly661 Sirus 3XL very easy, Sirus XXL and Fluid H 3XL easy, Sirus L intermediate, Curve H 3XL difficult, Sirus L very difficult. So my summary after those 4 sessions. I used the Stab Sirus XL 50cm for all FW except for the Curve H 3XL and the Sirus L I used the stab Veloce 47cm

@@pierpa Thank you! Keep training and have fun, that’s the secret 😉
Your timing is perfect for this as I turn my focus from dockstarting to flatwater SUP on an inflatable Cruz and Sirus 156.
This is amazing wideo! Congrats!👏🙂

@@Ludo_freefoiler Ah, thanks, understood. similar to my mast placement (somewhere in the front third, still figuring out the exact sweet spot)
Amazing achievement! Congratulation. In your opinion, if you used a solid board instead of an inflatable board...how much easier would ot be?

How would you compare the pumpability of the different FW? What stab do you use?
