Obviously NOT an easy move... BUT... learning to sail Clew first Switch stance WILL improve your onshore riding. Learning to UpWind 360 with help you with nearly every Freestyle maneuver. ...and if you can master those 2 things... you'll be surprised this move (and the Taka) are NOT far off! ...it's one of those moves where you are getting Nowhere... then suddenly you do one. As when you get it right it just goes around.
Great tutorial! I really like this format. Flat water and low wind practice to improve your wave sailing.. Surely there are so many more things to work on which will benefit the (probably for most of us) rare days with great wave sailing conditions. Quick solid tacks, clew first water starts, chop hop, keeping speed in meshy waves and all freestyle moves which has a link with wave tricks. This gives the average wave sailor a purpose for the less wavy days. Great work Ben!:)
Very good teaching video. We have no wave here (lake) but will definitely try the taka on the flat. Thanks again and yes you can bring more freestyle move!
Ive been freestylin for 10 years+ I can do shaka, spocks, flakas, funnels, loops... all both sides BUT i could never really do the clew first puneta. Weird!!!
Really? Wow… that’s interesting. Have you tried them a lot? …for me it was one of the quickest moves I learnt! P.s It’s strange you do funnels.. as it’s pretty much a funnel!
Actually I've never really practice it much, I find you need quite consistent wind and you have to go downwind a lot to get control sailing clew first so you loose ground. When I sail in wave I try the taka though

thank you Ben for all the energy and the passion you put on your channel, it's awesome !
Thanks Ben, great stuff.....also good to see a little bit of you ripping in Rhosy!
As a “I do wave not freestyle” guy this was very interesting. Feels like I have been missing out on practice opportunities!!
