WING FOILING : Riding Waves in light side on shore wind.
Вставка

- Sail out, surf in. Repeat! The number of waves one can ride while Winging in certain wind directions is hard to beat. Self tow session. No padding. No ski partner. No worries!
Summer afternoon here at one of my regular spots for Wing, Prone, SUP and Kite foiling.
Here’s the LINK for the Camera that films me-

“sometimes I can’t resist” 😂 Thanks for all your vids. This is the kind of riding I aspire to…just learning…about 3 weeks in. Thanks for the inspiration!!
Those inside wave sections are very nice! Hard to resist haha. Thanks for tuning in and im glad your stoked! Enjoy the learning process, go out in good wind and ask for advice from other experienced riders 🤙🏽
Seems like a foil would be a must have on the gulf. Every one of those surfers had to be looking going...... ok, wait a minute- I've got to learn that. Definitely the one having the most fun on the beach that day. Killing it in that light wind. Was so light that apparent wind had wing flagging behind you no matter which way you turned!
Definitely my thought. A must have here on the gulf. But after prone and wing foiling here for over 5 years in front of the surfers, im still the only one out here doing it. So I guess they aren’t really thinking how good it is. I’m loving winging in the light winds because the wing is always trailing behind. Feels like prone foiling.
Nice smooth riding Lance. It looks like you had more fun than the surfers. Have you ever tried the 'Alan Cadiz' method of getting on the board and up on the foil? Basically, in the water, positioned between the board and wing, he goes one hand on wing, one hand & arm on board and lifts himself onto the board in sitting position. Then legs up, to place feet on still sitting, lift wing up and generate power. Use lift and forward pull to assist yourself onto feet, position back foot and pump to get on foil. It would appear to be more efficient / faster than getting to a kneeling position and powering from there. (from a beginner wing-foiler)
Thanks Doc, I appreciate you! I have not tried that method before. I think ive seen it along time ago. Will have to look into that and practice it. Seem like it takes strong winds? Where do you ride at?
Looking awesome out there, Lance! I’m actually in Texas right now.. sugar land territory. Wish I could make it down to the Gulf around you.. the water looks real inviting there. But unfortunately can’t make it this time around. Thanks for the tips on calibrating the soloshot last time by the way … I’m having a bit more luck with it now.
Thanks,
Dmitri
Hi Dmitri, im happy to hear the soloshot is working better for you now. It should continue to get easier (hopefully) Thanks for the support 🤙🏽
Big help learning at 310, 515, 620 - flagged frontside carve wrap into handle switch jibe. Something relaxing about light wind waves. Yearly wave mileage very high for Lance!
Glad it helped mike. Those turns feel good. Right?! Wave mileage is way up there for me. Wish I knew how many miles i have traveled on foil and how many miles of waves i have ridden. 8 1/2 years of foiling now!
@@Lanceisoutside Like snowboarding liquid terrain you can't track out. You got Alex A's 2nd prototype?! I'm 1 1/2 now, I may be late but I'm enthusiastic
@michaelrichter7734 never thought about it that way but definitely! No track outs. Oh the joy of being a 1.5 year old foiler! Learning all the time i bet. I have a Alex prototype 1500 wing i use for SUP DW that is magical.
@@Lanceisoutside Learning that I want more waves, I miss Texas! It truly is an amazing journey this foiling- Plenty current fun projects: backwind, carve 360, heel tacks, pumping bump glide, flag surf hacks and carves, switch rides. Alex wise to send you protos, people see you rip, buy gofoils
Love the board shape! On shore light breeze great example 😊 …Lance you ride with the mast so far back!! Interesting 😮
Thanks coach! I have it as far back as it goes. Board is balanced and feels great! What foils do you ride?
@@Lanceisoutside Armstrong MA 1225 currently (85kg) it’s impressive profile “anti-breach tech” is real. Looking to get the newest 1675 pump foil for the lighter wind stuff
And I ride custom boards DW shaped a bit like yours but 99ltr and the other is 116
Lance, sorry for the late question, i am the same height as you i was wondering which go foil tail you are using there in the vid, cheers
Hi Matt, on this session i was using the 14 inch red tail with the long collar. I use that one and the 17 inch red with long collar.
nice! a question: does one have to change hands when wave riding with the wing on the front handle? and if yes, which hand? front? rear? thanx! jordan
Thanks, Jordan! When waveriding with the wing. I dont change hands much. It’s usually in my trailing hand/ right hand since i am regular foot. I sometimes have to push it out of the way or manipulate it with my other hand sometimes. I do it in this video!
Hey Lance, is this the SPI jetties location? BTW, I love your prone/ wind board; great job making that🤙🤙
Hey @22wer33. This is the jetty in corpus. Packery channel. Thanks! Im still really enjoying that board. Works well.
Hi , how many knots is the wind in this video
It was light. About 10.4-11 knots. Was hard to get up on foil.
looks great!!!! it was hard to learn to wing ?
Thank you! I don’t think it was hard. Learn in good winds and ask experienced people for advice. You can do it.
where this at?
Finally, someone is curious of the location. This is at north packery channel. Jp luby beach park. Corpus Christi, Tx. Wind and waves year round.
R u filming with soloshot?
Hi Mike. I am! Its Such a great product when i get it to work properly. Which is now all the time now that I’ve learned all about it from use. Definitely recommend.
