Learn to Control Your Foil!

I ride my foil SWITCH for the first time in this video so I can learn to gain control of my wake surf foil to better convey the key tips I tell people when coaching them to ride their wing for the first few times. The rhythm and control is something that is so different when riding a foil and I've found some pointers to help speed up the learning curve so they can soon get into the wave and go without the rope!

I can't wait for these next few vids to come out! I reckon this is about where I'm up to with foiling!!

My team is presently struggling to switch. Very reassuring to learn that this is normal.

So cool to see the progression and those "uh oh" moments during the learning process! Still making it looking easy. I would love to try foiling, but it's not a cheap setup ☹Any tips on how to start or try without a significant monetary investment?

You make it look easy. BUT ITS NOT!!!
Definitely gonna get one and try to figure it. Was super fun to try.

Do you have to have a ballast setup for this? And can you foil without a tower, just get up using the tow hook

[Stanton_High]

You going to get into winging next? You should try it brother

You've got guts Shaun! I do not see myself attempting to foil switch in the foreseeable future, much less trying to switch WHILE riding. And I've been foiling for three seasons now. Hats off to you sir!

Still commenting for YouTube algorithm and paragon giveaway! 👍

Thanks for showing the progression! It gives you a great perspective of what it is to learn again that that is super useful for teaching.

I think the slow pump theory is pretty sound. But I would also point out that the smoother the water you can get on to learn, the better. I tried in pretty choppy waves the first session out (not to mention, it was really cold!) and while I was able to get on plane, it wiped me out really fast because I spent most of my energy just trying to keep my stability in check.

which model you are using? can you post more detail? board, mast, wings? Thanks,

Believe or not your on a wing and a prayer! I think you’ll get the reference!
