Two Clowns on the water doing much Better. Session 10.

Today the condition was perfect, we did a lot of surfing, but still no Foling, we are slowly getting there.

Gear:
Board: Gong Hipe 6.0 160L.
Wing: Aztron 5.0
Foil: Gong Allvator XXL

That equipment is perfect for you, too many people go too short very quickly, get the basics first under your belt, learn to just bear off the wid a bit to get some speed, then standup and you can then start to point the nose upwind a bit. Without wind or pumping technique, yes you will just drift around all day. I went many times in light wind and wondered why I could not get up on foil...boom as soon as you have wind you will come up on foil.
More time on the water the better, just for wing handling and orientation. I have read some comments about ditch the inflatable board, take no notice, if you look at Gongs website and you see what they can do with that type of board and what you are trying to do, you have no worries.
You just need more wind or a bigger wing to get you going until you discover the pumping technique.

Happy foiling....from sunny Spain the med!!

Pump that wing and foil... synchronicity is needed. Always good to be out with someone when learning. Good to see

Keep going! Time on the water is everything!

That is tough wind to schlog in. Good on ya for doing that much with what you were given! 17mph makes for easier on foil.

What helped for me is that I was pulled behind a boat. So you know what it's like to get on foil.

More wind, go cross-wind, and lose the inflatable board which seems to keep submarining. Good luck and keep practicing!

[neilbrady]

You are going on a "downwinder" . That needs more wind than you're getting. Straighten out your leading arm and turn your body to head into the wind, then a few pumps and you're up.

A couple of pointers.
Looks like your front leg is too far forward on the board.
And maybe tweak the position of the foil.
For more lift place the foil more towards the nose of the board. For less lift and more control, place it further back in the box.
Other then that keep at it. 🤙🤙😊
