That is the best jibe vid I have seen. Thanks, just what the doctor ordered!

[mbyrnes]

Super awesome jibe tips - one thing that helped me get it was to bend my knees more going into the jibe because control of the pitch changes when the wing is depowered.

Really really clear - thank you - heading out in an hour to give it a try!

Important to understand front hand is palm up before the jibe !

great video Damien, bravo I love it, it looks so easy with your explanations, looking forward replicating your jibe, la classe chef!

Great video I’m nailing my jibes now however light wind is so tricky I let go of my back hand too soon causing my wing to become back winded hopefully I can stop this bad habit lol

"Don't have much power in my wing because I am pointed downwind"...
This is exactly my problem. Thank you.

Great detailed video very helpful beautiful board what are the dimensions of this board and is it considered a mid-downwind board?

[patrickcamarasa]

On the first jibe I can see how you avoid getting your left hand tangled in the leash. That's fine, but there is still some delay and it is distracting. When doing a toe-side jibe, you release the leash from the handle with your forehand after gybing. The leash just gets in the way, what bothers me, but I see I'm not the only one dealing with this issue. There must be techniques (hand/wing movements) that avoid all of this. Sometimes it's okay, but I'm still not perfect with it.

Thank you for the video! 🏄‍♂Which foil are you riding? It seems to have excellent low-speed planing ability but can also generate good speed.

Great video! Love your content. But, when you say oversinking it, what are you sinking about? 😅

[oliviermeekers]

Thanks, now the tacks 🙂 It's more difficult for me.

[foilfkkrz]

How do you like the M1-X. Are you going to review it?

[olivierdecroly]

Please, do for the tack now! Much harder than jibing but so useful!
