    Once more, an excellent tutorial! No other channel comes close in terms of breaking down the maneuver in easy steps, making it easier to practice, also showing what happens when you get it wrong, etc. Absolutely love your movies!
  • Absolutely the best tutorials ever on YT. This has an academic, methodical approach to teaching the sport I never saw anywhere else, and there a zillions of self proclaimed teachers out there but they cannot describe the stuff with such precision. This is pure gold. Not to mention the quality of the footage and examples... World-class stuff. Thanks for sharing.

    I learned this last year, on that day I tried over 20 or 30 times, maybe even 40. It was quite workout falling and getting up. One good point I took from this was riding comfortably toe side and carving up wind. I managed that with old wing but now riding smaller wing and am not that comfortable riding toe sided just yet. The other issue is where I wing, the water is choppy.
