Starting to get the foiling jibes back. Made one flyer and made a bunch with touch downs. The secret is to lean the body into the turns. i.e. Be perpendicular to the board as much as possible at all times during the turn. I wasn't doing this earlier in the season because I was taking a defensive upright position (relative to the earth/water) because I didn't want to fall into the cold water. But in fact this is the exact opposite thing to do if one doesn't want to fall in. Fun relaxing non-nuker of a day! |
