And, how with heavy board and sail? Thangs

Can you still see them now in 2024?

Tysm, I would always catch my toe edge trying to go wide for a turn on the cables, and wasn’t able to get wide enough until now!

Great advice! Yes especially keep that mast tip pointing to the wave, mostly things will be ok. Board to wave? Disaster beckons. When plodding out timing is everything - the wave breaks in front of you, fine, go over the whitewater - the wave hasn't broken as you get to it, fine, sail over the ramp. However assuming forward motion and some power in the sail. I've found that surprisingly large waves can be sailed through even if they break on my head. Just keep everything at 90 degrees to the wave as you get engulfed. Furthermore, if you do lose it when going through, you are already ahead of your kit in respect to the wave, so it will be blown *off* you, not *into* you - whereas an ill judged dismount might put you into a bad position. Of course with really big waves discretion is the better part of valor!

Legend has it that a PWA event came to Hove one year - they launched at high tide and half got mashed. Pro or not, Hove shorebreak doesn't care, it will eat you if you get it wrong!

This isn’t a deep water start

Nice advices and biceps my frend 💪

Thanks!

What falls, or aggressive moves you should look out for, so that you dont injure your knee?

Thank you i get my board this week so excited 🎉

Cool vid! Sometimes they dry up at low tide, very important to stay behind the swell and wait for the set to come through to feel the beach with water. Worst case lean back, push super hard on the back foot and let the white water guide you in!

Ah yes the days of the box

great tip, thanks!

nice cheeks

I snowboard so it comes naturally to me but I forgot

what sailsize?

Thx

dat aas

This video is so old and forgotten

Thanks for the tips! Good vid, it took me years of training to get in at my home spot - on some days it is similar to Hove but dead onshore and sandy...also sometimes underpowered. Has been easier to ride 4 meter waves than to get in that thing :D

Nice explanation, thanks 👍

I would love to see a more complex tutorial on line tension, Sometimes I do it right sometimes I do it wrong and I never know why 😅

Awesome! Thanks for the video, I’m new to wakeboarding but absolutely loving the sport so far! I’m hoping to try and progress to some simple surface tricks once I get my toe side edge sorted out. I’ve found that I’ve been getting whipped round a lot of tight corners because I haven’t been on my toes enough.

Super tip!

I'm a beginner and this is extremely useful. Thank you.

Hi, it seams you are using K4 fins on your Fanatic board. Could compare it with G10 or other type of material?

ty

thanx, very useful. I will try it this season. One problem may be balancing my big 3,5m Fanatics board with one hand.

Very informative. Thanks for he safety tips

Thank you 🙏 just picked up board with same fin setup, do you have a thruster setup video

Can you make a comparison between heavy surfers' and lightweight surfers' equipment and setup ? Assume you have 2 surfers with 200lbs(90kg) and 150lbs(70kg) weight. Or two surfers of same weight 70kg but different height, 160cm vs 190cm... Just assume same wind conditions ,same surf experience, say 20knots wind and intermediate level, both are using harness line... How should they choose their equipment?

Thank you very much, i broke several masts since then i am more cautious..

Thank you very much

Man, u guys used to let me out with your gear back in 2001 in heavy shorebreak. I couldnt even beach start or tack! Oh the days before health and safety!

Thanks! !!very helpful.

I've been doing this so wrong. Thanks for saving me so much time. xD

How do I go from the beginner position to the further back and out positions for footstraps? It feels all wrong. What else do I need to change. I can plane/blast in both footstraps in the beginner position. Thanks

Thats a nice vid👍🏼

Great tips!

Very helpful. Very different from water-skiing. Temptation is to get up too soon.

Thank you👍

Wow so fun😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Thanks

Thanks

Thanks Lucas! Another thing that was a big change to me (Da Curve 80ltr, 64kg) was footstraps' position + baseplate. One idea back and turned my board so loose and made it faster, was told that put me more on the rocker :P.

Thank you. Greetings from Brazil

Thank you very much, I'll be trying and practing next time.

Great video - clear, and straight to the point!
