Gave Flakas and Air Gybes a try today. With the help of your videos, I got much closer than I could have expected. Thanks again!🤙

Landed it 4 times today, cheers guys :) Got a lot of improving to do though - not as clean looking as yours. Thanks for the great videos keep it up! And for anyone trying the Flaka, stick at it and it'll come; its worth the effort :)

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

@@DamienLeroyKZbin Excellent! Been getting some nice air but not confident enough to go for the flaka !

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

@@fishcakes2 You are ready! :)

@@DamienLeroyKZbin waaaaahooooooo I went for it today and it was less scarier than I had imagined it to be , was doing some nice floaty jumps and then on the way down did the rotation. Only really doing 180 in the air and spinning the last bit in the water. Sooo happy , thanks for your positive approach the teaching 😎😎😎

Someone ask where the name come from but it delate is comment. I already wrote an answer so If you ask yourself why Flaka, here is an answer. It's a windsurf tricks. That means flat taka. It was created un 2002/2003. And a Taka is a 360 on a wave. A video will explain that better so => kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJ6kZZJtqL6rd9U The name Taka come from the guy who invented it, Takaharu Kamaguchi (Nickname Taka)

Almost when I'm ready to learn - perfect timing! Thanks for the dedication Damien + Gwen team!

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

We appreciate you, thank you!

[@Kat-ne3er]

thank you for tips and mood! I try!

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

Thank you!

[@alvarobajo]

You’re awesome guys! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and stoke! I had a pair of scare situations trying new tricks when I fall backside and muy feet get stuck in the straps putting ankles is a dangerous situation. Since my Sky Wing 5’0” with a 1500 HA gets totally flat is this cases and there’s no time to put out my feet, the only solution I found is bend the knees. Any tips on this? It’d be pure gold cause I a little bit scared of trying this kind of tricks.

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

Put some more time on the water so that you don't get those crazy bends before you try this trick. Get comfortable with little hops and try to perfect them without any scares. I wish I had the pure gold answer for you friend but I know with more water time, you will get there!

[@christoph4333]

VERY nice .. thanks!! nice to see the process

[@laertimoises1831]

Seria bom se tivesse legenda em português 👍🏿

[@nicholasobea5502]

Great vid, that landing more rear foot pressure was key for me keeping the nose of the board up so it would spin around.

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

Great to hear, glad we could help!

[@texatthebeach]

So cool, going to try this next session, thanks guys

[@DamienLeroyYouTube]

Thank you!
