You're very welcome!

excellent tutorial (and I have seen plenty...) Exactly where I am at right now. (foiling comfortably in straight line, but crushing when even thinking of going into a jibe)

I fell today 20 times trying to swich the feet during the gybe. In the middle of it or just after changing hands. I should have seen your video before. Great video you've done there. Thank you. One question if you don't mind. During the gybe, where do you look at? Where do you focus? If I look to the water I get the feet in the wrong place. If I look to the board I don't turn. If I pretend I'm not looking anywhere it's a disaster. Where do you keep your eyes on?

We have countless hours practicing and visualizing the foot switch on the beach. Make a pattern in the sand and close your eyes. Repeat the movement over and over again. Therefore the thought process is more muscle memory and that when you're able to feel the board not just see it. Taking it all in and absorbing your surroundings. Down to the very ripple on the wave or the wind shift in your hair. Don't focus on the big stuff let it come natural by separating the the movements on the beach.
