Why are you jabbing the tiller?

[@DeatonFoiling]

This is to get rid of ventilation which is caused when foiling high in cold water. It causes your rudder to lose traction so you have to jab it to remove the air pocket to allow yourself to steer again.

​@@DeatonFoiling you could try to put less lift on rudder

[@DeatonFoiling]

@@vitogiove2636yes that’s one way of correcting it if reducing overall height from the main foil does not do enough. I’ve found just from sailing myself this seems to work best and the occasional vent is ok as pushing the boat by riding higher helps a lot with speed, even if it does vent more during the winter. Thanks very much for the point!
