Grazie! You have no idea how much this has helped me.

[@Dantanalicious]

Right on! Nailed all the things I was doing wrong and now all the things I will “try” and do right! I was blaming my 82l wave board in light wind, the problem is squarely my technique!

[@FedericoMorisio]

Go go go! And then let me know 😁🤙

[@katiamathes4733]

Thank you Fede! Will try it next time in the water.

[@jrommeke]

Thank you 👍 In hindsight I think not keeping proper distance to the rig causes most of my problems with tacking. Thanks for pointing that out 🤙

[@FedericoMorisio]

Yes, that's really important and nobody really focuses on it much; but it makes a huge difference!

[@davidarcher2122]

great video explaining the important points and correct balance, i will imporve more, Thanks,

[@FedericoMorisio]

Stoked to hear this David!🤙

[@michelletran7852]

Great instruction. Thanks. And very easy to understand.

[@markbrady5594]

Thanks, excellent instructions, especially the super key things (staying central and balanced, and distance to sail), which I think I miss when I'm focusing only on the physical moves. Pretty surevit's going to help me a lot😊

[@FedericoMorisio]

Yes Mark! Go for it and let me know how it goes!🤙

[@Qwertinoo]

Good video, I’ll try it next time

[@StressMats]

Me too, wish it is as easy as it looks

[@FedericoMorisio]

Go for it Nick!

[@FedericoMorisio]

​@@StressMats I know, tacking isn't easy, but focus on these points and analyse the mistakes you do everytime you try. It's quality trial and error, that's the key 👌👊

[@bendavies9461]

Excellent!

[@aleksanderwodkowski8965]

hi, thx, gr8 explanation.

[@michal5869]

This movie helped me believe that my 80kg on a 115L foil board could work, but now in 90% of the time, I am trying to avoid falling in light wind. I do not have much experience.

Nice. Keep upright, feet in the middle, sacrifice the mast position for body position.
