This is reality. Not everyday is planing conditions. Thanks for finding purpose on a low day.

Very useful and clear as usual. Last week I found myself thinking of one of your tutorial when in the water… that’s mean it’s good stuff 🤟

[@dairyairman]

You correctly point out that the basic motions and mechanics are the same for the non-planing, planing, and foil jibes. I didn't fully realize that until I started watching your videos. For years I assumed the planing jibe was much different than the non-planing jibe. Lately I've been practicing the non-planing jibe just like you describe it and carrying the same motions into the planing and foil jibes. That has really helped!

[@jamesdougall2886]

Great vid Simon as always! I kept thinking you were going to run into a lady fishing in the red boat, then finally worked out the "fishing rod" is actually the sound boom for your video! 🤣🤦‍♂️

[@Cookiesports]

Haha! So close there James…. The boat was part of the session with me… but not a sound guy, I have a mic clipped onto me when I’m filming for the sound 🎙 He’s carrying a 360 camera on the end of the pole… it creates the drone style shots used a few times during this video! Oh- and he’s and HE… and he loved the fact you thought he was a lady! 👩‍💼 🤣

The best video about gybe I've ever watched on KZbin. Wonderful 👏🏻👏🏻

[@Cookiesports]

🤩🤩🤩🤩 Thanks

[@joakimyliruusi]

This is exactly what im training right now! It is so nice to nail a gybe even though going slow. Feels like magic when for a moment you dont hold on to the boom but the sail comes to you!

Love that drill at the end. Gonna us that.

It’s such a winner! 👍👍👍

[@lukasz3tabis]

Disco jibe I like it 😎😎

[@Cookiesports]

It’s crucial to a successful gybe!

[@mikethompson2152]

Had so much fun practising this in light winds over the weekend. Beats sitting on the shore waiting for the wind and hopefully I will reap the benefits when the wind comes. Practised a few non planing duck gybes as well, although im not sure it will give me the confidence to try ducking in planing conditions! Keep the vids coming, I’m learning so much that I’ve been doing wrong!

[@Cookiesports]

Thanks 🤩👍

[@pinocavallini3067]

Sail across! Of course. That made all the difference for me. Thanks!!

[@Cookiesports]

Huge difference 🤩🤩🤩

[@Jhoekstra]

You really convinced me to get a bigger board so I can practice more. Thanks!

[@Cookiesports]

Do it! It’ll make t he world of difference in your gybes!

[@myfelicidade]

This technique is useful even in stronger winds when you want to jibe very tightly: once in the correct position (after the 5 H) just put more pressure on the back foot before sheeting in. This raises the nose of the board slightly, allowing it to pivot within a few meters.

[@Cookiesports]

Nice idea… what you’re describing is called a Flare Gybe… nice way to turn around in the conditions you describe and others!

[@djappletonify]

Not even had the chance to watch it you, but I'm sure it's up to the normal standard. Wanted to say thank for creating some low wind technique as that normally the only conditions that luck give me. Any other light wind drills would be very well received.

[@Cookiesports]

Haha! Hope you’re still as positive once you’ve watched it! Thanks 👍👍

[@ricciuccio]

Great video, Cookie. I've always got this wrong and thrown the sail forward instead of across. Can't wait to being on the water again to try it. 🏄🏻‍♂️

[@Cookiesports]

👍👍👍👍

Thanks. 🤩🤩

[@bradleypatterson5706]

Great video. Watched a couple of times. Question on flipping the sail. Should you flip when across the wind so that there is less power. Some of my gybes I find the rig flip is hard as too much power in the sail when clew first.

[@Cookiesports]

If you sail all the way through the gybe to a reach, then try to flip the sail, it will be ripped very quickly as it has further to rotate… If you rotate the sail earlier it will have less to rotate and be easier. (So try doing it closer to a broad reach.👍👍👍

[@bradleypatterson5706]

@@Cookiesports thanks for the quick reply. I will try that and update this post once successful. Just had surgery so I am out for 3 more weeks.

[@Tobias1949]

Thank you for this nice video it helps me a lot in learning the full planing gybe. I think my problem is to initiate the gybe way too early with too less speed. You always say 'everything starts upwind' but right now I am struggling to get properly downwind. I don't now what my problem is, maybe it is the chop or me being afraid of going too fast. I don't think you have a video about this so far. I would appreciate.

[@Cookiesports]

Thanks for watching! Try this video… it’s exactly what you’re looking for… kzbin.info/www/bejne/npDbhGCPm9ylqJo

Thank you! I have learned a lot from your videos. What board and sails would you recommend for the beginner? My weight is 65kg.

[@Cookiesports]

Thank you! Beginners we coach on very large boards, 180lt or bigger. Come to Vass this summer and I’ll teach you!

Thanks! Great as always. But, what does "Hooves" mean? Thanks Roy

[@Cookiesports]

Thanks Roy! Hooves are your feet… they are actually the feet of horses, and donkeys and such animals, but I like the alliteration of all the H’s so stick with HOOVES when talking about my feet! Sorry to confuse you! 😜

[@friedmanroy]

@@Cookiesports Thanks!

[@robhruska7611]

Use this in marginal conditions when you have enough wind to just plane but not enough to plane all the way through. I throw the sail to the outside off the turn quickly as i am coming off plane and the board comes around super quick. Still struggling with the rig flip sometimes as i still have the bad habit of looking at my hands.

[@Cookiesports]

Sounds like some class “gear gazing”’going in there! 😜

[@horsemadf1]

When you do the rig flip it looks like it drops a bit towards the water? Or does it stay upright as you do the disco move? If I let my heavy 7.5m twin cam drop much I wouldn't be able to get it back up. I'm on a narrow smaller volume board and it's a bit of a balancing act to do gybes.

[@Cookiesports]

It definitely drops- it’s like a scooping action. You have to counter balance against the weight of it- we weigh more than or sails- and at this point they’re not powered up so should be easy enough! The “discos” part of this is all about the counterbalance! 🙌🙌

[@youralpadventure]

YEEEHHHHHH!!!!!

[@Cookiesports]

YYYYYEEEEEEHHHHHH!!!!!! Now, bring on the snow!

[@elliotiphone]

When should I gybe like this please? And at what wind speed do I have to try a lay down gybe to depower the rig please. Or is it not necessary to lay down at all? Gybes are fine in low winds but go pear shaped in higher winds. Thanks

[@Cookiesports]

Non-planing gybes like this are for when you are not planing, in non-planing conditions. Lay done gybe are generally not-necessary, and in fact a lot of people do them wrong and result in powering the sail up- not de-powering!

[@friedmanroy]

Hi, is the Disco exit working/recomended in stronger winds?

[@Cookiesports]

This style of rig flip should be your go-to in all winds! 👍

[@bogdan.dobrowolski]

Can I get a direct link to that soundtrack/audio background that you use a lot in your videos. ???
