Wing Foil Basics: Beginner Control Tips

[@markhoughton5294]

This is the best explanation I have found on the basics of handling a wing. Thank you very much.

[@kitesurferpeter]

Great summary George, very helpful

[@deniz7mel]

This is one of the best beginner tutorial vids on youtube. I immediately looked up the location to sign up for lessons. But, alas I'm a couple of thousand km south in Victoria. George is an excellent communicator. If he can accomplish this much in a 6 minute video imagine the learning experience in a full lesson. Had my first practice session on the beach yesterday, glad I found this video. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Deniz, glad you found it helpful! We've got some great wing foil spots up this way if you need to escape the cold in a few months time ;)

[@dannyvardanian]

Thank you George! Excellent Explanation. I have a had one lesson followed by a two hour hire a week later...where I went across the wind....next week I have another 2 hire can’t wait to try your keeping /going up upwind method....and hopefully I ll be foiling in the new year !

... been up riding on foil for extended times the last couple of sessions ---- I though this was an excellent tutorial ---- perhaps some of it seemed obvious ---- but it wasn't so obvious to me ---- thank you

[@mindofown]

Hi. Thanks for making this video, it is excellent. Regards.

[@irf888]

Hi Again, I watched this video yesterday and today in my second session ever I got up on the foil today effectively in both directions. I have been kite foiling for a while, this helped as once on the foil I was fine. But wanted to say thanks again for the video, as I did exactly as you described and that helped heaps. But man, all that pumping what a tough sport and full body workout! Regards.

[@AdventureSportsAU]

@@irf888 Awesome, that's great to hear it's helped and you're going well with it! Wing foiling is awesome fun but definitely uses a lot of muscles you don't normally use, it can be pretty tough on the shoulders until you've got some sessions under your belt for sure.

“ it’s about learning how to fly this wing properly.” - perfect.

[@Justwantahover]

I was wondering if these were legal in Australia, seems like they are.

[@AdventureSportsAU]

For the most part, yes, but local laws etc. may vary so best to check. You can check in with the KA (Kiteboarding Australia) as the org covers wing foiling now and are pretty up to date with different state/territory regulations.

It's a bad habit to keep your arms on the bar. The way you hold on it to pull up bar. You have to place your arms simply like you. Hold in the flag, both arms should blaze with the thumbs up simple texting. Absolutely changed the way your muscles work. Because you're flying wing the same as when you fly. The flag comes up both arms, you switch the direction. Both arms thumbs up, enjoy.
