I’ve watched a million videos about winging. I should’ve watch this one first. Great job

[@samluna3778]

Agreed! It's the only one I've found so far, even including ones titled things like "Winging upwind", that actually explained the $@%# methodology! I knew I couldn't go directly upwind, but I didn't realize how wide you really need to go. I knew leaning the wing forward/aft would spin the nose around, but I wasn't quite sure when or how much to do that.

best informative basic wind & sailing video tutorial, thanks !!

[@saxmaniac2550]

This is the best explanation I’ve seen of the wind clock and how to use it, thanks!

[@cowboysmith7972]

This is the best, most informative video I have watched to help me learn and understand how to operate a wing in the wind for wind surfing, or winging on a water foil. THANK YOU! How this video does not have at least 200K views I don't understand.

As a newb this was VERY helpful. The wing is like a canoe paddle.. Drag it to turn.

Great video was having a lot of trouble trying to go upwind directly and the Irons explanations put everything in perspective

[@jbpadel]

exactamente lo que estaba buscando, todo el rato acababa apuntando hacia el viento y quedándome desventado. Probaré prestando más atención al pié en que se pone el peso y también al concepto de cambiar el balance solo un momento para reorientar y luego ponerse otra vez en posición balanceada

Best video on youtube! Thanks 😊

[@nikosdorkofikis7998]

Excelent video! so enlightening and to the point.

Does the front foot rear foot advice works also if you have both rear and middle fins on your sup?

[@mox1968]

So as a beginner, what would be recommended wind directions in position with the beach? Crosswind?.

[@reydecastro6651]

I am totally new to winging and I recently added as Slingshot Sup Winder Keel to my iSup [Body Glove Tandem]j. I am not sure that this video takes this into consideration, but would you say that the keel also serves as a pivot point for turning? Would it be ideal to position the keel between my legs when pushing a turn, or should I move forward or aft of the keel for more turning leverage? This is a 15' board that I am experimenting with, and learning from.

[@cielonosueno]

Useful thank you 👍

[@oaiaferoce]

An arrow with the direction of the board at each instant, depending on your feet and wing position, would be great.

[@AlexVynohradov]

Thanks

[@flyingmatyoga]

[@fernandocalanda8260]
