Tutorial: The Race Jibe in Wing Foiling – Technique, Tips & Common Mistakes

Und ich der Untertitel

- Yoga improves balance, coordination and stability for windsurfers and is outdated as an unsportsmanlike cliché.  
- Specific asanas such as tree, downward facing dog, twisted chair, side plank, pigeon, warrior lunges and boat are presented.  
- Variations, holding time and repetitions control intensity; the focus is on core strength, hip opening, back relief and better performance on the water.

- Wingpass jibe from the cross slope is a jibe variation when wingfoiling with wing transfer behind the back.
- Prerequisites are safe foiling in switch stance, ideally experience with Wingpass Tack and Wingpass Jibe/Heineken Duck Jibe.
- The execution takes place from the cross hang on a downwind course, with a neutral wing close to the downwind and rotation of the front tube around the body.

- Surf trailers for bikes are practical when petrol prices are high, parking spaces are scarce and distances to the water are long.  
- Ready-made surf trailers from established manufacturers can cost several hundred euros.  
- With an affordable Cargo II trailer from around 100 euros and adaptations, you can build a functional surf trailer yourself.

- Epoxy resin, precise sanding and an economical amount of resin are key to dense, stable laminate and fin repairs.  
- Fins are built up and wet-sanded in several stages using a resin/carbon mixture and carbon fibres on the leading edge, trailing edge and tip.  
- Boards can be repaired conventionally over a large area or "arthroscopically" using minimally invasive techniques; mast foot tendons should be checked every 2-5 years and replaced if they are torn.

Tips & Tricks

- The foiled jibe is challenging for wing beginners; a large, wide foil board makes it easier to learn step by step.  
- A preliminary exercise on land focussing on the grip technique helps to avoid mistakes when gripping the wing on the water.  
- The key point is to pull the wing upwind with your front hand before gripping it so that the nose of the board does not fall off.

- Almost any all-round or touring SUP (9-12 feet) is suitable for learning to wingsurf with a wing in light winds.
- A centre fin is required for less lateral drift, WindSUPs have this, other boards can be retrofitted.
- Various retrofit systems with a tensioning strap or adhesive fin box are available and are also used in wingsurfing schools.

- Das Foil sollte vor dem Transport montiert bleiben, Flügel-Cover schützen Personen und Material vor Verletzungen und Beschädigungen.  
- Empfohlen wird das seitliche Tragen: eine Hand an der Fuselage, die andere an der oberen Fußschlaufe, Foil bleibt dabei stets im Blick.  
- Bewährt sind vor allem Schulter- und Seitentrageweise; Kopfmethode ist umstritten und bleibt wie alle Varianten Geschmackssache.
