Wind and Wings – Understanding Wind Direction and Which Way it will Push a Wing Foiler

Wind DirectionThis video series shows wind direction and how to wing foil in the direction we want to go.  Using animation I created a map of Crissy Field in San Francisco and show the various ways a winger will get pushed depending on the wind direction and which way the current is flowing.  I go through the four seasons showing the changing wind directions, and show what the wind does as storms pass through.   This information can be applied to any beach in the world.

Foiling Switch, Unnatural, Weak Side – Riding with Either Left or Right Foot Forward

Foiling SwitchThis video series shows how to foil on our weak or unnatural side.  Tips and video breakdowns on how to progress through the challenge of flying straight and staying on foil long enough to complete a reach.  The first ten or so sessions were very frustrating for me and no advice helped.  I hope to change that with this tutorial and get everyone foiling with either left or right foot forward. There are 5 videos in this series.
