Piros said..Finally starting to get the low wind starts together. Very sketchy 10-12kn day . Learnt a lot from a couple of ex pro windsurfers Pat & Tim . I've spent most of my time in the ocean on the ding but this still water training has helped so much , cheers again boys. That's Pat in the video boosting in this low wind . I'm riding the new DT Echo 5m , Pat is on the old DT 5m .
Hey Piros,
what did you learn about getting going in 10-12 kns? From the video it looks like you are pulling on the wing at the same time you are bending your knees and unweighting off the board.I have managed to get going in 12-15 kns with a 4m wasp , I generally wait for the gust ,bear downwind a little with a small wave and try to get up in the trough pumping the wing and board, sometimes when I'm up I have to pump through the wind lulls just to stay on foil before the next gust comes along.
