I tried ‪@yvonvite_AXIS‬'s Inverted Drop Start for the first time and this happened...

So what is the best way to start your pump foil from an high dock?
Is it true that Yvon's technique is better for beginner foilers? Is it superior to the classic dockstart too?
Watch the video untile the end and find it out.

In this series, I’m documenting my journey into pump foiling with the goal of helping beginners like me return to the dock, pump longer and further in any condition, and start from anywhere, so that in a near future we’ll unlock together the full potential of this discipline and explore the beauty of the world on our tiny body-powered boards.

Thanks for your video comparaison 😍... Try to focus to land both foot at the same time if you can, I know it's not easy when you don't have a very high dock and you cannot put completely the wing under the dock. I will make soon a rock start tutorial also with the "inverted" start. 🤟

[@gaeldaniele]

Thank you for the tip! Will try. Can't wait to see the "Inverted Rockstart"!

[@FoilFanatic42]

Looking forward to seeing thos as well! Good work!

@Gaël Daniele Congrats on a 1K subs, keep up the great content, I enjoy learning from you!

[@gaeldaniele]

Thank you to you guys all for the support! Happy to help!

[@SnwbrdB]

The guide has been really great as well.

In my opinion, with a normal drop start you land with your back foot first, while with an inverted drop start you land with your front foot first. Landing with both feet at the same time didn't work well. I had problems with it too and haven't managed it yet. Even though Yvonite describes landing both feet at the same time, I think the front foot should be on the board a bit earlier. Thanks for the video. Next time I'll practice it that way too
ups at the end of Video you say it , I wrote before I looked to the end 😅

[@slappyosis]

Thanks for comparison! One thing I would change though is the name. Reverse drop makes a lot more sense.

[@gaeldaniele]

True!

[@bosbcn]

How much is your setup?

[@martinminar1949]

Hi there, is there particular reason why you are on curve H xxl and not on sirrus xl? Is the curve easier for a dead start? Thank you.

[@gaeldaniele]

Hi! I was on the Curve simply because I was pumping outside that little marina to try to catch some little waves! And I want to improve my pumping technique on smaller foils

[@MarcEgli]

I only realize after Yvones video that I learned inverted before it was cool. You can also do an inverted push hop no need to drop start. This is me in 2021 th-cam.com/video/MbBDvRwoshc/w-d-xo.html

[@gaeldaniele]

you definitely are an early adapter! thanks for sharing your video!

[@ukarlsson]

really smooth reverse starts on your channel!
