This question is not to topic but can you make a video on flagging out the wing?

[@wingmanfoilclub]

For sure. Probably get there with this series, but it may take a while as I’m going in order. In the meantime, you can sign up on the WFC forum and ask your question in the Wing Foiling section being more specific about what you’re unclear about. I offer free coaching on that forum and usually reply immediately if not on the water or in a movie. :) you’ll also almost certainly get advice from Headip on there and maybe some others.
I also have a How to Ride Swell tutorial which briefly covers flagging the wing.

High top booties to protect those ankles bruh...

A great idea. But then you’re gonna look like a kook in shorts!
