just bought one 🤙🤙🤙
You need to do a pop just before you past to the other side of the board, that work really well
Hi im 16 and i am struggling a lot with jibes, but love windsurfing and will never stop trying.
the 11:30 gybe was SO close 😖
I've already managed to do 3 of these fully foiling tacks, and the most important things is to push your sail in the back of your board, this way, the nose of the board will point up, also starting the tack foiling very high and when switching the stance you should try to "jump".
I already jump in regular windsurfing haha. Fun to switch as quickly as possible. Only 25 sessions in so far but have finally started planning (weak or gusty winds mostly).
I've been trying these tacks for a couple of weeks now, chipped my tooth doing them aswell! I've found that you need to keep your front foot in the strap for as long as possible and put the sail really far back, almost resting it on the board. This has got mine so much quicker. Still haven't got on yet though
I can't even get the tack going on my slalomboard on the fin.. let alone on the foil..
Es ist irgendwie beruhigend zu sehen das auch ein Nico Prien, nach 50 nicht durchgefoilten Wenden am fluchen ist. Es ist wirklich verdammt schwer.
12:04 my best one so far...
Alda bist du hartnäckig...vorgenommen ist vorgenommen👍. Da sieht man warum du so weit gekommen bist🤙💪👌
Somebody can just dark out the video at 12 min 03 sec and say "I did it!", but not you, Nico. Very impressive! Windsurfers are honest people.
I just feel that windsurf is getting every year more technical and difficult for the old guys 🤣🤣🤣 no air tacks for me 😁😁
One crazy idea: if you can’t put your foot in front the mast… maybe it’s possible the FOIL DUCK TACK !?!😱😰👍😜🤟 to have the weight on the stern of the board would be perfect!?!!…Is it possible?!
What do u think about sailing?
Like your video's Nico!! Do you have a video about using a adjustable outhaul on the water? If not, maybe this a idea for your next video?
Hello there! I have seen some of your videos here and tried to find if you have already done the air tack, but I couldn't. You never do it making every time the sane thing. You tack is super fast but I think you are over stepping too early. You have to carve a little more and exaggerate to keep your nose up and maybe doing it too fast you make too much force on the front foot making the nose always come down. I hope you do it. I am trying myself. My conditions here are far from ideal and cannot have 200 tries in one ride. If I do it will be a real miracle!... have faith!
Thanks for this, an inspiration for me. I'll take my 1000 front wing with a small sail and the stab at +1°. And the 115 fuse, of course (might be a bit cold these days - and lonely - but what the heck.That way everyone will be taken by surprise next summer, hahaha!😁🤙)
Wow this is really good for us mortals, dealing with failure
I think Harry Joyner is even closer to the sail (in a still frame the mast is basically between his thighs) when shifting to the other side while putting the sail back to the max. I hope it will work one day
Because when you step on the base the center of gravity is very forward and there is no chance you can stay foiling
Try stepping aroud the sail not on the base to keep your lift
Nice vid. Next time you going for a beerbong at surffestival.then u will easy make it :)
Just get the 200++ fuselage and you'll nail it
ich hab überlegt ob es nicht möglich wäre das ganze in einer HeliTack/Schleuderwende zu machen. Dabei geht man ja hinten rum ähnlich der Halse und hat so das gewicht hinten, sl dass das foil liften kann.
Da sieht man wieder, wie weit der Süden Europas in Front ist, da das Surf-Magazin das foilen bis 2016 ignoriert hat.
Beim Foilcamp 2018 am Gardasee fuhr ein Typ mit Horue Board und Foil schon die gefoilte Helitack.
Die Gesichter von Robby, Michi Schwaiger und Bernd Roediger sprachen da Bände 😂
i do them pretty good considering i am 12
from outside, you are already too low when starting the move...
You don’t say…
Moin ich bin begeistert von deinen Videos. Du bekommst ja alle Boards gesponsert was passiert mit den aus dem vorjahren verkaufst du die oder gibst du sie zurück?
Hi Nico ! Caps looks amazing. Are you planning to sell some of those beauties with a curved visor ?
Thanks !
nope :-)
@@Nico_GER7 :-(
Second 👍🏼+🤙🏽 😂
I just got a new slalom sail its the 8.6 ga vapor. Cant wait to go on the water with it, it is my first cambered race/freerace sail.
Nailed my first foiling jibes recently after adjusting my set up a bit. I felt like King Kong as I finally got it! 🦍😅
When will it be the next attempt?...
Ich wäre schon froh wenn ich so oft auf mein Foil käme wie du das Manöver übst 🤣🤣.
Schon cool das die „Wende“ beim Foilen next Level ist und beim Windsurfen die Halsen 😬🤩👊🤟
this is what juniors look like
I have problems keeping my board on the foil when I am making a planing heli tack. Any help?
freestylers have entered the chat xD
Best Luck next Time !!!
The foil tack is a really hard challenge. I'm still figuring things out, too. But yeah, good luck! ;)
what I see on the other videos is that the guys have less speed than you; they are in an end of tack with an exaggerated rise then pass on the other side in the descent. you deserve it, you will get it
Thanks for your energy, you will never know till you try. So you will always know more than others. Many thanks for sharing your info and your camera/video guy for making it happen.
Great journey video Nico. Hopefully you will get it and return with another video with the all important crucial information as to how it’s done. The majority of foilers, do not have a foiling squad coach telling us how to improve…. So we are relying on you to tell us. No pressure 👨🏼🎓
Respect Nico!)))👍🤘🤙
Certe immagini sono del lago di garda ????
Got us with that thumbnail background 😅
Cooles neues Video. Warum ist leider Alara nicht mehr zu sehen?
Can i get one free cap pls
Hi Nico,
ich habe noch mal parallel das Video von Harry Joyner angeschaut.
Zum einen wiegt er geschätzt 15-20 kg weniger als Du, was es sicher leichter macht, das Foil oben zu halten.
Zum anderen ist er wohl erst 15 Jahre alt, da trifft auch Dich jetzt der Fluch der Jugend (sprach der alte Sack 😇), die einfach schneller lernt.
Rein von der Fahrtechnik hat er das Board vor der Tack aber extrem steigen lassen, während Du nur auf unterer Höhe angefahren bist und dann auch noch über den vorderen Fuß das Board in den Bach geknallt hast.
Er hat hier sogar noch vor dem Fußwechsel einen zusätzlichen Impuls nach oben gegeben.
Dein Einwand bezüglich der Füße rechts/links vom Mast statt vorne/hinten scheint ebenfalls richtig zu sein. Er hat sozusagen einen Zwischenschritt als Kreuz gemacht, also von vorne/hinten über rechts/links nach vorne/hinten.
Ich wünsche Dir trotzdem viel Spaß beim weiter üben. Ich hoffe, ich komme bald auch mal wieder zum üben 😢
It's good to see someone of your abilities has to put in the hard work to achieve sometime us mere mortars give up to soon
Thank you I know you will get it
Don't give up.
Nico, i'm not a foiler, but would it help, when you prepare for the tag, to point the nose of the board in a more upwards direction?
That would maybe give you a little split second more time before the board goes down and touches the water.
Nice vid again. :)
Was? Hat niemand diesen thumbnail bemerkt? 😂😂😂 Good luck Nico. Hoffe wir sehen deinen Tack in der Zukunft 😎😁👍
Thx 4 the video and the tips, give me hope to suceed , I cannot make the jibe yet, but I think the tack will be done before 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Super Video. Ich bin gespannt, ob es noch mal klappt 😜
Great work Nico. Awesome to show people that professional sailors have to put hours of work in to learn and master a move.
Looks like you’ll get them v soon. 🤙💥
Incredible effort! At the halfway point you did a heli tack, I thought this was the route you'd be taking. The first foiling tack I ever saw on TH-cam done was Balz doing a heli, though he wasn't on massive gear.
Im very New to windsurd, im currently struggling finding drysuit and roofbars. Those 2 things are holding me back
Super Video. Ich bin gespannt, ob es noch mal klappt 😜
After some months looking at IQs complete this move, I think have understood how to do : you have to do a down-up with the nose before jump the other side. So, when you tack, the foil is high and the nose is up, this let you the time to go near the straps to keep flying.
I actually know the guy who first did it we went to school like last year together, he had been trying for soo long so its incredible to see him getting some recognition!
Balz Müller macht das seit Jahren haha also so neu ist das nicht. Mit diesem Material vielleicht :)
Ja logisch auf race Material bezogen… er macht duck tacks
@@Nico_GER7 ja aber nicht nur. Er kann auch normale Wenden und Helitacks usw. :)
@@eliaskraft2482 Er ist einfach die Macht! Wäre interessant zu sehen, ob Balz auch mit iQFOiL stuff eine foil Wende schafft.
@@Nico_GER7 Absolut! Wohne auch in der Schweiz. Vielleicht sehe ich ihn ja mal wieder und kann ihn fragen ;) Oder er solls gleich mal vormachen.
Wie groß war dein segel in der zweiten Session und wie viel Wind war in dem Moment?🤙
Take a bigger frontwing, just for the show 😉
The Weather in Germany is as bad as the shit weather we all get in Britain.. its so Bad
First 👍🏻🙋🏼♂️
Im not a professional, but when I practice new moves i always put on the Insta360 so I know exactly what movements I do😅
have you tried that?
yes, of course. even better when you have someone filming you from outside 😄
No Problem✌🏻🥳😂
good to see you are still alive, after all these
Episode 2 will be the one!!
Moveable mast base that quickly slides aft and forward again to allow your body to cross further aft. Evolution opportunity...
Do a duck tack,
Shortest way around possible..
Will you show me how to duck a 9m sail?
@@Nico_GER7
😂😂😂
What is your biggest sail used for duck jibe, Nico?
I think, i have seen you with 8.5 sqm in one of your vids.
OK, shape of a foil sail is still deeper than normal (fin) racesail, but time will come. 😂
@@Nico_GER7 stretch your arms..
@@Nico_GER7 actually Dorian used to do it all the time during competition
@@dennisboisen wasn't that a duck jibe?
My foil tacks are terrible. I lose so much ground in course racing coz I can’t seem to get the board through the eye of the wind and onto the other tack without stopping. I feel like I just fall in backwards if I turn the board right through the wind. It’s very disappointing. 👎
Wo ist der zweite Spot an dem du warst?
You'll fly it in competition. Those reps pay off combined with watching it fly for others.
I always enjoy your videos and your constant level of stoke! AUS22 appears to be giving a very hard downward pop with his back foot before stepping around, which gets his board high and angled upwards. You seem to be entering much lower and more level, as with a conventional planing tack. Might it be worth trying to almost breach the board before the step? I've almost completed one and it was from sailing into a 60° header (mountain lake). The board just jumped and so did I, but there was no change of direction so it wouldn't have counted even if I'd made it - same heading on port and then on starboard.
Great efforts Nico. I learned a few tips to improve my standard tacks... aiming for a planing tack before flying! Thanks.
Ironically, the answer was staring you in the face from those wingers on day 1. Check out how they switch feet. The boards nose needs be angled up before you step round. If every millisecond on the nose induces a change in angle, you can a) shorten your time on the nose, and b) make sure that the angle never going before 0 degrees to the horizon. YOu didn't appear to enter any of the tacks with the nose up and this is one of the most apparent parts of the foiling tack, especially the 'first ever' video we all saw. I've not managed this myself as I'd switched almost entirely to winging, but the physics of it is the same as the winging foot switch.
Hi Nico. That was a good try and it will come for sure. Keep trying! What brand is yr foil and what size are yr wing and stab?
Well done Nico. You'll get this down with the right conditions.
I blame you choice of conditions to attempt this in.
As we all know, with a steady breeze and the right sail, you would totally have nailed it.
Second thing to do is to do it together. To compete if you like. To see others achieve, or fail.
Watching them try different moves also. You'll get this down. No worries.
Thanks for sharing your work on this one. It helps people like us! Well done buddy
What an energy !!! Great job and really nice to watch. Keep my fingers crossed 😉
nice footage by Lars about the road to a foiling tack. Please keep us posted when you manage to tack it on the foil.
i remembered you saying something about the foil tack at Makkum... nice to see the struggle for al us mortal ones at least for me :D ;)
You're so close to making it, if you just went into it higher on the foil, almost breaching, I think you could coast enough at the foot change to get yourself around before you loose too much altitude.
Oh man, I cant do fast tack and you are trying to do foil tack. I know you can do it!
You did a planing helicopter though 😂
Nice to see you try hard and learn like a mortal human for a change ;)
Great stuff Niko I have to try a foiler
Really enjoyed your video Nico!
Comparing with the video of the IQfoil Aussie lad - your board doesn't usually lift upwards while switching sides. He's like pushing hard on his back foot to lift the board and jump straight to the other side (like jumping above the mast while leaning it backwards). He doesn't touch anywhere near the mast base and not preparing his front foot near the mast base as well. Also he looks like he is more focused on the weight management on the board then the sail control (not immediately bearing away because the mast is between his legs while tacking).
Probably you're doing that but maybe you may try to foil not too high to have some room to lift just before the tack.
Good luck with your first foiling tack! :D
And he’s probably 30kg lighter 😜
If I may...
1) The 115 fuselage will make a HUGE difference with the advanced front wing position. The 105 is too back centered.
2) The nose dive is almost inevitable, but starting the tack at a higher position (80cm) will be a +
3) The smallest sail, the easiest
Can't wait to see the results ;)
I know it will make a big difference. I don't have a 115. I only have NeilPryde slalom foils :-)
Try again but with 115+ fuselage. After training hard with the 105 it should fly better through the tacking arc.
Don’t have a bigger fuse or wing…
you wanted comments : OK .. 44 Euros for Cap WTF ..
