Being honest about the journey will help get more people on the water trying and not giving up. Most other sites try to attract subscribers by making and claiming it is easy. Documenting Kelly's journey, with tips of how she can improve from the level of a never ever, to where she is already at, is super encouraging. Thanks for sharing your passion for wind, water, snow and life! It's winter up here in Canada but the spring, she's a coming. Getting pumped! Appreciated.
Thanks for the kind words friend... Just trying to share as much info is possible... Thank you!
Love it when Kelly cracks up when you're going ballistic into Uber instructor mode. Having her beginners videos into the narrative is really useful!
Glad it helped friend! Have a great day and thank you!
:)
I’ve watched LOADS of clips to try and get foiling. This is the best by far. Thanks and keep it up. I just need some wind, now! ☠️
Thank you Rob for the kind words.......We appreciate you!
Thank you for what you are doing! You inspired me to start learning foiling, even though never thought I would like it and keep on regular windsurfing. You are the best, keep on doing what you are doing 🙏❤️
Thank you! Messages like this make our day! Enjoy the learning process....
Thanks Damien and Kelly - great instructional video! I'm off this weekend to give it a shot
Best videos I’ve seen to help us beginners. Explaining in laymen terms, visually helpful, encouraging Thanks Damien and Kelly. Keep them coming!
Thank you friend! We appreciate you!
Great video. I have watched a bunch of wing foiling videos as I am starting myself. I always pick up a tip/trick that I don't see elsewhere. Getting up on foil and staying on foil has been my most difficult milestone to hit. I'm going to try the couple tips you provided in this video and see how it goes. Thanks for providing such great content. Keep it coming!
Thank you friend! You will get it, keep working at it, I promise it will come and you will have the most fun ever! :)
Thanks Damien ! I can’t wait start wing foiling this spring . Your videos are well vulgarized !! Thanks for the help and will keep watching .
Amen! Its all our video guy Gwen he is incredible....... You are going to love it....
So many nuggets of gold for a newbie. Loved it. Keep up the good work guys. Thanks
Thank you for the kind words! We are trying to share all the info with you as possible.....
Thanks Damien, these are great tips. I've just bought my first wing and really looking forward to beginning my wing journey. I've learnt stacks from your channel! Thank you
Thank you these messages make our day! We appreciate you! Your in for a great ride!
Solid teaching skills. Thank you. I really enjoy when you compliment your teaching with video footage for examples. Super helpful moments. With appreciation, Scott
Thank you Scott we appreciate you!
Exellent as allways...thank you Damien, can't wait to get my gear and get started...big inspiration for me mate 💪👊🤙
Thank you for the kind words!
Thanks Damien, that was exactly the video I need right now. Unsticking/pumping the board is what I'm currently trying to get a handle on!
Great to hear thank you for supporting us.....
Butt in vs Butt out was also a breakthrough that I had when learning how to ride a hard boot carving snowboard after reviewing some photos of me - 3 - film photos. people should apricate how incredibly useful all this modern video from phones and action cams can be in your progression, use it, since it is available for so cheap
Great video Damien! Perfect for my actual level right now. Thanks
Thank you friend we have 3 more that will be very helpful coming..... Have a great week!
Love the content and your energy Damo.
Keep the videos coming and great job mate!
Thank you sure will!
As an old-school WindSurfer, mast, boom and sail, everything you said makes perfect sense, I have never used a foil fin or a wind foil but foot placement, balance putting your weight forward once you are up and planing all makes perfect sense to me, I am 56 years old and it’s been about 20 years since I have been on the water but I feel like this is something I could do pretty damn easy
Richard you got this friend!
I have a BIC 350, it's a massive board with a big sail , but stills works. This alternate style would be nice, it will take a lot of wind I think, like 15 knts.
Thank you, I am just learning to wing foil and am at the stage of being on the foil board and freaked about how to manage things when I am up on the foil! This is the most reassuring and best explanation/demonstration about this next stage I have found!
Great to hear and there is much more to come so tell your friends! Thank you for the kind words.
These videos are super helpful thanks for all your work. I love the tag team approach in this video it's quite hilarious yet informative. I think an important point you make is the don't over sheet point. It's often the case that I stall or spin out by over sheeting and then fall. I think a simple explanation of the Bernoulli effect would be super helpful also just to make it clear that if you sheet in too much you're killing the lift in the wing.
Thank you Chris for your insight........
Such a great video Damo you make everything sound fun and easy when you explain ❤️🙏💯💯💯
Thanks Brother! Much love from Florida friend....
Hi guys thank you very much for your video, very clear and engaged, I love your explanations. As a beginner I'm looking forward to trying this on the water! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and your passion. And see you in part 3😊
Thank you for all the kind words! We have a great one dropping on Monday you will love! :)
Fantastic videos....I learn a step and re-watch to reconnect with the small steps. Keep up the great work. Cheers, Rob from Melbourne, Australia
Thank you for the kind words....
It’s been great to see these videos at repeated intervals as I have progressed from a beginner and each time something different now makes sense. This time it was angling the board to control the lift. Next time (when spring gets here) I’ll be ready to understand unsticking the board. Right now I am still at a very passive stage of getting up, need very strong gusts.
Every minute you spend learning only helps! You will rock it in the spring David! Stonger, winds for sure help when learning and learning how to be efficient. You got this friend! Yewwwwwww
Awesome! Thanks for the vids and encouragement. All great help!!
Great video. Thanks for sharing
I am learning foiling too. The video helps.
Looking forward to part 3
For sure you know its coming.... :) Thank you for the support....
Your videos are just superb, Damien!
Thank you friend very kind of you!
These videos have been very helpful for two reasons. First is the pointers you provide. Second is helping me keep the right mindset that I'm going to fall down -- a lot -- but I will eventually get it. I jumped into the sport without ever seeing anyone do it in person. I received all my gear from Adventure Sports two weeks ago. Last week I was on the water five consecutive days. (On the Chesapeake Bay with 50 degree water and one day had 25 degree wind chill.) Progressing nicely thanks to the right gear and your videos. I watch them over and over to help me prepare for my next session.
These messages really make our day thank you! So happy for you friend.... Thank you for sharing.....
This is a really good video. Maybe one of the better instructions I've seen. Thanks Damo.
We really appreciate you Tim! Thank you
Loving the tips from you Kelly , as I am at the same stage,nearly, as you, so can totally relate!
Glad we can help! Have a great New Year!
Thanks a lot ; i was looking for the key of the pumping and in this video you describe this perfectly
We have a special pumping video coming Monday where we go more in depth about the pumping technique, so stay tuned! You will love it!
The best video to learn how to wing foil. It is not easy, I m still learning and I enjoy the process. Thank you so much for your video, your tips are very helpful. Aloha from Hawaii.
Thank you! Happy to hear you are enjoying the process..... That is the goal....
As a lifetime sailor, windsurfer and now kiter I’m just beginning to try wing foiling with help from the local shop in St. Pete, FL. Lots of great pointers guys. I just tried wing foiling recently and I look forward to my next session using your grab bag of tips to help me along.
Great to hear friend! Thank you
Best instructional video by far - well done
Thank you!
Fantastic videos. I’m an old surfer and it’s so much easier. Just practice, adapt and feel it.
We thank you Jessica! Enjoy the process....
Thanks guys your video's help a lot been out twice and got up on my second go was stoked and the tips helped enormously 🤙👍👌
Excellent David! That is what we like to hear! Thank you!
thanks again for another great video and inspiration. I've really enjoyed just walking around the neighborhood with the wing getting the feel of everything. I appreciate the amount of time yall have put in to help others yall must have some mad karma points by now :)
Peter, We can not thank you more for the kind words!
Great 👍.... I’m new in this sport... and I liked who you teach 👊🏻💥
These are awesome. Superb instruction. TY
Thank you! We appreciate you.
Thanks Damien, very helpful indeed. Most appreciated.
Thank you friend....
Damien your videos are awesome!!!! I really like your attitude... Live life to the fullest... anything that can get you in the water is great!!!!!
Thank you so much! We appreciate you!
You’re the best! That help a lot to prepare my summer wing cession on the Lake of Geneva, Switzerland!!! Come wingfoil in Switzerland when possible🏄
Thank you! Glad it's helpful, it would be really fun to come to Switzerland one day!
Thanks even of Im not on the water ‘i feel you’ Nice job. As as windsurfer and kiter and wingsurfer you are super helping me
Great to hear friend! Have a wonderful weekend.....
I'm just at the point that I barely get up on foil a few seconds when the wind is enough. All these tips help a lot. Thank you.
You will get it keep at it and it will come! Have a great day and enjoy the learning process....
Some of my best memories of learning to kitesurf 20 years ago was first learning, so i am hoping i will have a good experience learning kite foil for the first time, i am hoping 40 year windsurfing and 20 years kitesurfing will speed up the process Larry.
Your going to love it! Another 20 years of fun or more.....
Awesome video Damien. I cannot wait until the spring when I can get out into the water and start wing foiling
Technically, today - March 1st is the beginning of meteorological spring. Don't wait for astronomical spring on March 20th- get out now! ; )
Yeeeeewww Buddy! Excited for you Andy! Have a great week...
awsome video,very motivating!
Thank you!
Really love the video's! They've helped so much so far. Watching them over and over again. So finally got up and foiling this weekend, SO STOKED! But now what. How to get proper flight control? Could you maybe do a video on that? Would really help this Dutch girl out a lot 😅 Thanks and keep it up! 🤙🏼
Great to hear glad we could help.. Just keep flying that wing on the beach. It will help a ton with generating the control for the future. It takes time and repetition.
Thanks! This is a breath of fresh air after all those French foil videos out there 😁😁😁😁
Something in the works you will love friend! Keep an eye out for Theo instagram.com/theo_demanez/?hl=en and Gwen. :)
I'm so pumped, I made one of Damien's Wingfoiling videos!!! As the "WHAT NOT TO DO GUY"! 3:10 mark. I've since learned to reduce wing power once up and foiling as you said. Early on I would keep trying to add power once up on the foil, or not lift my back hand a little...Great video! This is all so helpful!

@@SolePilatesNYLocustValleyNY Great to hear it is helping friend......
Me encanta los videos de este hombre ,me parece una persona que transmite muy buenas sensaciones y entiendo perfectamente lo que dice a pesar de mi Inglés (soy Español) . Good Job and really Cool videos, Cheers from Málaga ( south of Spain).
very helpful,thank you so much. greetings from Mallorca!!
Thank you Alex!
I watched this video yesteday and took the tips straight to the water. Guess what? I got foiling with incredible ease after hours of thrashing around. Thanks chaps!
Great to hear buddy these notes mean the world to us! Thank you and enjoy your weekend...
Excellent motivational video. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much!
Great video!! Thanks a lot 😎
Thank you!
Wonderful video! Thank you!
Thank you!
Great tips thanks
Thank you Bill!
lots of really helpful tips to concertrate when on the water.I have no water experience with wind sport. Have nailed the going up wind and down wind. Next step is to get on foil. Lets hope for some good wind.
Great to hear friend you got this!
thanks for the work , helpfull !!
Thank you friend.... We appreciate you!
Great tips
Thank you!
I agree - these videos have the best collection of Tips and Tricks to solve issues when learning. Also - showing wipeouts, crashes and other situations that toss the rider are very helpful. Showing the trials and tribulations of learning help enormously - watching an expert fly and gybe is cool but not all that helpful for learning.
Thank you friend we appreciate you!
hello damien
i am very glad about your instructions to wing foiling.
me, as a veteran windsurf teacher i always remind my pupils of the importance of the position of the front arm. as i suppose the dinamic is very similar in both sail structures. so my suggestion is to keep your front arm as streched as possible, thinking more in pushing the front hand away from you!
i hope i could give all learners a nice tip..
aloha
rodi
Thank you for your insight! Appreciate it......
The best video about wing foiling and I haven ´t seen others.lol. Don´t need...Coz i recognize honest in it.
That is very kind of you thank you! We appreciate you.
Very helpful, great!
Thank you! Glad we could help...
Great video ! your level of detail is excellent , clearly a great instructor. Ive come from windsurfing and have just got to a stage now where im foiling in and out ok most the time. I can stay up wind and get back to my launch spot but cant go ups wind like others at crazy angles , any tips on on how i could do this , wing / body position etc?
Cheers
Hips in, open your body up, and, most important, look where you want to go. Just like windsurfing. 👍
Thank you for the kind words....We are trying... Video coming soon... :)
BEST VIDEOS!!!! THANK YOU!
Thank you Sarah we appreciate you!
Cheers for the upload.
I’ve gone out about 10 times and have just started being able to stand up and balance. I’m a bigger guy so the board doesn’t get moving like some of my mates. I went out in weak conditions a few times and that was really tricky.
I’m just getting to the stage where I try to get up on foil but then I pump and lose balance.
I’ll try your tips and keep at it.
I’ve prone foiled for 3 years so I hope that helps once I’m up.
We know it's not an easy process, but you are doing it, keep it up, you will get it no doubt, especially with your prone foiling experience! Here are a couple videos that could help you in your process: th-cam.com/video/cDcvNQZxkh0/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/ZSJujYM19Us/w-d-xo.html
Let us know how it goes!
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam cheers for the links. There’s some great places to wing and foil here in Aoshima Japan and a handful of expat Aussies, Kiwis and of course Japanese mates to share the experience with.
Check out where we live and foil in this video, it’s sweet! th-cam.com/video/UI_nBYq-Fzw/w-d-xo.html
@@mungbean74 This is so awesome full 360 view water all around, what a place wow!
Good advise that I hadn’t seen elsewhere, but FYI it’s noticeable when you interrupt her and distracting. Thanks for the tips about shorts bursts of wing pumping with weight forward albeit with inweighting pops. I’m just starting to move beyond airplane takeoffs and that’s helpful.
Michael, I know I feel horrible for interrupting her! She is an angel and is killing it... Enjoy the ride friend....
great teacher, thanks )
Thank you for the kind words!
Getting better with each time out...i'm keeping too much wind in the wing and rounding into the wind....I also feel i'm keeping too much heel/windward pressure to counteract the pressure on the wing, but when i start foiling, i feel i am too much on the windward rail and try to move my feet to the center of the board which does not have a good ending!! loving it all and thanks for the videos and podcasts! keep 'em coming...
Matt, try a toe heal toe heal movement. Toe heal - toe heal to move or adjust helps with not completely taking the weight off the board as you know that leads to falling. Little shimmy movement. Should help.
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam thank you Damien!! Appreciate all the support. Loving this community and sport..sooooo Stoked!
It’s the dog go at 5:30 for me🐕
Super advise 🤙
Thank you for the kind words!
Really great videos that i keep coming back to over and over again. So informative and insparatioal. I'm getting up on foil and then to stop the climb i let some of the power out but watching videos of others they don't seem. Are they moving there body weight forward and back to adjust pressure on the wing and hence stay level?
Thank you friend! I believe the motion you speak about body weight forward and back helps as well as letting power out in the wing as well. Both work. It's more of a hip movement, forward and or back. Hope it helps!
Thank you! Awesome lesson & and site! I live in Hood River, Or on the Columbia River Gorge..Mecca for all the wind sports! Had my first day on the wing yesterday and this helped a ton!👊🏼
Linda! Glad we could help! Thanks for the support!
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam OH wow..that's great you follow Jackson and the Sicko's! Ha! He's having a great summer making that webisode! You probably know he was the main filmer for Jamie O'Brien for a few years..loved that, but wanted to do his own thing..he'll be back in Hawaii after summer. I'm hoping to foil/wing with him here soon..once I finally get it! Your channel is really great..I'm telling all my friends to watch it..helps a ton! I'm learning on too small of a wing board. It's a slingshot prototype from a friend, but it's just too squirly for me..it's 108 liters. I'm 133 lbs 5'7.5. To start out, should I be on a bigger liter board? Went out yesterday into the main part of the river since I could stand up pretty well in the hook where it's smoother water..but oh boy..I was wheeling on my knees even the entire time..I'm regressing back to the hook! ha!
@@lindalebsack55 Thanks for the kind words always! We really appreciate you. In theory the 108L board should be plenty volume for you but it may be vary Narrow, making it tippy? Wider will be more stable for sure. See if you can find the least choppy water areas as possible. That will also help! Honestly the sport takes time, you will get there. Thanks for all your love you are sharing with everyone about our channel.
@@lindalebsack55 We can't thank you more for sharing our channel with your friends, we truly appreciate it and we appreciate you! As to your question, you should be fine with 108L with your size, but your board may be very narrow, a wider board will give you more stability. Always look for the flattest water that you can learn on, it will really help. This sport is not that easy but if you keep at it, you'll be there in no time! Hope you are able to rip with him soon in Hawaii!
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam Thanks for the great info! I think it is the narrowness...I have a few boards to try..I'll keep at it..looks way too fun once you get there! I was a windsurfer for years and that was NO easy task learning..this seems much easier..except the foil part..but it'll come! Thanks guys!
Hi I love your videos. One thing I am keen to know though is how to turn and come back again as I just keep going in one direction 😁
This should help! th-cam.com/video/FipRzbQ_i0Y/w-d-xo.html. Also th-cam.com/video/3YcIXtoZoEk/w-d-xo.html
Parfaitement adapté à mon cas actuel !
Content qu'on puisse aider! :)
Thank you! Super usefull Information :-)
Thank you our pleasure Dave!
In some other videos I have seen people pump the board to get it up on the foil versus pumping the wing and it works very well. It doesn't take much pumping of the board down into the water to get the board up on the foil, and then you are moving in a controlled manner. The pumping of the wing itself tends to cause folks to be overpowered and put the wing in a bad position and then they fall into the water. Just a friendly tip for you all.
Thank you Michael for sharing your info to others! Very kind of you!
Hi Damien, great videos and very helpful. Thanks for your efforts. Just had my third wing foil session and already came nicely up on foil. However have been struggeling with a loooot of nose dives. So I am up on foil, picking up speed, heading upwind (maybe too much) and the board nose suddenly dives down and makes me to make a superman forward. What can be the reason for that happening?
Possibly your foil is breaching the surface, and loosing all its lift. If that’s the case, just ride it lower.
Just started watching videos to learn to wing foil and yours are by far our fav. We are long time windsurfers, never kited. Do you think it is better to get the feel of the foil on a windsurfer since we already know windsurfing so well, and then progress to wing handling? Or just go straight to the wing? Also, I subscribed to your channel, but where are the links for all the other videos. They aren't showing up in my youtube list when I search your name. Thanks!!
Linda, I would go right for the wing and throw yourself right into it.. You guys will pick it up fast with your windsurfing background. As for the TH-cam videos.... You should be able to see them all here: th-cam.com/channels/Fjxi3RutMPomt4HALGYrnA.html
As with climbing the ladies approach technique different to blokes. Great contribution from Kelly!
She rocks!
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam you both work well together bro, bringing different qualities to the table. A winning team! Keep up the good work mate. 🤙
@@shen7256 Thank you friend! We appreciate you!
Awesome - thank you! Just starting - session one yesterday - question: mast position and foot position- where am I putting The mast as a beginner? Forward or back? I have a Naish 110l board and a slingshot 99 foil
This should help friend... th-cam.com/video/NXaJJqqaGCY/w-d-xo.html
Nice tutorial
Thank you so much!
👊💪 nicely said. 🤙
Trying! Have a wonderful day!
Good stuff, I'm getting one soon. It looks like so much fun!. Thanks! I make videos too and noticed your audio in the wind is super good. You don't even have a lavaliere mic. How did you guys get such good audio?
That is a Gwen question he is a rock star when it comes to videos! I just ramble... :)
Hi, thank you very much for your videos. I appreciate the tips a lot.
I noticed that she placed the front feet on the side of the board. Is it a tip that help to stabilized during the first sessions, or should the feet be center (7:10) ?
I have some difficulty to position the wing so I can place the board upwing.
Awesome video series, thanks! I'm just down here in Palm beach and was wondering if you could let me know the best locations to start lean to Wing Foil around where you are in Jupiter? I'm still not too familiar with Florida, I'm an import from Australia...
I would reach out to Jupiter Kiteboarding! They can share the locations around Jupiter with you and help get your feet wet my friend....
Great videos. Thanks. A few questions on tuning the rig... inflation and foil position. My wing recommends 6-8 psi. Should I use 6 for lighter air and 8 for heavier air? Vice-versa? Does it matter? In my early efforts, I found my board always turning downwind (not yet foiling). I adjusted the foil strut as far forward as it would go and this helped (still not foiling, but able to work upwind). I'm sure it shouldn't stay there as I get better at handling the board and start foiling. What affects the fore-aft placement of the foil strut? When should it be forward of the center of the strut box? Aft of center? I have a very large foil (2450) because I'm 200+ in a light wind venue. What will the signs be that I should use a smaller foil?
Clay, As for PSI I would go with 8psi all the time. Its good to have that wing firm all the time. As for your foil placement all foils are different so its hard to say. From the sound of it you need to keep driving your back foot when you are going one way or another. That helps turn the board sideways to the wind helping you go into the wind, think of tacking your board and not getting pulled. Most get pulled downwind and you are looking to tach or edge slightly into the wind with just enough power to go and when a puff hits you let off the power in your wing. This is more of a skill thing and just takes time flying your wing over and over. It will come stay at it... just takes repetition.....
Great video series. I am curious about how much time Kelly had in the water between the 1st video and the 2nd? was this just one session or many? Also, does she have previous kiting or foil kiting experience? Thanks!
Brandon, not sure on how many sessions she had in between a few for sure, but took her about a month and and half or two to get rocking from my recollection. She had zero water experience! ZERO... Grew up in Idaho... :) Hope that helps friend....
Great videos! How many hours would take to learn to somebody with no experience any kind of board? (wingsurf, kite, wake, etc).
Everyone is different but worth a shot! You only live once..... Just takes giving it a go!
BOOM!
Tnx
Great video thanks!! I am 5.5 and 160p pound what liters board should I get.. ty
Friend, well I would suggest a lesson to maybe get a taste of the equipment but 100L board should float you well for learning. wingfoilprocenter.com/collections/frontpage/products/code-wing-board?variant=45088422035760
Nobody seems to talk about seaweed, is that a problem when you're foiling? or you should be out far enough that it's not as much of a problem anyway?
The motion you're describing at 09:07 is an Ollie in skateboarding.
Yes very similar.....
thanks for the awesome video. My problem is that when I come up to foil, the board leens toe or heel side really quickly, is it because I'm not standing straight enough?
Hard to say without seeing it, but my guess would be that you are going downwind once you get up on foil, and the board becomes unstable side to side because you have no pressure in the wing. Check out this video of the most common beginner mistakes: th-cam.com/video/EuCoPsuEwZE/w-d-xo.html
Hope this helps!
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam thanks allot!
I’d separate the skills involving the hand held wing from the hydrofoil. You need to put in the hours on a SUP or windsurf board with plenty of volume and width first and learn how to control the hand held wing. Then graduate to a foilboard with about 100 - 135 liters of volume. Think of riding a foilboard like flying a plane. Pitch, roll and yaw make the footwork very tricky - while also controlling the wing.
Thank youShawn for sharing your thoughts it helps everyone..... We appreciate you....
What the hell are you talking about? You are definitely not talking to beginners.......
Hi. I am a kite surfer for over 10 years now. I want to try wing foiling. What size foil and wing should I get? Winds here in North Queensland are averaging 15-22knots. I weigh around 84k (male)
Thanks Damo- do you think the lift 250HA is good for winging? Thinking about giving it a try
Its a great wing for winging really. It also can handle you progression as you get better, it will still perform.... Some bigger 2000 + wings can max out and are targeted to all beginner. The LIFT 250HA is great.....
@@DamienLeroyTH-cam Thanks! Keep up the great videos!
@@danielhammack6511 Thank you!
This video is realy helpful but I have one question, how often beginners get injured, because I have to admit that I'm a bit scared of foil. Thank you in advance for your answer.🏄♂️
Michael, I don't see a ton injured bad injuries honestly... I see knees and feet a little raw from falling and climbing back up over and over.... I think if you take it slow wear a helmet and impact vest you should have no issues.....
What a good audio with all that wind....
