Great video. The secret was given in the comment at the end "You can only go as far as you are in shape". There is no magic to pumping. You have to have extremely strong legs and incredible cardio fitness. You wanna pump for 5 minutes? Can you do 5 minute squat hold? Can you sprint for 5 minutes? Can you run a 8 minute mile? Fitness is the biggest secret in the game! You're welcome. 😎🤙

Hey Damien. I really enjoy your tutorials!I’ve been watching this one yesterday night and been out in the morning to check. So good!Especially the lifting of the backfoot. What really changed my ride however was one more thing that made the release of the back foot possible. I changed my cadence/pump frequency which was the key to really keep the pitch control. I speeded up my frequency et voilà. I’m sure it depends on the setup and front wing in particular but I encourage everyone in that stage too play with the frequency of pumping. 🤙🏼

The way you so easily jump onto the board from the waters edge is amazing. Sigh.

Awesome video and demonstration! My problem when I first started was way to much weight on the back leg and not pushing equally with both legs. Once the technique was fixed, like you showed, the length of time I could pump was greatly increased.

It's not fair he can jump up from ground like that, it should be illegal... 😋

What board liter size and length do you recommend for beginner pump foilers? Do you start with a small one like you have here or something larger with more swing weight? Which size board are you using here? TIA

Excellent video this has really helped me with my pumping I focus on my back foot more plus bringing my feet closer together like doing squats

Stop making it look easy bro 😎 ❤

Amazing vid! question: you say the downward movement is basically just a glide. so are your forcing the board + mast downward to accelerate the glide? Or just letting gravity do it's thing...then springing back up to take your weight off the board?

Top great 👍

Hi. Thanks for making this awesome video. As I've been improving at winging I've learned how valuable pumping is in so many situations, which then helps you enjoy more and maximise the magic moments for longer. After seeing this I'm going to now focus more on pumping and see if I can make it better. Have a great day and many thanks! Regards.
