Federico I guess you are Italian I am from Greece . We share the same sea 🌊 So I think it would be a great idea to make a series of videos named “ the Bible of dead onshore windsurfing” Starting with the proper gear , the proper quiver and the showing techniques for onshore wave riding, the easiest and best maneuvers for onshore , how to jump in onshore small shitty waves with gusty conditions Everything about small waves shittty gusty wind etc No one ever had done this before I thin you would be the best for that because you are really good in video tutorial and you know how to sail in these conditions Most of riders or riding days are made in these conditions and you will be very helpful to tutor us Aloha

Great video! In my personal long-lasting journey towards the perfect tack, I'd point out that the change of tack must be done at light-speed. Of course, one can only manage to do that after practicing a lot and perfecting all the movements. By the way, I realised that my tacks on my smaller board have gotten way easier and more consistent since I got my old mono-fin wave board remodeled, by shortening its nose and adding thrusters. It has now more volume in the center and nose in comparison with my modern wave quad...

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Great insights! For sure having more volume on the center and nose of the board help a lot with tacking! And for sure you want to be fast when changing tack, but as you said, you want to do the right movements first and position your feet in the right places!👌

Good work, loving it! - I am getting better at tacking, but it has taken proper effort. My tip: DON'T LOOK AT YOUR FEET!!! (And go hop around quickly, TIME IS NOT YOUR FRIEND... My last video has a bunch of good tacks, and a bunch of not-so-good ones ;)

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Yeah good tips Bartholomeus!👌💯 Thanks for sharing those too! Time is an enemy because it reduces the board speed, which is our best friend! The more speed, the more time we have 🙌

The mire I practice on my big wave board the better I get on my ‘good wind’ board. There’s no shame in practicing on higher volume boards I say 🙏☀️

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

@@windsurf888 That's great, keep going! There's no shame for anything!!! Big boards, small boards or whatever; let's forget these "old days" concepts that praised so much small boards! You need to find the perfect board size FOR YOU and the conditions you ride the most in order to have the most fun and improve as much as you can, that's it, all the rest it's just talking and slogans!🙏😁👊💯

This is incredibly helpful! Congratulations, and thank you so much!!! You addressed a mistake that I knew I was doing, but couldn't quite figure what was wrong: the distance to the mast throughout the entire move. 🤙 If I may suggest, consider doing such an in-depth video on water starts. Again, thanks and kudos!

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Hey Tiberius! Super happy to hear that it was useful! Yes, the distance with the rig is key!!! I will absolutely consider it; I'm actually planning on making way more tutorials on a dedicated platform! Will keep you all posted 😜🤙💯

@ivandimitrov1507 Жыл бұрын

Excellent video, I'll try these tips the next time on the water! In what situation would you prefer to do a heli tack instead of a normal tack?

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Hi Ivan, thank you for your feedback, I'm glad you liked the video 👌 Personally I always tack, I have it so consistent that I don't mind using it even in the lightest winds. I would say that when it's super light, a heli tack might help as you avoid moving your body that much and so risking to lose balance 🤙

@lucapasturini4229 8 ай бұрын

I am studying ... can you also do one for strong wind and choppy water ??

@Waterwind_it Жыл бұрын

Hi Federico. Very useful video. I totally agree with your suggestions about creating space between the rider's body and the mast and staying on top of the board. Tacking is easier in flat water conditions (possibly, between two distant waves), but becomes significantly more difficult in rough/messy conditions, or when waves are close to each other. Do you have any advice on how to handle these conditions as well? A while ago, I heard Thomas Traversa suggest changing sides during the turn when the nose of the board is pointing into a small wave face so that the wave helps support the front of the board.

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Yes absolutely! When I'm out in the sea, I usually start tacking when facing a wave and complete the tack when I'm on top of the wave; this way the movement and the difficulties become "standardised", so your brain will start recognising them. While when I'm tacking at shore, I look for a flat-water part and try to tack there 🤙

@marcoberardo1170 Жыл бұрын

Hi Federico, great video as always. Just a question: why don't you wrap your front foot around the mast base but keep those 10cm? Does it help to create and keep the distance from the mast as you explained?

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Hi Marco, thanks a lot! I keep that little distance simply because when you're doing fast tacks you're moving quick, and sometimes if you aim so close to the mast base you can hit it with your foot and that's not fun 😅 So I personally prefer to let a little distance so I avoid the contact and also leave myself more space, in order not to get stuck on it 👌🤙

Recently, at Coudouliere I shot a video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hLCVnZSTyLbIqps.html) in which F3003 shows a very nice and fast way to tack. He also keeps a good distance between his body and the mast, as you suggested. And I adore the way he exits from the maneuver backwinded, full planing

Great video, thank you! I am still struggling with tacking and jibing with my 70 kgs on my 86 ltr board. I do all the things you describe but still fall in 90% of the time. I am moving so fast around the mast that I am having trouble realizing what I am doing exactly with my feet. maybe I should slow down.. Great tip with leaving a little bit more space between the mast and the front foot. Makes total sense to me. There is this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m7did7qguM6Yd6s.html from pvb were he tacks kind of slower (at min. 2:38 for example) but pushes the board around with the front foot. Do you do these kind of tacks too? thank you. ...i guess it all comes down to more practice.

@FedericoMorisio Жыл бұрын

Yes I do those tack too! If you're doing all right and you have 16 liters more than your weight then there's no need to move that fast. Take your time, slow down, feel every movement and go from there! The goal is to tack and turn, not to do it in 0.1 or 1 seconds :) Try this and let me know! All the best!🤙💯
