It has been a while since my last post.... lots of wind and lots of water time in Maui! I have been teaching a lot of jibing tricks lately and wanted to share one of the key elements that a lot of jibers are missing out on! It has to do with the flip of the sail and when done correctly it makes things FLOW so much better! When you can plane out of your jibe just as fast as you went into it, your mission is accomplished.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, hopefully this video is worth a million words..... Hope you all learn from it and can pass it on to your friends-
Happy Summer!
