My foot switches are pathetic, and I feel like I still have too much weight on the back foot (windsurfer). I was watching a video where the instructors said, in the space of 30 secs, if you have too much weight on the back foot you have to 1) move the mast forward in the track, and 2) move the mast back. I then realized I have no good feel at all for how to do this.
Since I don't have footstraps, if I move the mast aren't I just going to adapt to the new position by adapting my feet until they feel comfortable, ie too much back foot pressure just like before? My mast is fairly far back in my 125L board. Mostly light winds and flat water, 6 or 8 m wing on top of GoFoil 2200.
The more I wing the more balanced I feel front foot vs back foot, and I've been narrowing my stance which has helped, but I would like to get over this early in the upcoming season if possible. Comments appreciated.

How do people think about timing the wing transition? I'm getting conflicting inputs between waiting and not waiting, and on the water I see some people really spinning the wing like a pizza dough maker, and other not. Are you actively twisting the wing? Does the wing follow you to the new tack or does it lead and facilitate to the new tack? Sometimes when I manipulate the wing at about 12 o'clock or dead downwind I find myself pushed back and out of the turn.
Thanks, Jrob
