Surfside, all I can say is that when I'm vaccinated, expect me. 😂🤣

I've never been so eager to hit IAH in my life.

Also, I'm working on toe side riding. I rewatched that shot of you going out over and over. Nice form.

SC, look forward to your visit! Sadly, I was not sailing this day. We had to prepare the beach house for the possibility of the storm hitting us and depart before a mandatory evacuation was called. I never want to sit in evacuation traffic for 18 hours again!

So a backwinded 360, and what I labeled the Dwight 360, and now what I just saw in this video. I’ll call a drag behind 360. Actually looks even easier than the Dwight 360 and way easier than the backwinded 360., but who knows.  Haven’t tried it yet, but next on the list. Way more interested in this stuff than the babbling on about gear :P

It’s just a name I gave to Dwight’s version of 360. It’s a jibe from heelside where instead of riding out toeside at the 180 deg mark as you would in a common jibe, you continue right into a tack to complete the 360. The wing is overhead the whole time and requires some extra hand switching done quickly enough to keep up with the turn and not come off foil.  A backwinded 360 involves no hand switching at all but I guess some people find it more difficult. Wing position, balance and timing can be tricky on the backwinded version.

This wing release and drag behind you version in this latest vid looks pretty cool and easy for us old spastic types, but the guy in video wasn’t keeping up quite enough speed to finish on foil. Who knows, maybe it’s harder than I think. I’ve done “Dwight” 360’s and backwinded 360’s (attached vid), but not this drag behind version. Just different variations of the same turn. I wouldn’t even have known it’s possible without accidentally having the vid show up on my feed!

That looks really sweet.  He sets it down back there and then carves around it.  I am trying that.  Think of that on a swell.

He just needs more of a corkscrew trajectory to keep it up on foil at the end. (ObxDave terms; corkscrew upwind turn, Dwight 360, Drag behind 360 :o)

This one is so cool to me because it has that really relaxed look.  I bet it can be done at string's end as well and snapped back up for high beauty points.  Floss 360.
