HOW TO : STAND UP ON THE BOARD !!!

Because our role has been, and always will be, to accompany you throughout your progress, we have created a How To section for everything related to the practice of the Wing. From the most basic to the most radical moves, you will find everything you need to understand and improve your technique. Stand up on the Board: First, you’re going to get the front foot flat, drop a knee, and stabilize yourself. Keep your course crosswind. Stand up with your front foot flat, like a front lunge in fitness.   If your Board has the right volume, the balance is fairly simple. In any case, a very light pressure on the back hand in the Wing will give you enough wind support to find your balance. Remember to avoid waves and chop at the beginning.   Stand Upright: You’re going to put your front hand on the full power handle, then your back hand on the first back handle, before the full power handle. We’re taking it slow and the priority is to stay on course. Just remember to keep the crosswind by putting your Wing behind you if you need to luff up. The simple placement of your hands is enough to put traction and stabilize you.   Do not let the Wing get caught up in the water: The rule is simple: if the Wing gets stuck in the water, you must let go and start all over again. Otherwise, you risk bending it and it could explode. It will cost you a Wing… The line joining your hands must always be at a minimum angle of 45° to the horizontal so that it does not get stuck in the water. As soon as you lower your front hand, the wing will get caught up in the water and you will have to start all over again. So never keep your front hand low and always lower your back hand. This is the secret of the Wing, the only thing you really need to understand.   Key points:

  • Good orientation of the Wing.
  • Don’t let yourself drift too long (react quickly).
  • Do not force: use the wind.
  • Place your knees and your belongings next to the straps.
  • Use the Wing to take its course and keep it.
  • Let go of the Wing if it gets caught in the water.
