  • Sam is trying to teach me how to wingfoil! This is my first real try with my new wing, and I tried it out with my paddle board. I still have a long way to become a master, but this was my first try! Hopefully I will get to practice more this summer! Sorry for the wind noise :)

    You did great Ann-Elin!! You had some major gusts to contend with. You have a good body for doing this. You will get it and be passing Sam in no time! Practice makes perfect! thanks for sharing!

    Great effort .. not an easy skill.. your determination, sense of balance and athletic body awareness guarantees success ..🙋🏼‍♂️🙋‍♀️👍🇨🇦

    Så flink du er! Great start on something new & cool. I'm seeing more and more wingfoilers and WASZPs where I sail.

    That looks difficult...trying to keep your balance while holding the wing...bravo for your effort. I couldn't do it. Thanks for sharing.

    A fantastic first effort for sure! You'll have it in no time if you practice through the summer!

    TOO MUCH FUN!!
    No different than learning to ride a bicycle.
    Practice, practice and soon enough you'll be zipping around the bay. 👍

    Great video!! You have an adventurous spirit, which is good because you need one when Sam is around. Keep trying, I bet you’ll be a pro in no time. Sam is awful brave going without a wetsuit.

  • @madal55

    Hugely overpowered! Kudos for trying though, It's a great back stretcher/muscle tester!!

    Lovely video, you seem a natural. Plus having "wind awareness" will make you a better sailor.

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny

      Yes, more fun stuff to do with the wind! 🌬️

  • @stevestuffmusicstudio6770

    Fun stuff! You are adventuresome & strong! I don't think I would like that steep of a learning curve, so I'll just stick with my windsurfing, as I like the mast's rigidity, providing consistency to control wind variances.

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny

      Windsurfing looks super fun as well, maybe I’ll try that some day! But I want to be able to wing foil with Sam when we’re traveling, would be so fun 👏😄

    Great video, Ann-Elin. You both seem to have unlimited amounts of patience and perseverance. Much respect to you and Sam. And I love how you both can make each other laugh.

  • @styntissink7921
    @styntissink7921 Před 22 dny +1

    Cool video but there's a much easier of learning this. It's great to use a board with a big Center fin to get used to steering upwind (a windsurfing Longboard is perfect), I highly recommend trying to borrow a board like this for your first 2-3 sessions before going on a foil. Otherwise a foil board with plenty of volume, about 130L or more is good than once you're experienced you can downsize to your weight in kg+15L (as an approximate rule)

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny

      Thanks for the tip! I will have an eye out for one of those!

  • @mtumix
    @mtumix Před 23 dny +2

    Cool done for the first time. 5 m just a bit too big for this jigh Wind but ok. Very gusty doesnt make it easier. A great sport. I do it by myself in Germany. Cant wait to see you foiling for the first time.

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny +1

      I can’t wait! It looks so fun! Where can you do this in Germany? :)

    • @mtumix
      @mtumix Před 22 dny

      Hi Ann-Elin I have different spots in northern Germany. Favorite with flat water cobditions is " Speicherkoog" near Büsum at the North sea. Then also Heidkate near Kiel and Selenter See near Plön. Hope to meet you and Sam there one day.... I like your both yt channels. Happy wingin ....🏖 Keep on trying... The skills will grow.

  • @fortytwo8388
    @fortytwo8388 Před 23 dny +1

    Maybe you can get better feeling to handle the wing on some flat land with some grass in low wind. On the board try to use your front foot to guide the force from the wing into moving the board forward.

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny

      That’s true! I should probably take it out to a field or something

  • @nearlynormal
    @nearlynormal Před 23 dny

    Yes, it was an enjoyable watch. Every small boat should have blow up board like that. Fun and can be useful. Enjoy your summer. Looking forward to peeks into what life is like where you live.

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny

      There will probably be more summer adventures! 😄👏

    Ann when I was your age they hadn't even invented wind surfing yet much less these things. You did pretty good for your first time out. Where are you is this Sardinia? And you DO know that Sam is a bit daring, right? I crewed on a relatively large steel ketch double-ender years ago but was too afraid of height to ever own a sail of my own. Sam though? He doesn't care I doubt he even bothers with a bosuns chair. Nope, not me (I don't fly for the same reason).

      @@annelinsynnes Ah! Cold there can't believe Sam doesn't sport a wet suit. I dunno about that guy, Ann! Orca can go around skinny dipping of course in a place like that but not humans.

    Too much wind for a beginner and the wind is way too gusty...

    this doesn't look fun to me. if you like it, good for you. those motor foils look sort of fun. just tell sam to get a motor foil sponsor and give up on this wing foil nonsense xD those subnado look awesome. he needs a sponsor from them

    • @annelinsynnes
      @annelinsynnes  Před 22 dny +1

      I saw Sam try one of those in Montpellier, and to be honest it looked fun for 5 minutes 😅 to me the wing looks more fun!
