- Today we learn from the one and only, "the legend" Harry Andrews how to do the duck jibe. One day we showed up at the beach and Harry was spinning his wing like a mad man. We realized he was showing off this new fun trick, the duck jibe.
Harry breaks it down so that the rest of us can join in on the fun.

Love these guys. Great Wingfoilers and cool Dudes! I've been blessed to face plant around them learning this winter. Keep up the great videos!
Ahhhh. Thank you friend....
Can you do a video on wing beach training. Lots of us are patiently waiting for wing gear to arrive due to shipping delays, gear such as boards and foils. While we wait can you suggest training/practice techniques we can do on the beach. Thank you, your team are awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all you do.
Duck Jibe! One of the first "tricks" on a Windsurfer. "Invented" by Richard Whyte. Father of current Cabrinha rider/surfer extraordinaire Moona Whyte. The Circle of Life!
Parking lot practice with a longboard/skateboard helps a lot! (just don't drag the wing against the asphalt).
Thanks for the great info!
Yup - a windsurfing thing from back in the '80's. I always thought it was called a Duck Jibe (Gybe) because you "ducked under" the booms when the board came around. Lotta fun to do - it feels so smooth when everything connects
Right on! Thank you Blake....
Thanks to the two legends for the tips.. all the tips are very helpful. Greets from the freezing Alps . You guys are lucky to ride and play on warm water 🌊🥳🤟🏄♂️
Amen! Thank you!
Love the ending of this video. Being kind always wins. You guys are the best!
Thank you we appreciate you!
Upwind tack next!! It only took me 2 sessions to learn to wing thanks to your videos :)
Soon its coming already done! We have heal side and toe side tacks coming..... yewwwww
Thank you for Duck Jibe tips from Japan.
Thank you!
Harry, you just get better each time we see you on video. Great stuff.
That is why we call him the legend!
great instruction, thanks! Got this on my 3rd attempt!
Well you made our day thank you!
Lovely thought at the end Damo.. thank you.
Thank you Derek!
Great video guys as always 👍
Thank you Jim!
Legend!! 🙌🏽
Last week was amazing, hope you got out!
Sure is!
I did duck jibes with windsurfing simply because it was easier. I don't know why it's called a duck jibe here other than just the direction you spin the wing? But I'm looking forward to finally getting in the water to learn winging in a couple weeks!
Right on looking forward to hearing from you and how epic it is! Have a great week.....
I too was duck giving in the 90s on windsurfers. Still waiting for my Naish 2021 Hover board and foil to arrive in the UK. I have yet to get started, can’t wait.
@@devonmike Nice. I'll be renting equipment at first. Which is going to be pretty expensive since the sport is still new, but I have no idea how I'll take to it or what size foil I'll need. But if I end up loving it I'm thinking of getting a Fanatic Sky Air Premium. Which is a long name for an inflatable foil board. 😅
But I have a friend in the UK who I've been trying to get into it. I have a friend here in the US who I've already convinced and he is going to try it himself in a month or two.
@@devonmike yewww the 90's! So epic!
Nice one guys!
And Thanks 🤘🤙
Thank you!
Good job you guys!
Thank you Eric!
Thanks for this video and keep m coming! Love the good vibes between you two! Contagious it is! This was really instructive and taking this with me next time on the water. Do you have a video or advice on how to best ride switch stance? I am almost nailing my jibes, but when going switch stance I enter a complete alien world (coming from windsurfing, windfoiling). How can I get my brain wired for switch stance riding? Thanks! Cheers!
Video is coming friend.......:)
25+ yr windsurfer, never foiled, going to buy a wing so thank you for all the vids! Basic question, should I try wing w SUP for a while then foil, or try windsurf foil then wing foil? ie what would be easier?
I would say if you have a SUP sure use it in the mean time, but honestly I would dive right in! Being a windsurfer will help with the wing! The foil will come not easy but you will get it..... I would go all in....
Damo- what beach/location is this? I've struggled to find spots down near Miami when I'm down there...
Further north! Jupiter, FL and Stuart, FL.
What I learned from handle or boom grip is that there is no proper way to hold the wing. Both ways are the proper way and it just depends on which trick or turn you want to do (I switch between the grips while riding constantly).
Thank you for your insight!
Question to Leroy and Harry, how often do you kite foil, or have you given it up?
Our beaches in South Devon, UK will be busier this year as we are just getting over Covid restrictions so launching kites may be awkward. Wing foiling seems to be the way to go, no restrictions regarding space
Nice pointers for dreaming of future skills…😀👍
Yewww! Glad we could help!
3:44, 5:34 I think you invented a spectacular trick! You should definitely work on that!
Ahhhh. Right!
The hidden detail seems to be changing the back hand grip from over-arm to under-arm.
Where do ya get the weather...its 12C in Ireland and weeeeeet
Florida!
Can the legend explain why every time I pull this off I end up with the wing leash wrapped around my neck!
It happens to all of us haha! Have you tried putting your leash on the other wrist? Or using a waist leash instead or wrist leash?
@@DamienLeroyCZcams great, I’m doing it right then 😀 will try my leash on the waist belt! Thanks for all the great videos
The legendary Mr Potato Head
The Legend!
A few more videos and you will be windsurfing!
Right! ahhhhhhh
Quack Quack :-)
ahhhhhhhhh!
Can you do a vid on the helitack
We will have to add that to the list! One to learn and two to make a video! Thank you.......
@@DamienLeroyCZcams great thanks can’t find one video on how to do it,but saw a guy doing it here this season where he positions the wing up wind when he tacks and it pushes him around
@@DamienLeroyCZcams I actually think it’s pushing the wing through the wind on a toe side tack,that’s what it looked like
@@michellestirling3943 We will have to look more into it, could it be a tack here n this video just toe side? czcams.com/video/FaxfLs1b_KY/video.html
@@DamienLeroyCZcams what I saw was a toe side tack but instead of having the wing above your head the guy pushed the wing into the wind so he was downwind of his wing and it pushed him around
Why is it called duck jibe?
You got me on that one! Have no clue.... :)
It comes from windsurfing, as Flaka and all the rest. Windsurfers are translating windsurfing freestyle tricks to winging. Duck jibe is when you duck under the clew of a windsurf sail.ie flip the sail trough the back end similarly to what you see here with the wing,
Hey Damien, on your last note there, I’m still being blocked from the lift efoil user group. The guy that runs it must be your biggest fan since he uses your face for the Facebook group so I’m sure if you could just message him then he could unblock me. I think he wouldn’t accept me because I first had a waydoo efoil and am in all their groups. I then researched how to contact admin and called Billy Breeze at work so he could approve my request to join the group and Billy says he doesn’t really know the guy. I joined the group but then the next day I’m blocked so the group doesn’t even show in my search results. Lift says they cannot do anything about it because it’s just some guy so you’re my last hope. Please convince you’re biggest fan to be more like you!
Friend, I do not manage it so not sure I am much help.....Have a wonderful day!
@@DamienLeroyCZcams if that guy uses your face then he’s your representative so you should be able to ask him to play nice or to not use your face so people don’t harass you when he’s mean to people for no reason.
