    To simplify and get everyone involved, the iQFOiL class, in collaboration with Starboard and World Sailing, has created a complete video guide to iQFOiL, giving insights into the equipment set-up, the formats and demonstrating exactly how easy it is to learn windsurfing, foiling and racing. With the technical beginner's education based on the RYA's windsurfing teaching models, the iQFOiL video guide is here to make learning windsurfing and foiling more accessible than ever before.
    Minimising costs for parents, clubs and federations and offering a simple, streamlined pathway for kids while growing participation at all levels of the sport is one of the mission statements of the new iQFOiL class. That's also why the Junior and Youth equipment was designed for kids to learn their first steps on the same board that they will later take their first flights on and even keep racing till they are U19’s. The iQFOiL Youth gear has been selected for the next 4 years for the World Sailing Youth World Championships.

    Thank you! You reminded me my first attempts to control windsurfer 40 years ago. One note for people, looking this. At the moment 2:06, when the girl tries to klimb on the board from water, it is necessary to set the board and yourself so, that wind should blow to your back perpendicular to the board. Otherwise, novice would not have a success, but could be even harmed by mast. In the film you see right position according to wind direction, but author forgot to note that.

    These videos are amazing. I am 44 years old right now. When I was 18 years old, I was very lucky and was using some body else's mistral board and sail rig in Istanbul. I learned some while practicing in that young age by myself. For the first time, I bought my first free ride board and sail in Saint Petesburg in Florida in this year. I was so happy when I began to plane. These are amazing straightforward fundamental instructions. Thank you for sharing.

    Good beginner instruction for getting the basics of windsurfing. Thank you. The young boy at the end seemed to be really flying along. A great source of inspiration to improve!

    What's tacking? What's gybing? It would help to know what these are, it's not exactly self-evident (or have I missed something?).

    • @coltoncycotte8681
      @coltoncycotte8681 Před rokem +3

      Tacking is turning into the wind, and gybing is turning away from the wind. Both cause the sail to switch sides.

      I know I hate "sailing terms". Even as an advanced windsurfer, I hated working a sailboat. On a boat you have to always "think" and choreograph a few actions. On a windsurfing boarding you can just rely on feel, balance and instincts. You move and correct without thinking a, b, c...etc.
      Here's an easy way to remember:
      a.) Tacking = Tilt the sail to the back of the board. What happens? You will turn to your "left" if you stand on the board "normal". Normal meaning left foot forwards.
      b.) Gybing = Tilt the sail forwards to the front of the board. What happens? You will turn to your "right".
      Now, Tacking is easier to maneuver for balance, but you will find yourself quickly losing speed and in "dead wind". Beginners don't know to "hold" and sail past this point in the turn.
      However, beginners should also learn how to Gybe. Awkward at first, but this allows you to go down wind and continue to ride. You will instinctively know when to stop turning and just go straight down wind. Enjoy...all

    Hi. I have bought iqfoil set for my daughter, but our set does not have fins and it does not have center fin box. Is the board from the videos modified iqfoil board?

    • @StarboardWindsurfing
      @StarboardWindsurfing  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Andrey, yes the iQFOIL85 is available as SURFACE2AIR model, which comes with centre fin option, or also without, so that the board is lighter for higher performance racing. Both models are class legal. hope this answers your question. bests

    Great video. Random question, does it make sense to carry a paddle from a SUP in case the wind drops to zero?

    • @OnanTheMan
      @OnanTheMan Před rokem

      It’s probably going to get in the way. You can always paddle back like a surfboard if you get in trouble
