Starting to get speed and power but can't stop catapulting!? then this is the video for you. Filmed on a high wind day in Keros I'll go through so key tactics and techniques that'll keep you at speed and control and stop you going out the front door!
As usual the Ride-Along session is brought through a combination of live on-board cameras and microphones, as well as some pre-recorded demos to add some clarification.

Filmed in Keros, Greece; but my usual spot is Vassiliki, Greece- join me here for a clinic!
Kit used... a mix of Point-7 sails, mainly the Spy, ACX and F1e.
Boards vary too, Starboard tends to be my "go-to" for kit, but also RRD a lot too.
Audio recorded on InstaMic
Filmed on a mix of Insta360 OneR & GoPro Max
Mixture of camera mounts including Fly Mount and Sail Video System
Special thanks to Point 7 sails, Starboard Windsurf & Sungod.

These videos are really awesome - thank you!
Man, this was helpful!! Finally I understand what ‘bearing away’ means. Thanks so much!
Bro this channel is so underrated, you should have at least 100k subs, great content and great explanations all around.. Im a beginner but hopefully next summer i will test those things you are recording and try to become better. Much love from Viganj, Croatia, the greatest surfing spot in Croatia, you should deff come visit 😁👍
How nice to have you as a coach. Thanks so much.
this was exactly what i needed to see! i nailed the foot straps and blasting control last month - thanks to your upwind advice btw. now, this is the perfect top up video for dealing with catapulting. thank you so much Cookie, please keep them coming!
Really interesting video + explanations, thank you for sharing
Thanks cookie for this excellent description it has answered two of my main faults, fantastic
I didn't need this video at all, but still I watched it! Great explanation from a great rider. Subbed :D
Great video as usual. Its great to learn new stuff but its also great to get affirmation that you as doing things correctly
so great - thanks very much. armed with these tips went out on Garda yesterday first time sailing in 15 years post knee surgeries, children etc. before that stuck at intermediate. now overweight, over-powered forgot how amazing terrifying windsurfing can be. loved it and f***ing hammered it. lot of swearing and laughing - barely move today. very big smile. Ciao.
great videos. Thanks for your efforts
Really good videos really well explained in details and really making a difference! Probably the best I have found on CZcams...👌

Man, at first I thought having if filmed on the water would make it awful, but you absolutely nailed it. Great piece of advice and camera angles help to figure things out much quicker.
Great video Cookie. Very good explanation about heading upwind to gain more control. I like the part about bending that front arm briefly to gain control/composure, also great advice about straightening the front arm and driving through that extended leg. Windsurfed at the weekend and was planing a lot earlier and for a lot longer, in marginal conditions, than the other guys, but looking at their stance they were bending the front arm and a very upright posture, wanting the wind to do the work! Could have spent all afternoon coaching :-) Keep them coming
Your videos are exceptional! Seeing it both visually while you're doing it and getting a good explanation is priceless! Whichever subject you touch i get a takeaway, keep them coming! 🤙🤙🤙
Solid gold!
Great format! The problem with heading upwind to avoid being overpowered is that you will hit massive chop, which in gnarly conditions is just as bad as being overpowered.
These tips were super handy yesterday. Was blowing 25knts with 35knt bullets. Was riding 5.5 on 110litre freeride. Only got thrown out the door once. Still think my straps might be two large as was getting hooked up in the harness lines in final stage of gybe on sail flip.
you make it look so easy
