Hello guys,
can someone explain me: how do i correctly go upwind on a strapless waveboard (lets assume is flat or little choppy water).?
I've heard an read many different things like:
-try to stand straight so that your board is all the way down on the water
-try to move your back foot to the middle of the board, dont edge too hard, just bend the knees
-try to move your back foot to the middle of the board, put your heels on the edge of the board and dont forget to put pressure on your heels (like on a twintip)
-another guy told me to rotate my back leg and my knee, like the classical surfer guys do, to gain up wind ability by a moment created by my back leg in combination with my larger fins (crazy stuff!!)
i need some clarification on this topic to finally have go-to-way that i can try to improve. today i did a little bit of everything mentioned above, but it didnt work well :E
Thanks!
