Downwind 360

Let's foil a 360 degree circle to leeward

Once you've mastered the race jibe and the backwind tack, the path to the downwind 360 is not far away. In short, the leeward-foiled 360 is a combination of these two transitions.

After the 180 degree turn of the race jibe, simply maintain the turn and steer - possibly assisted by pumping with the foil - directly into the backwind jibe. That's it.

In this video, Stefan Spiessberger demonstrates the downwind 360. Also take a look at the instructions for the two individual riding techniques mentioned above.
