Wingflip Jibe - switch stance

Double wing rotation with the switch stance duck jibe

This trick is more or less an extended switch stance duck jibe.

Instead of just turning the wing in the new riding direction, it is rotated another 360 degrees. By riding away from the wind (dwonwind), the wing is neutral in the air and can be turned relatively easily. This requires a few changes of grip to keep the wing rotating.

In the video you can see that you can also control the wing with one hand. However, the most important thing with this trick - as with all jibes - is to ride the foil as consistently as possible. The handling of the wing should therefore not cause any unrest in the balance on the board (simply practise the double wing turn in light winds on land).
