Description

You can ride a switch stance flag jibe by foiling in switch stance on the board and flag out the wind bei grabbing the front tube handle with your rear hand.

This allows you to initiate the jibe with a turn to leeward. Pumping with the foil keeps the board flying.

As the power in the wing decreases on the downwind course, it must be lifted upwards. The rear hand grips again and aligns the wing in the new direction.

Here you can watch examples of how to ride this move:
