Flat Water Paddle Up Land Drill — Get On Foil (Downwind Foiling)

Ian David V

A land drill to groove the paddle-up timing: blade in vertical, crouch, use the power, unweight. Works with half a two-piece paddle or a broom handle. The creator did hundreds of reps every night.

Key points

• Blade in vertical → crouch → use the power → unweight
• Crouching loads the board and adds forward drive
• Unweighting makes the board skip and lifts the foil
• You can do it in your lounge or garage

Creator says it's for Anyone struggling with the timing of the paddle stroke and unweighting
