Josh Ku's Downwind Tutorial - No SUP Experience Required

Unifoil

From zero SUP background: gear, flat water paddle up, and first downwinds in a bay. Finesse small pumps rather than stomping, and when the board leaves the water, lunge forward and take three more strokes. Recommends starting on a big foil. The creator rides for the brand he mentions.

Key points

• Board 7–8 ft with plenty of volume (77 kg → 110 L; 90 kg → 120–130 L)
• Paddle about your height or an inch taller; adjustable is best. Use a waist leash
• Learn the J-stroke to go straight
• Big stomps stall the foil — finesse small pumps
• At lift-off, lunge forward and take three more strokes instead of leaning back
• Have a friend film you to see your feet vs the mast — and find a buddy to learn with

Creator says it's for People with zero SUP background who want to get into downwind
