If you want to ride longer, connect swells effortlessly, and truly master wave foiling, you must first master the strategy. This tutorial is your deep dive into the theory behind the glide, revealing the critical secrets of choosing the right gear, reading complex wave sets, and harnessing the Hidden Energy Zone for maximum speed. Stop guessing and start gliding!
About wave theory: Remember waves have linear momentum as well as orbital angular momentum. In this video I have a simplified how I think about it. In the face the forward motion is from the gravity, you fall down the wave. I will post a more detailed version of this when I have read all about it.

Beautiful run down. Thanks for putting this together!!
subscribed, thx for G8 vid!
I have to say, this was super clear and well discussed for someone considering wave riding
Wow, so much I didn't know!
Thanks for the video! Can wait for more!
