Easy way to position your wing foil mast on your board with no trial and error

Описание: People often determine placement by how easy or difficult it is to launch onto the foil. But I feel it's better to move your feet on the board to enable you to launch, as needed.

This positioning technique optimizes for balance once you have launched, which I prefer to make a priority.

Why is it good to align your foil with the Center of Gravity (CG) of the board?

This positioning technique creates dynamic balance when up on the foil.

When pumping the foil there is as much weight in front and in back of the foil lift point, making it easier to keep the foil board level for efficiency.

When turning the foil board there is as much weight in front and in back of the foil lift point, which is the center of carving rotation.

Some people may say there is more to foil positioning than these factors, but I think most would agree that this is at least a good place to start!

I personally just simply use this technique and make all other required adjustments with my foot and body positioning.
