... are you enquiring about the Carve 2.0 or a different model?

2.0 Glide 750 for kite foiling, thx
... ah cool as, unfortunately I haven't tried the glide 2.0 yet but I did try and loved the Carve 2.0 so got it. It's an improvement over the previous version for sure so I hope they did their magic on the Glide 2.0 too.
Cheers,

Well after a long long time I had a go using the Duotone 2.0 Glide 750 front foil wing.
It was pretty good and made doing foot switch and jybing achievable. I started off like a beginner for jybing however, started to nail them again and foot switch.
It was a very exhausting session and way more complex than my windwing sessions.
Truth is I just need a few more session to get fully dialed in again. 
Just for the sake of making conversation, it's pretty dead around here..
I can't see the point of switching feet for kite foil. I made myself work on it years ago but it's fallen by the wayside, I'm equally at home toeside or heelside. What does switching bring to the party aside from being another move that you can tick off? Genuine question, Maybe speed runs only work in one direction in your local spot? Or getting straight out through waves works better on one side?
The hardest thing for me so far has been toeside tacks.. just starting to get those more consistent yesterday. Tacks both ways are a funny thing, you feel like you can't possibly get around that way.. until the last second when the door opens and you can go. Heelside tacks and 360s are easy and routine now, but toeside is still 50 - 50 at best. Still just learning that feeling when the door opens and it's the exact time to go around.
With toeside tacks I think it's harder because if you're body's not leaning into it and the exact moment the door opens, you can't go. And the kite is always trying to pull your body away, trying to get you to lean the wrong way. Whereas with heelside tacks you're leaning into it all the time.
The other thing I've had zero luck with is trying to catch the foil board on the way up into a jump like Fred Hope does. I just can't seem to get my hand down far enough while simultaneously being launched upwards.. that one's in the too hard basket for now. I was thinking of experimenting getting one of those dog ball throwers and screwing it to my front foot strap hole, to have an easy handle. Should be flexi enough not to smash my nads too badly.
