Here is a crazy move. I call it a body
drag 360 jibe. There is potential for seriously cutting your
leg with your fin during this maneuver.
Everything happens very quickly. I don't recommend
trying it. This video is in real time. I start
off on a broad reach body drag, but rather than dragging
behind the board, I sheet in, to start my body clocking
around the nose. I try to keep my body planing, or
above the surface of the water until passing by the nose of
the board. I keep holding on to the booms, with the sail
above the water, and try to make it all the way around to
fill the sail on the same side again. When I can see
again, I am (hopefully) in a backwards
waterstart position with my board pointing back out
again. I don't recommend this maneuver for
anyone. I hope you enjoy the video clip.
