1)
Unhook, move the back foot behind (or just in front of) the back footstrap. Make sure the front foot is very loose in the front strap. Center your body over the board. Relax and bend your knees but keep your upper torso upright and over the board.
2)
Move your back hand on the boom and head into a small piece of chop if possible. Push down with the back foot to jump the board out of the water while keeping your weight centered by hanging down on the boom with your forward arm. Sheet out with the sail so there is no power but keep the mast vertical. Focus on getting up with your body so you are over the board and not leaning back like a jump jibe. The energy is UP.
3)
Pull the clew hand up toward the sky. This forces the board underneath you, keeps the mast vertical, and causes a better pivot around the mast. Also, aggressively pull the front foot toward your chest.
4)
Guide the board around the mast by using the foot in the front foot strap. The board should rotate around and flat rather than up and over. Keep your body weight forward over the board. Place the back foot on the deck in front of the mast as the board swings around.
5)
Try to land with the nose hitting the water and the mast vertical. Your front foot will naturally come out of the strap as the tail swings around.
6)
Land the board with your body vertical and over the center of board, solid on both your feet. The board will slide like a winter sled on a snow covered hill in northern Minnesota.
7)
Push the new front foot so it is extended straight and pointing toward the tail of the board. Begin to transfer your weight to the front foot so the board levels out and increases the distance of your slide.
8)
Keep sliding the board by bearing off wind, the longer the better. Maintain your body weight over the mast foot. You can sheet in a tad to keep the board sliding.
9)
Now shift your weight more toward the tail of the board so you can complete the directional transition by letting go of the back hand and grabbing the mast below the boom.
10)
Grab the other side of the boom with the upper hand and open your shoulders to the new board direction.
11)
Pull the mast to your body, step back on the board, and reposition your hands. You're done and skipper of your boat.
