Some on this forum think that if kite foiling isn’t dead it’s stagnating. We beg to differ. There are definitely new tricks possible on the T1 monofoil like this epic above the water reverse slide on the wing. Yes the foil rides on top of the water backwards. Next level riding courtesy of Willy a hardcore T1 rider in Bavaria Germany.
Check it out!

Re: New foiling trick?
Awesome, I love that slide, but why are such good videos shared on Instagram - the WORST possible media platform 
Unfortunately it catches on, not my cup of tea because the story is often lost, and the narrow and tall format is useless on computers IMO, doesnt even look good on mobiles
Yes I am an old geezer I know so just rant all you want, but some platforms are simply DAFT and superficial
Sorry, off topic - lovely slide

Re: New foiling trick?
ah, didn't see the part where you mentioned it.
I saw someone doing a slide on the foil before...not sure if it was reverse though. Maybe someone knows more.

Re: New foiling trick?
Glad to see more people doing this. Ryan Parsons has been doing this trick with a regular foil for a while
There's a really awesome one of him hitting the lip of a wave and sliding like this on a foil too

Re: New foiling trick?
Ryan Parsons is doing the rhino slide here as well. This is rhino to front roll I guess
