I suppose as ex-windsurfers we're all a bit gybe focused. Still trying to get them sorted but haven't seen too many tacks out there? Are they harder than a foiling gybe for someone starting from scratch without a million slapper gybes under their belt?

Check out Balz Muller at about 45 seconds.

Non foiling tacks are as easy as planing jibes.
Full foil racks and jibes take a bit longer and more skills than " intermediate".

I would so love to be able to do a foiling duck tack. Don't have any idea where to start though
