How To – Ponch

This video how to comes from Greek pro Stam Promponas, who shows us how to Ponch.

Start with speed

  1. Carve down wind aggressively and look for good chop.
  2. Just before hitting the chop bring the sail close to your front hip.
  3. Hit the chop and try to rotate over the sail.

The key to the Ponch is to put the sail in the right position before the jump. It can be broken down into two steps, 1, put the sail to the front hip, 2, hit the chop.

Get out there and have fun!
