Can an average rider get into Downwind foiling? Here is my journey.

Thank you for helping me out: https://buymeacoffee.com/rxxtq9j5fjc As my Insta feed is full of amazing downwind stories, I wanted to do that too. And yes, I thought I could do it in just a few tries. NO! It is more difficult than I thought..! Of course there are short cuts and I would even consider foil drive. But as it is forbidden in Switzerland and I actually like the journey of learning something new, I thought I'd do it the honest way. It is more difficult than I thought but I will keep on going. And the parawing... I think it will be another discipline.
