Les meilleurs exercices pour tomber moins souvent en foil

Découvre dans cet article les meilleurs exercices pour améliorer ton équilibre et ta mémoire musculaire pour tomber moins souvent en kite / wing foil, ou pumping!

Que tu fasses du kitefoil, du wingfoil, du surf foil ou du pumping, il y a une chose qui est certaine: tu vas faire un bon paquet de chutes! Eh oui, se déplacer au-dessus, de l’eau, sans un bruit, comme sur un tapis volant, n’est pas aussi facile que ça en a l’air! Avoir des bases en kitesurf ou windsurf va évidemment aider, mais le foil est vraiment un support à part qu’il va falloir…

[transparentgentlemenmarker]

Le foil est une aile positionnée sous un support une coque de bateau ou planche, qui vise à réduire les frottements avec l’eau pour agir sur la vitesse et la stabilité du support grâce à la force de portance. Pour le sport on utilise les termes de Kitefoil, Windfoil, Wingfoil, SUPfoil, Surf-foil et Wakefoil. Une nouveauté pour vous certainement cependant il fut inventé en 1868

L’historique du foil, depuis plus d’un siècle les ingénieurs et architectes navals ont voulu trouver une nouvelle technologie qui permette à un bateau d’augmenter sa vitesse en surélevant la coque au dessus de l’eau. En 1869, Emmanuel Farcot dépose un brevet d’un bateau hérissé de nombreux petits foils le long de la coque afin de diminuer la trainée. A partir de 1894, l’américain William E. Meacham pousse plus loin le concept des foils. Il invente le bateau de 14 pieds détenant le plus vieux record dans ce domaine. En 1960, Thomas Moy adapte trois plans sur un bateau qu’il fera naviguer sur « Grand Surrey Canal », au sud de Londres. En 1976, Eric Tabarly élabore un prototype qui est la genèse du trimaran, après les années 2000, le concept du foil a été créé grâce à l’invention de matériaux plus résistants comme le carbone. De nos jours la notion de foil est très peu connue, mais c’est un concept impressionnant et très  convoité par le monde de la navigation. Une nouvelle génération de bateau a été construit comme « l’hydroptère ». Dernièrement, les foils se sont modernisés dans le but de gagner de plus en plus de vitesse

The history of the foil, for more than a century naval engineers and architects have wanted to find a new technology that allows a boat to increase its speed by raising the hull above the water. In 1869, Emmanuel Farcot filed a patent for a boat bristling with numerous small foils along the hull in order to reduce drag. From 1894, the American William E. Meacham pushed the concept of foils further. He invented the 14-foot boat holding the oldest record in this field. In 1960, Thomas Moy adapted three plans for a boat that he would sail on the "Grand Surrey Canal", south of London. In 1976, Eric Tabarly developed a prototype which was the genesis of the trimaran, after the 2000s, the concept of the foil was created thanks to the invention of more resistant materials such as carbon. Nowadays the concept of foil is very little known, but it is an impressive concept and very coveted by the world of navigation. A new generation of boat was built as the “hydrofoil”. Lately, foils have been modernized in order to gain more and more speed

Addio a Jackson James Rice. Morto il campione 18enne che doveva andare alle Olimpiadi Tragedia nel mondo dello sport dopo che è stata diffusa la notizia della morte prematura del 18enne Jackson James Rice, giovanissimo campione di kitesurf atteso ai giochi olimpici di Parigi. Il ragazzo è purtroppo deceduto a seguito di un drammatico e improvviso incidente. Cosa è successo Secondo quanto riferito dalla stampa estera, Jackson James Rice ha perso la vita lo scorso sabato 15 giugno, mentre stava facendo un'immersione in apnea da una barca a Faleloa, Ha'apai, nelle Tonga. Si teme che il ragazzo possa aver avuto un "blackout" mentre si trovava immerso in acque poco profonde. Dopo non averlo più visto riemergere, il 18enne è stato recuperato senza vita intorno alle 12.15. Il corpo era sotto la barca. Purtroppo non è stato possibile fare nulla per salvargli la vita, i tentativi di rianimazione cardio-polmonare sono risultati inutili. Jackson, figlio di Darren e Nina, entrambi di origini britanniche, era nato negli Stati Uniti e si era poi trasferito con la famiglia a Tonga. È cresciuto ad Haʻapai, dove i suoi genitori gestiscono ancora oggi un albergo turistico. Il ragazzo era un campione di kitesurf e avrebbe dovuto prendere parte alle Olimpiadi 2024, rappresentando Tonga. A parlare del terribile incidente è stato il padre Darren Rice, intervistato dal Matangi Tonga News. In famiglia e fra gli amici era conosciuto come JJ. Il ragazzo era felice di partire per le Olimpiadi e rappresentare Tonga, di cui ormai si sentiva cittadino. Dopo un ottavo posto conquistato all'evento Sail Sydney, Jackson James Rice aveva ottenuto la possibilità di competere alle Olimpiadi. La sorella del giovane, Lily Rice, ha scritto un toccante messaggio dedicato a suo fratello su Facebook. "Ho avuto la fortuna di avere il fratello più straordinario del mondo e mi addolora dire che è morto", ha scritto la ragazza. "Era un kitefoiler straordinario e sarebbe arrivato alle Olimpiadi e ne sarebbe uscito con una grande medaglia scintillante... si è fatto tanti amici fantastici in tutto il mondo", ha aggiunto. Il blackou Stando a quanto riportat dalla National Library of Medicine, un blackout in acque poco profonde consiste nella perdita di coscienza dovuta a ipossia cerebrale. La condizione è spesso causata dall'iperventilazione che si ha prima di un'immersione, che abbassa il livello di anidride carbonica (CO2) e ritarda il bisogno di respirare del subacqueo.
