the main problem for me comes from reading the title of this move: “this goiter is pretty amazing, isn’t it?” so my answer is: no this is not amazing because there is no bottom turn, he is just flying across the spot switch stance clew first, finds a little white water to jump off and make this nice move. now for all the people who think aim just one more “hater” : please look at the 2 other moves from Moritz on this website , 2 airtakas from Pozo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-guw6VuZjQ or https://www.continentseven.com/2013/06/23/air-taka-moritz-mauch-2/ and https://www.continentseven.com/2013/05/27/air-taka-moritz-mauch/ please people have a look, on… Read more »

Damn. Why are people making this about onshore vs is sideshore. They’re both hard to be good at and and when some one sails well in either of these conditions it’s impressive.
…coz they compare apples and oranges! And as everybody knows: apples are better. No, wait, oranges! Or … apples?!

Watching this gem clip again and again I think that sail makers should focus on making sails more stable and friendly when ridden clew first-just a hint(I am sure that this will turn into a big topic for future tests,magazine reviews etc. How would the less batten sails compare to a five batten in such conditions?) Again, amazing Moritz!

Nice one!
for me, something like this is more spectacular than a clean waveride at hookipa. you have to adapt to this kind of conditions. to ride a clean wave is easier and i think most of the haters here have never done a cf goiter before….
Yes…I agree with this too. We need spectacular moves, not only down the line!!!

It is funny how almost every move posted on here from pozo is met with hostility. Yes the waves in pozo are small and choppy, so do you expect gouging carves, late hits and arials? Pozo is a windsurfing playground where people like Moritz can pull some crazy moves of tiny waves, and I think it looks awesome

i have done both, and u are so wrong …
.. what is more spectacular for people to watch. This wave-freestyle move is more interesting than a lot of this down the line stuff.
I don’t get these Hookipa guys always going on about how every turn should be like in surfing.
So drop the sail and go surfing.
This is windsurfing.
And we need this!
so absolutely right!
