How To SUP Foil #1: Paddling straight on a shorter board

This is the first video in a series of SUP Foiling instructional videos: How to paddle straight on a short board.
To make a short board go straight, the stoke has to be modified. I find short strokes pulling towards the feet and ending by the toes seem to work best. Angling the blade towards the body, starting the stroke far in front and taking short strokes pulling the board straight forward are described in the video. This is also called J stroke or reverse J-stroke.
The next videos in this series will be: #2 catching a wave and lift off, #3 controlling height and speed, #4 pumping the foil, #5 turning the foil
