Finally an explanation

For months I have been doing something wrong with my windfoiling.

This site and Wyatt Miller have the explanation of what I should focus on to solve these problems:

My list of takeaways from this is:
  1. crank upwind in gusty overpowering conditions - resist the habit of sheeting off in the gusts;
  2. get your body weight forward, by default and use the front leg to balance the pitch;
  3. do not hang out the side of the board, stand straight up;
  4. use lots of room to slowly gybe the board, hold off flipping the sail;
  5. don't worry about being too far downwind, getting back up is easy;
  6. move harness lines forward and don't get too concerned if you don't hook in.
