Parawing Down Wind - Long Beach to Sherkston Greg Lloyd 2026-08-28 | Ran downwind, checking out the different conditions along the way. The Lake Erie swells are as good as the north shore downwind runs on Maui. However, the winds are not as strong. Used the 4m parawing with 3m as my backup. Should have packed the 5m because the last section became so light that I was having difficulty getting on foil. Lesson learned today: Pack the 3m and 5m as backups.

DIY Parawing Leash with Shock Cord Greg Lloyd 2026-06-12 | Part 2 of my DIY Parawing Leash - With Shock Cord. Created at DIY parawing leash after frustration buying expensive leases that broke, tangled in my feet and parawing lines, or stretch when trying to reel in my board.

Using the Brummel Locking-Splice method to make the loopsExplaining the Brummel Locking-Splice with access to BOTH ends of the rope & with access to only ONE end of the rope. Last part, adding a shock cord. Not convinced shock cord is needed.

Parawing on a Skateboard Greg Lloyd 2026-03-09 | First attempt using the parawing on a skateboard. It's a lot of fun! I prefer it over the wind wing because you can ride one handed. It feels more free with one hand. I wouldn't try this with a brand new parawing because there were a few moments when the kite scuffed the pavement. You can accellerate instantly with the gusts. The glide on the skateboard is better than mountain board. Allows to practice jybes. I did a few behind the back jybes which I've never done on the water. My recommendation for parawing on a skateboard is to buy one that used or cheap clearance parawing.

2025 Halloween Wing Foiling Greg Lloyd 2025-10-29 | Getting the shots to make this video was very challenging. Can't see with the mask on and can't breath with the mask; especially when it gets wet. The sunglasses didn't help but they make the costume. Wish I had video of me suffocating in the water and ripping the mask off to grab a breath. Couldn't see or feel the wind direction, which made getting up on foil very difficult. Made myself laugh producing the video. Hope it you get a laugh too. Enjoy..

Parawing Lake Erie - Better than MAUI? Sept 5, 2025 Greg Lloyd 2025-09-06 | Swells on Lake Erie were better than the summer downwind run swells on Maui. Cleaner, as big and more predictable. No sharks to worry about

November 11, 2024 Long Beach wing Foiling Greg Lloyd 2024-11-12 | Searching for big offshore swells. Only 2.5km offshore from the bottom of the Bay, but it feels uncomfortably far offshore. If I doubled the distance the swells would be even bigger, but that's beyond my comfort zone. If I blow a bladder, I estimate swimming back downwind at 2-3 kph. The swells are the biggest off the point, leeward side.

Wing Foiling - Launching in Shore Break Greg Lloyd 2024-09-29 | My new technique for launching the foil in shore break. Previously I pushed the board out, with the mast up. Sometimes a wave would spin & flip the foil onto my wing. Now I drag the foil out, walking backwards. Easier to walk backwards into the waves. Also prevents the board from spinning sideways and flipping. You don't get face blasted by waves. I drag the wing with an extra long leash. If the board flips the wing will be clear from damage.
Long Beach, September 9, 2024 - Windsurf & Wing Foiling Greg Lloyd 2024-09-11 | Old school windsurf session to see if I can still do it. Followed by wing foiling. Wing foil is effortless, more fun and higher performance. I forgot how exhausting windsurfing can be. Especially when not hooked in the harness. The jibes are fun on the windsurfer, but going from point A to B is like riding down an unpaved road with four flat tires compared to the foil. The wing foil carves upwind effortlessly, like a gondola ride. Followed by a downwind run, 3D foil surfing large rolling Lake Erie swells. Closer to shore the swells turn into steeper, partially braking waves. Closest to shore the waves are breaking steeper and consistently.Hope this video shares the stoke. ENJOY!

Kettle Point, Lake Huron - Wave Sailing Directory Greg Lloyd 2024-08-22 | Looking for the biggest and best waves on Lake Huron for windsurfing, kitesurfing or wing foiling? Kettle Point is the place. The NE facing shore of Kettle point tears down the large waves that are generated by strong N to NW winds. In addition, the submerged peninsula that extends out beyond the point creates a reef style barrier. The sandy bottom contour of the lake is unique in this area, allowing for a "somewhat" easy launch. I made this video because there is uncertainty with fellow watermen when choosing a launch site. This video answer those questions. August 19, 2024Music By: Stick Figure
Wing Foiling Jibe Tutorial Greg Lloyd 2024-08-18 | Step by step tutorial will help beginners and intermediates jibe a wing foil board. These are the methods I figured out by myself over the years. There maybe other ideas. If you follow these steps you jibe easily, then progress using the same steps. To make the learning process easier, learn on flat water with a larger board and foil. When choosing the wing size, error on the side of too big than too small. Good Luck! Aquaman,
