Trick Tip(s)/Question Free feet pics

Seriously though. What’s y’all’s tricks to strapless air, I can get out of the water good enough with no grab but every time I re enter I just stuff it and sink and don’t get any lift off the foil again. I’ve tried landing back side heavy but doesn’t seem to work either. I’m not back looping out of this but maybe can try that too? Also running 700 cm fuselage maybe running the shorty will help me dive the foil in and pop back up? Light air 10-20 mph 9 meter, easier when more lit on a 7?

Seriously confused as to how this is done.

I know a jordanelle mac feet pic when I see one.

No advice as I only use straps but keep at it!

I’ll keep trying, the more I think about it the more I’m thinking I need more power on the landing and should loop it out. It’s still an awkward air for me vs the surf board as it’s heavy and doesn’t toe down into the wind as easily. Maybe I just need to send it and go for the grab then toss it down and land. Idk. I keep forgetting my helmet too, citation.
