What am I doing wrong?

Hello pumpfoilers, I need some help with my progression.

I started learning pump foiling a couple of weeks ago. I’ve recently managed to land on the board consistently, but I still can’t stay on foil for very long 😬

My setup isn’t really beginner-friendly, but it’s what I currently have, and I do have some wingfoiling experience.

Setup:
Sabfoil Leviathan 1350 BB
Gong Kluber 87 board
I’m 197cm and 104kg.

Right now I’m struggling to launch consistently with enough speed/power to avoid the board nose-diving. I think that’s probably my main issue at the moment.

Does it look like a technique problem, timing issue, or just difficult gear for my weight/level? Any tips would be massively appreciated 🙏
