It only took me about 5 years 
The advice on here helped quite a bit. But, looking at a lot of footage and paying attention to some things, I came to the conclusion that I was shifting the sail and stepping too early.
Today was spotty and a bit choppy, but I managed to run the old JP Xcite 120 with an 8.0 when the tide was too little to foil.
I did some drills at first, which wast just me carving through the jibe without shifting the sail or my feet at all to feel where the wind flipped and to get more used to it.
After some of those, and a few tries, I finally got one out of 4 real attempts. After that the wind crapped out.
But, I focused on really sheeting in and carving with my old rear foot pretty forward, bent knees, and got my front foot in the strap but heel was way up and lifting hard. I knew I was past downwind, stepped, flipped, and bam I was still planing and got in the new straps!
Now that I have that feeling hopefully I can replicate it on a day where there are less dark clouds and rain spoiling things.
Superb!
You can try now first the sail flip and than the step...
When flip, hold the top of the mast somewhat inside turn (tilted like the board).
Adding to the chorus. Well done! I've known people who windsurfed for decades who never pulled one off.
Welcome to the endless merry-go-round Well, the fin version as you're already on the foil version. 
Well done ! I've been windsurfing (on and off ) for a long time and still not planning out . I have on a lucky few. This is my mission for this summer !
Congratulations! I still struggling with planings jibe. I have been windsurfing 9 years and I close maybe 6-8 planings jibe in total. To surf in a flat water spot helps for shore but even the preparation and all the movements must be perfect in the perfect time. Under this year I learn that I need to go more down wind and wait instead of to hade a short radius, because then I kill my planings jibe usually. But we all know you never stop learn in this sport.
That's a buzz!!!
I don't think I'd achieve that with only 17kts going in.
It's much easier going faster, I prefer at least mid 20s.
Congratulations! It took me 9 months. ...but I'm a bit obsessive - I probably did about 2,000 gybe attempts in that time + plus had two hours carve gybe coaching, which may have accelerated things a tad. It's a great feeling when the board just carries on gliding effortlessly out of a gybe - the feeling never gets old.
Once you've nailed it and got the feeling - you are well on your way to upping your success rate. One BIG thing for me has been learning to exit the gybe on a deep broad reach - which really keeps things on the fly.
A completely flying foiling gybe with no touchdowns still completely eludes me - so you've got one on me there.
Nice one!
