Great conditions So are you luffing mostly at the front of the boom or on the front handle?

Wind wasn't that strong , so using a 6 plus the camera and pole weigh the back of the wing down. So I was using boom and front Handel to steady the camera but normally one hand on the boom but front handle only if enough speed to support the wing .

Makes sense. I mount my GoPro Max at the rear of my SLS Slicks as well. When jibing or downwind luffing I'll even hold the boom a littler farther back than I normally do when the camera is mounted
