Heel to Toe Tack
The tack in normal riding position
The term heel to toe tack refers to the normal tack when wing foiling. The tack is initiated in the normal foot position (heels on the windward side, heelside). The foot position is not changed during the jibe, so you continue foiling in switch stance afterwards (toes on the windward side, toeside).
Here you can see a video tutorial from the Duotone Wing Academy with Stefan Spiessberger on the heel to toe tack.
