There's the controlled jibe and the chicken jibe, plus a couple of others. My advise to beginners is to use the controlled jibe in light to medium air. In strong winds or gusty conditions my suggestions to beginners is to use the "chicken jibe" because it's a safer method. When they have confidence in jibing they can use either in strong or gusty conditions. Notice I didn't attach a value to what constitutes medium or strong winds -- what those values are to some folks is not what they are for others.
What jibing method do you guys prefer??
