Staying on foil

Hello,
I'm new to wingfoiling and I've recently bought a beginner set.
My first time foiling but I do have experience in watersports.
Really loving the feel of wingfoiling so far! For now I'm on
inland water to get the hang of it. With decent wind I can get
on foil and cruise around. When there are lulls in the wind I
often slow down to much and I go of foil. Pumping the wing a bit
and the board helps but I'm not efficient in this. And I was
wondering if I should point more upwind in the lulls or go
downwind? And are there any other tips to stay longer on foil so
I can connect better to the next gust. Hope to hear your tips,
thank you :)

All of above: pointing up wind when powered, down wind in lulls,
learn to pump foil - that really helps to connect gusts.
