tip 16... timing on your takeoff is everything, try to speed it up, slow it down, mess around with it, it's not just hit or miss, sometimes it's go straighter and slower, so that you have speed on the next section
I am completely grateful for the dissemination of this material about how to surf, they have been able to explain themselves very well on this subject, I hope they can know how to apply it very well above all, but even make the most of it
This was very good and def validation for me that I'm not in the intermediate group bc I can't readily throw 360s. So much good info I loved the needing a wider board to mute the arm waving. Beginners should watch this too. Well done.
Very nice training videos for average surfer... Thanks for your sharing... Your explanation is really great ..I always dream about surfing but I never had proper instruction on how to do it,this really cleared up a lot for me
Last tip about having fun is so important. I remember my friend aiden saying that the best skater in he Park is the one with biggest smile. Its got to work hard at technique but you got have moments where you just play. Having said that I definitely need to get on the waves quicker.

Wow,i have really liked this video on how to surf better.Thank you for uploading this video since i have learnt something new.I will recommend this video to anyone interested.
It is interesting to see the divide between coaches/surfers in advice about whether to start a turn from the top down (head, shoulders, hips, knees) or bottom up (knees, hips, shoulders, head). Similar goes for snowboarding. But in following the "look where you want to go" advice, it seems like you generally start with your head/eyes first, so this is a bit counter to the advice of starting the turn with your knees. I guess it all comes down to the timing of the moving parts and if you do either one sequentially and smoothly then you will produce a nice turn
My mind surfing just got 20% better in 11 min. Thank you!
Our pleasure!
Class summary
#1 Understand your board - advanced surfers don't move much allowing them to use very responsive boards (performance shorty)
#2 Less is more - don't do unnecessary movements, let the wave dictate how to move
#3 Surf in the pocket - don't race to the shoulder, you'll have more power in the pocket
#4 Slow bottom turn - 1 2 3 and top turn (gives you time to set up)
#5 Look where you want to go - especially in the cutback, it will allow you to see how much time you have to complete the turn
#6 Twist to turn - ankles, knees, hips, shoulders (and head)
#7 Surf front on - you lose peripheral vision when you surf sideways and makes your surfing look awkward
#8 Take off at the peak - position yourself at the peak so you can glide in and set up instead of using a lot of energy paddling on the shoulder
#9 Speed generation - compress and extend instead of wiggling
#10 Foot Placement - stack your weight on your front foot to allow your back foot to move and adjust for speed or turning on your heel or toes
#11 Copy and Paste - simulate your favorite surfers style and have fun with it
#12 Stop standing on your board - start turning; by using your rails instead of the flat part of your board you generate speed
#13 Focus - be in the moment and feel the wave, slow it down and focus on one thing at a time getting 1% better
#14 Be your own coach - look at your own footage and analyze how your board is movement, how you are moving, and where your head's at
#15 Have Fun - and share it! Experience with boards, fin set-ups, body surf, etc
