Well nice, i stept down to a shortboard after optimising my Pop-up and cutting across the wave face and staring Turns on a 7'0, And now i chose a 5'11 shortboard, even thought it might be a big jump but i feel confident and i know i can do it, it may take a while to get it, but i have time and i spend a lot of time in the ocean 🤙
i'm french but it's very easy to understand thanks u ! the firts vidéo was cool, i start the second! i bought a shortboard i'm waiting the shipping !!!!!! so exiting
Thanks, I like the bit about inside rail pressure. I'm gonna try this cause I tend to get rolled rail over rail when trying to angle the take off. At my break, the waves get steep pretty quick, and I have an 8 foot foamy.
Thanks for explaining the pop-up. You're making the surfing life so much easier by explaining the pop-up. I struggle with the pop up for years. Your videos are definitely helping me. I wish professional Surfers on the championship tour in the world qualification series what actually explain their styles of pop up and what works for them and why they do a certain type of pop-up just be very helpful to the entire worldwide surfing community. Thank you for what you do hope to learn more.
My question is: will the wave look like it's a vertical drop from the point where your hands are? Because it seems like when I'm taking off on a longboard I just glide into the wave. But on a shortboard it feels like taking off on a halfpipe with a wave about to break on my back!
They definitely are steeper, and timing is more important. The answer is though it depends on the wave you're surfing. If it actually seems vertical there's 3 possibilities for it seeming so. One it's not that powerful/hollow of a wave and you have paddled from too deep, you don't get into the wave till late, get caught in the lip qnd by the time you're popping it's too steep. This often happens when people over correct for slower pop up/incorrect positioning on the shoulder and try to brute force paddle into the wave from deep. 2. You are too late for the wave and need to catch it a meter or two further back, or a meter or two to the side where it's a softer/slower shoulder. 3. You're in the right position but it is q powerful wave and you are not arching your back enough and are too slow with your pop up. When you start getting onto barrelling waves like I'm transitioning to at the moment this last one will happen alot. But is also common when people are used to having alot of time on longboard and bringing their head down to the board OK fatter waves to get in.
May i know the difference when using longboard and shortboard to paddle for a wave. I am transitioning to shortboard. When using longboard I often lower my upper body to increase the momentum needed to slide down the wave, but when I did the same on shortboard, the nose will sink into the water. I am so confused should I lift my chest up ? I do that , the board wouldn’t slide the wave🤯🤯
Is there a way or is there a possibility that you have a person filming from in the water close up to your surfboard or drone the way that professional shoot video so that we can see the feet were up clothes actually in play in the water?
It took me my first 2-3 hour session to pop up on my 6'6 35L board but I've been surfing on an 8ft foamie for years. What dimensions are your board? Volume?
Cloudan yeah, you're not alone trust me 😂. I've been working on my greedy beaver 6'6 for a couple weeks now and still can't pop up correctly... Going back and forth between the beaver and my 8ft waveform soft top until I figure it all out. I am a good intermediate kitesurfer, snowboarder, etc... And surfing is still the one thing that frustrates me the most because there is so much going on in this port. It's not only Physically hard, but also you must understand some fluid dynamics, physics, body position, priorities in the line up, etc... You'll get it at some point trust me
Kinouille K yeah I need to get racks on my car so that I can bring my longboard back down to the beach I’m gonna learn the pop up for the shortboard on that then transfer back down. I have faith we will both get in one day 💪.
@@luciddreamentertainment7045 Soft surfboard rack on Amazon. They are like 40USD/Euro (I don't know where you're from) and do the job no problem. I've put 2 x 8ft wavestorm on it and an 8ft TorQ and it was fine. A bit loud if you're going fast but definitely did the job for the price. I tried to sell the Greedy Beaver as I was getting frustrated but a shop around here told me not to and to rent their longboard for now so I can practice. They are all surf instructor and kept mentioning that it takes a few months but we will get there. So far, Kite foiling and surfing are the 2 sports that are kicking my a$$ haha. Send me a video when you finally get it!
haha the first few seconds of this video had me wondering if i clicked on the right video

Cool videos both 1 and 2 - cheers for that!

Congratulations on the new board. I hope it rides like a dream!

A tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies these days.
@Richard Caspian yea, I've been watching on flixzone for months myself =)
@Richard Caspian Yea, been using flixzone for months myself =)
@@richardcaspian4414 Not a problem anymore, I got a 7 foot board, with sharper rails, and trained hard on land to get up faster, smoother.
Good advice

Really thorough and precise
Please keep the good stuff coming....
The intro tho 😂
Got lure people in. LOL
Great explanations

Yes. Unless you're a pro or can paddle super fast, most drop ins on a surfboard are steep compared to a longboard

1:23 lads, you gotta see it to believe it
THanks to ya know i know how to pop up on the board
Que lastima que estas en Costa Rica y no usas los subtitulos en español.. Es información muy valiosa para los que recién iniciamos en el surf.. 🥺🤙🏼
gracias por tu consejo. ¿estás en lo correcto? Deberíamos poner subtítulos en español.
Grazie❤

I got a 5’6 22L without even knowing how to pop up on a shortboard, is soo hard
Practice, practice, practice. Surfing is a life long journey.
I’ve been shortboarding for about a month now and am still trying to pop up on it. Is this normal? How long did it take you guys?
It took me my first 2-3 hour session to pop up on my 6'6 35L board but I've been surfing on an 8ft foamie for years. What dimensions are your board? Volume?
James my board is a odysea rnf lost 5’11 and it is 48 liters

I have a 9ft long board and want to advance to a shorter board. What kind of board should I get?
I would suggest going to a fish for the bouncy. Something a little thicker at the beginning makes the transition easier.
Nothing kookie about kicking, Slater definitely kicks.
2:59: A big bag of what? Sorry, my Ozzish is pretty bad.
Haribo, it’s gummy sweets
@@ax8163 Ah, thanks. I'm pretty sure I look like that all the time.
@@C84__84 yeah definitely a British thing. I’m Aussie and I’ve never heard of Harribo
Yuck girls are so weird on a surfboard. Ugly style. Like this one @ 0:57mn
