This week we have another 'Pro Tips' video to help you guys with the most important element to surfing.... the Bottom Turn. This sets everything up and without these fundamentals we are unable to complete critical maneuvers in the lip with speed. Enjoy, share with a friend that may need some help and comment with any questions.

Andy Irons, he keeps his left hand/arm relaxed basically on his left knee, it creates a flowing seamless transition like a real connection to the wave...Same with Rob Machado, real fluid motion....Puts style into a ride, whether dynamic or going hard at it, or cruising..Keeps your hips and balance through the turn on point..
You are such a good coach! More please 🙏
More to come!
Unfortunately, at 60 my body is much more upright on my bottom turns. At least I’m still on a short board. Loving these comparisons. Till next time. Thanks 🤙
Keep it up! 60 and on a shortboard 💪 glad you enjoyed the vid 😊
Always need the education and form reviews! Just what I am working on.
Your technique videos are awesome and very detailed! Love to see more of them! ( cut backs, lay backs)
More to come! 😀🙌
From New Zealand so cool thank you Lakey very helpful 🏄🏽♂️🏄🏽♂️
Glad you enjoyed it!
So well done. A must watch .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Lakey! I love your analysis of snap variations and correct bottom turn techniques. The side by side breakdown of two professionals takes it to a new level and will translate to in water improvements. I have alot of bad habits to break this will help!!! Keep breaking it down! You are great at it🤩
Stoked to hear you enjoyed the video and that it was helpful 🙌
Best explanation I’ve seen.
Stoked you liked it 🙏
Sick!
Cool it is the most important manoeuvre in surfing.👍
True that! 👌
Thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge. The side by side comparison is extremely helpful. Keep it up! Oh and you absolutely shred!!!!

Great breakdown. I see now that I am looking down the line and not up at the lip. Thank you very much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tips LP. 🏄🏼♂️🏄♀️🤙🏽🤙🏽
Any time! 😊
Wow, what deeper understanding and more accurate technical analysis than most of these tip videos. So many similar videos are a bit hokey, this is great.
Glad it was helpful!
we have the best teacher, two big hugs from Barcelona friends 🌹🤙
Thanks Marcelo 😊
I love this video!! Thank you, it is soooo good. Can you do a backhand bottom turn as well?
Yes of course! Stay tuned 🙌
Thank you!❤

Thank you! Will do! 😊
Wow, must do more like this
Glad you enjoyed 🙌
thank you so much!
You're welcome!
This is great! 🙏🙏 Could you do one on the backside bottom turn? That is something I’m always struggling with😅
Great suggestion!
This is amazing. Thank you for taking the time to post this. What software are you using to analyze the video? I can’t wait to see more!
Stoked you enjoyed it! It’s called onform! I love it 👌🙌
🔥
Thanks for the breakdown, how similar would it be for small waves, 2-4 ft?
Very similar! Just less time to react. 🙌
when finally got a RIKT it made my turns 100% better
👍
Great video. Where on the board is your target for your front foot? Do you ever move your front, or just the back foot (not just bottom turns, but in general)?
Good question! Personally, I only move my front foot for turns when I’m riding a gun at say sunset! But on a regular shortboard, I keep my feet pretty neutral.
In terms of the location of the front foot, it depends on the board and the boards ‘sweet spot’.
Please a tip to get your foot position right. I m mostly to far forward and push to much on the front foot. I know about it but can't resolve it, any drills I should focus on? I feel my back foot is slightly too open too. I surfed short fish and it helps to get the foot at the right spot but I regress over time once I get used to the board...
Thank you!! After you reviewed the footage - did you change your own bottom turn to be less hinge and more stacked or do your own body mechanics also play a role in your bottom turn's style? Also, for me, it is easier to do a bottom turn on my backside than my frontside. Is that normal?
This was a great, well explained video! My question, do you think adding a pump before the bottom turn helps in terms of getting the board to plane more first/go faster?
I’ve actually tried to eliminate the pump down the bottom in the last few years. Race down the line and draw 1 smooth bottom turn. I think it looks more appealing and stylish
@@Lakey_Peterson I’m gonna start trying that!! Thanks Lakey! 🤙🤙

Is the back foot flat, or are you on the ball of your foot? I was studying Jack Robinson bottom turn and his back foot looks flat. (My back foot comes up-I have tight ankles) Thanks, for the great detailed tips!
❤ :)
:D Bingo Bango Pickle mango :D Perfect
🙌
Has anyone made the observation that the degree of your bottom turn is the same as the degree of the top turn? Does that make sense?
I'm sorry butt Alana Blanchard has the best Bottom Turn in all of Surfing...
