Start Performing Big Turns In The Surf With These Tips

- In this in-depth video Kale shows you How To Surf: Turning Your Surfboard. This is a really important topic to begin looking at because literally everything in surfing comes back to the ability to turn on a wave.
Turning on a wave allows us to chase and stay within the 'power zone' and to perform the manoeuvres we wana' perform!
Turning on a surfboard must always be considered a whole-body movement, not just a segmented process of the legs, torso or shoulders, but a kinetic chain of events linking together all three.

Thanks for tuning in guys - see you in the next video 😁
How do I find out about your surf camp? Is that July 2019?
How come you produce the best content about surfing on the whole of TH-cam?
It's absolutely crazy how useful and detailed your videos!
😍😍

@@HowtoRip can you guide us on how to ease into bigger waves on a shortboard? I surf head high to head and a half high (I'm 6'1) happily on my SUP but on a shortboard I find battling the rips when it's over 5ft a bit intimidating. Any ocean navigating/survival tips to be in the right spot appreciated 👌
Stuck in the 'intermediate' zone for ages. These tips are great. I look forward to employing them on my trip to France!
8:13 "Make sure you do it in a save place"...like in the middle of all your furniture hahahaha dude
Hahaha
hey guys, surfer from florida here. I have been surfing a few years now but still struggle so much with surfing top to bottom efficiently and your videos have seriously helped me so much! I've never had a lesson or anything, so youtube is a huge resource to better my surfing! keep it up, these videos are awesome
Lads teach us in a few seperate videos how to approach each type of turn in great detail. Eg an off the lip, a floater, a drop wallet etc. And what type of section demands which turn type. Cheers 🤙👍 loving the videos
You guys have such beautiful water and beaches. Here in new Hampshire usa our water is ice cold year round,gray and dark sand. I need to surf somewhere tropical for once
Following the videos for a while during my progression. Much love and respect from Germany!
Well done; as a SoCal surfer I appreciate great lessons for the beginners. groms and the like. Thanks
Great vid I have been surfing for 30 years and learnt so much good info from this vid thankyou
: )) so stoked for progression : )
always nice instructional video guys ! thanks
This is exactly where I’m struggling with my surfing at the moment. Your videos have been helping heaps! Thanks 🤘🏾
McCauley Baker awesome glad they’ve been helping :)
Awesome video. Exactly what I needed for today’s session. Mahalo.
This helped me so much!!!! So awesome :)
Great again!!! Thanks guys!!!
I really needed this!!!
One of the best videos..
Love this videos man, peace from the U.K.! :)
I was watching your channel on youtube and thought that it would be really great to introduce your video to Korean surfers
We have lots of people here in Korea that are interested in surfers around the world !
Small boards allow learners to control their craft without hitting people in crowded surf.
I found for core strength, Palloff press/isometric holds to really help me and for leg strength, rear foot elevated single leg split squats felt like they had a good degree of carry over to surfing.
They are easy to load up at home too as you don't need much weight.
Hope this helps someone. :)
I stand corrected, this beat is pretty dope haha
i love kale
Love your channel, man. Keep up the great work 🤙🏼
Kale …. Preach / Teach -- surfing 🏄🏼♂️ techniques / skills / knowledge for free .. Amazing dude !!!
Great advice.u surf really well too Kale.
Love the content!
watched this video to apply on river surfing here in Munich. Having troubles with turning to my backside.
This has been the most helpful one for me yet. Would be great if you could generally do some more stuff that helps getting from an intermediate level to a more advanced one
Best Video so far!!! Thanks keep them coming!
😁
surfvocals 😍🎥🏄🏼♂️
I like your yoga approach 🧘♀️
Great videos thanks, Kales!
Ryan Ambler yeah thank you!!! Kale 😁
The waves in this beach seems to be always so perfect, it's a little small but very consistent and clean. Where do you surf mate? Cheers from Brazil!
Great video as always. Am often looking for videos of goofy backhand surfing big turns... any suggestions?
I think I now know where I’m getting it wrong. I always use my upper body and my feet to turn - instead I need to link both with my legs by squatting slightly and pressing down when needed, and using the hips to help angle the board.
You just answered my question at the end ty 😂
Great video
thanks mate, great instructional videos.
Adam Morehouse thanks Adam
Thanks for this guys. Saludos desde mexico!!
Gracias!!
Thanks bro!
Really enjoy your tutorial - Great that the person providing the instruction, Kale, sure can rip !!
Fwoar thanks 🤙🏽
Simon knows how to make a girl blush 💁🏼♀️😊🥰
Awesome lesson!
Awerback 🤙🏽🙏🏽
Awesome vids
Hey love the video, do you think you can do one on feet positioning, next such as whether to move your back foot forward while pumping or how to get your back foot on the traction pad immediately after popping up or just how to pop up with your back foot on the traction pad (if that’s even possible)
You shouldn't be moving your feet on short boards,, pop up and pump,, it's pumping and you could be riping..!!
great vid
Do you recommend a lighter or heavier board for beginners ?Just asking ..sorry for the stupid question
This shit got me stoked.
Hey man, my main problem is my front foot is always too far forward but it’s too much of a habit now and I can’t do snaps when my foot is so far up. Any tips?
I disagree with moving to a fish quickly. Beginners should learn to turn longboards and midlengths before learning to turn on a fish. Their problem is usually standing in the middle of the longboard and attempting turns. Then they blame the longboard for being too big.
You touched on this but beginners typically focus way too much on the upper body and not on getting their back foot back far enough on the board. The back foot also shifts slightly up and down depending on the wave face.
Also, beginners dont know when to turn on the wave. I see people pump themselves off a wave and then try to cutback. Or they bottom turn on a closeout and get hit in the head.
You could make a video of just beginners and show what they do wrong on their turns.
Yes! This is so true what Connor said- I do that all! Beginner mistakes on turning video PLEASE! Do you have a Patreon, Kale? Great production quality and music selection!!!
It depends on who the beginner is. If it was an older person I’d recommend staying on a larger board I guess because they wouldn’t have the same alacrity as a younger beginner.
But, shifting from a big board to a smaller one cuts down the learning curve - I guess there are some things which need to be mastered like taking off, catching waves really easily and cutting across the face FIRST before the transition takes place.

Hi, I am not sure if it translates, at some point you just start getting better at longboarding but get stuck in shortboarding, and I'm speaking from experience
Depends on the person.. Whether you spend a little longer on a longboard first or not.. the transition is going to mess with you. As long as you have the basics down and you can turn and go down the line and you feel like the huge board may be holding you back... I think that’s a good time to transition.
Great video.

hi, thank you once again for an awesome video, i was wondering what size fishboard would you recommend for someone who is 5'7" height and around 55kg-60kg weight (does height and weight matter at all?)
Alex Yap weight and volume matter and ability
Maybe a 30L
@@KalesBroccoli thanks kales!
Have you considered charging for video analysis .... surfer can send you footage of them surfing and then designing an improvement plan to follow? From exercise to board selection etc
Because you are a brilliant expert.
👌👌
Surfing!
Thanks guys
Tom Pentelow thank you Tom!
you have a sick backhand bro
Fanks 😍😍
I've got into the habit of doing a half-hearted cutback when I ride toe-side. I start it and my back foot comes around (like a check-turn in snowboarding) but then I struggle to twist my head and upper body through the movement without losing my balance, so I end up looking down the line and can't complete the cutback. It's not an issue heel-side as I don't need to look over my shoulder when rotating (if that makes sense?). I'll give that squat stretch/exercise a go, might remind me to engage my back and head during that rotation through the turn, but if you have any other tips I'd really appreciate it?
Stay lower to the surfboard as well. And practice on land !
A SmoothStar would help too
I’m just trying to learn how to surf with my youngest daughter who’s 15..I’m not trying to be a professional surfer ..so hopefully I get to this point 😂I am crazy !Im 42 and just starting😂
few more laugh crying emojis and you'll be a pro
Good pool shark at 0.00 !
Michael Wilson yeah!
Does it matter if your leash is on your left ankle, If so do I have to go the other direction?
you put the leash on your back leg
Awesome footage and tips! Did you nose dive with the board at 5:10? Also i got a random question, when ever I go for a session, my leash has a tendency to go between my between my stupid toes, my big toe seems like the culprit, (imagine if you were wearing havana flip flops, there), any idea what unique trick am I doing and how to fix? I have tried stretching my leash and it happens about every 10th wave
Keep the leash straight and untangled in between surfs
You might also need a new leash if it’s too bent
Nice carve at 4:32
Can you please make a video giving some details about how position yourself in the water? Or tips for people who are just starting to catch unbroken waves
They have a video on that! Also, sit and observe where the shoulder is and if it stays there or if it moves up/down the beach!
Too complex, makes me feel like giving up. But I won’t 😎
You can do it
Will you please make one to teach us how to do chop hops?
They seem fun.
No. Never. Ever. Chop hop.
Hi, not that I’m this level yet but this kind of contradicts another you tuber , surf simply, who says that body movement should be kept minimal unless you’re advanced and going back into the wave. He says you should initiate with your feet, granted in an open shoulder position for bs turn. Are you initiating with you eyes and shoulders simultaneously with you foot work? Little confused now, is it just another way of ‘skinning a cat’ to get the same results.
Was that shark on the opening wave?
Oh wait ye
Dolphin
lit
Who else saw the dolfines at 0:01
Just Chase everyone
What about foot placement?
👏👏
How do you use your arms to generate speed on a wave?
Ryan The Rock watch How To Surf Small Waves one of my recent videos
Flap them
😂😂😂@@bobjones1885
I got in the habit of moving my front arm and foot too much. I noticed pro surfers moves the back arm. How do I switch?
Practice 😁 we’ll have some more videos coming
I would like to see your videos in Spanish subtitles ! Thanks
We’re working on it!
You have a great technique!
The exercizes are good but actually misleading because they're always weight-centered, while any turn start with a weight shift and transfer weight from one leg to the other while involving the arms. So weight centered exercize are misleading in my opinion (squats included). It may lead to a flat board style, at best.
5:52 my daily dance routine
where r u surfing ?
I wish you did these vids on 7 foot fun shape boards, only advanced surfers ride short boards/fish shapes.
Everything we recommend can be used regardless of what board you ride. The techniques are the same.
holy shit
What are the names of the turns im so confused
Don’t worry about the names
@@HowtoRip ahah alright my mate always come up with the stupidst names for everything and i was so lost
Where is it ? Very cool video
East coast Australia :)
During my trip in Australia, I just surf Noosa Heads and Bondi beach... not see beautiful spot like that ^^
Credits for music????
The youtube community has a drinking game with your vids. Drink every time you say “if you will”
Are those dolphins at the start?
Kitty Sisters maybe 😁🧜🏽♂️
@@KalesBroccoli awesome! You have taught me so much about surfing and now I am a pro! Thanks
That stretch is known as" the caveman calling for tp."
Yew
Why does the person around 8:40 not have to turn their head
Who noticed the fish in the wave at the start
Anyone see the sharks at the very beginning of the video
I'll need some wax
