Stoked to say it clicked finally.

Went out this morning for my first proper surf in what feels like forever. The wave here are always sub par so went into it with no expectations, just wanted to get in the water and ride a real board (Firewire Revo max 6'9" twin-fin midlength) instead of the usual foamie on family beach day.

Third wave of the day and the extension and compression just started happening. I can't even honestly say I was trying to do it, it just felt like it was happening naturally and was so easy. Even tried bashing a turn into the close out section cause it just felt right. The sun broke through the clouds just as it was all happening, like the surf gods were smiling down on me.

Because of the terrible typical surf conditions here in Myrtle Beach, SC. I've honestly only been skating the bowl everyday for weeks. Till that extension and compression also became so natural. And today in the water that carried over. The wave slowed down. It felt stylish, though I doubt it looked as good as it felt to me, but it opened up my day into trying actual turns and cutback attempts for the first real time ever.

Unfortunately the surfline cam stares into the sun that time of the morning so no decent clip to share but im stoked. The midlength really helped slow me down I think, I'll be sticking with that till I progress more.

Just super stoked.... wanted to share.... yeeewwww

Hi team! Just went to the wave in Bristol and looking for any pointers to take my surfing to the next level. Thanks :)

Hey everyone. I just had a client drop out of a Mentawais boat trip planned for October 2026. Send me a message if anyone is keen. I can do it at a reduced rate.

Hi everyone! 👋

I have a couple of questions regarding my OMBE Lifetime Membership and was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issues.

When I try to watch The OMBE Method content (Trim Lines, High Lines, Turn Lines, and Vertical Lines), I get a message saying I don’t have access and inviting me to purchase a membership. As a Lifetime Member, I was expecting to have access to this content. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you resolve it?

Where can I find the Monthly Challenge content within the app? I can’t seem to locate it.

I’d really appreciate any advice or guidance from the community. Thanks in advance! 🙏🌊

Be injured a while from surfing, finally getting back, any tips for the top turn? Or actually i should do a deeper bottom turn to reach more the lips?

Hi, I think my problem is that I surf to low in the wave and don’t go to the top sufficiently; any suggestion to improve doing it? Thanks

This is me at progressive turn rights.

I struggle a bit on my backside and really struggled to capture speed on this session.

My feeling is that I’m surfing too flat and thats slowing it down but I dont know how to keep things on rail for such a weak and small wave.

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

I am sidelined for a bit with a broken toe (non-surfing injury), so I've been taking some video of my friend surfing using my phone.

Really has reinforced how the body automatically wants to follow the eyes.  Every single time I looked up to actually see him in the water rather than through the phone screen, the phone tilted up and I was filming the sky.

Really hoping my board will follow my gaze the same way when I look back at the foam on a cutback once I am back in the water!

Going to wait till my follow up dr appt. before I try surfing, but anyone have experience with getting back to surfing after recovering from a broken toe?  Assuming it won't make much difference as long as I don't rush back into it before it fully heals.
