Gold Coast winter evenings
Hi guys,
I wanted to share a small tip of how I remind myself of what is my goal in each surf.. in case anyone finds it useful. I draw my 'trigger words' on my board with black wax so you I can easily remove and change it or do just before paddling in. This way I constantly see it when I paddle or sit.
I made this one to help me remember to point the nose and my eyes where I want to go and remember the coffee cup hand as I struggle to put it on straight from the take off on my backhand.
Have a great day everyone!
Hey Ombe crew,
First time caller long time listener.
I have been skating on a smooth star for years now (i know don't judge me yet) as i didn't wanna fork out the funds for a new board as mine wasn't that old.
I am now in the market for a new board and am going to make the transition to carver CX trucks.
I have an email saved that Luke sent out in 2022 where he discussed his own carver setup. He mentioned that he used a pool board deck. As I really only skate in the park or the pool nowadays I think it makes sense to get that. Do you guys have any recs for pool boards decks atm? I am 6'3 so hoping to get one that is 33"/34" inches is possible.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all. Lucky enough to be asking this question from El Transito, Nicaragua 😎 (on one of my 2-3 trips per year, the only times I can surf)
What do you use for ear plugs (if you use them)? I have ear issues and so use earplugs but am not happy with them. Suggestions? Anyone try SurfEars?
Hey I think we need a December live zoom surf holiday party. Make it the last one of the year.
Hi Everyone! I have added the upcoming Live sessions for the rest of the year. Feel free to preregister, so you get notified when it starts. 😀
Can someone tell me why it's called the "Oreo biscuit/cookie" technique for catching waves?
I think it works great and use it myself. I just don't understand the name/connection to the Oreo
Hey guys !
Board question for a surfer looking for a board to nail « the line 2 » as Clayton say :
Between the CI MID TWIN 6’10 and the boss up 7’0 which board would fit better for waves condition between 2 to 5 ft ?
I’m 5’11 / 190lb and wants to work on my turns
Thanks guys !
