Exciting Changes Ahead! 🌊We’ve restructured our footage review process to make it more beneficial for everyone. While live sessions will be on pause as we adapt to new dynamics with our two candidates, we’re thrilled to announce a fresh approach: your submissions will now be reviewed and shared here in the community!Here’s why we’re embracing this new method:✔️More Engagement: Posting reviews here encourages interaction and brings our quieter members into the conversation. Lives were limiting, as only those free at the time could participate.✔️Flexibility for Clay: With a packed schedule of retreats next year, this setup allows Clay to review submissions remotely during his downtime—ensuring faster and more consistent feedback.✔️Easier Access: Every review and takeaway will be visible to everyone, making it simpler to learn and improve without sifting through past live sessions.✔️Focused Feedback: This organized system will help you concentrate on specific areas to improve.🔔 A few reminders: • Submit one video at a time to give everyone a fair chance for feedback. • Avoid submitting distant or surf-cam footage—Clay needs clear visuals to provide effective, actionable advice.We can’t thank you enough for your support, patience, and understanding as we work through these changes together. Your willingness to adapt and grow with us means the world, and we’re so appreciative of this amazing community. 🙏P.S. I’ve added a Google sheet in the comments for tracking your submissions. If you’d like your older footage skipped, simply select “Y” in column F. This will indicate you’re uploading newer training footage. If you select “N,” Clay will proceed with reviewing your current submission. Let us know if you have any questions!

Hey team - brand new to Ombe, just starting the beginner class (I'm more beginner/intermediate but going through it to beat bad habits). Even though I'm right handed and my strong leg is the right one - I prefer to surf with my strong leg in front (goofy) as it's where my weight should be - can anyone answer if that's weird and why? And should I focus on relearning stance or just keep on going with what's comfy? Cheers heaps

What got you in to surfing?
During 2nd big Covid Lockdown (November 2020) I went to check on my Mum in North Devon and never went home. Now her full time carer, I started surfing, initially for my own mental health and fitness, aged 56.
Joined OMBE during The Pandemic and progressed from 9ft to 8ft and then a 7ft foamie. Now, June 2024, I'm on a 7ft 8 Ryan-Marco performance mini mal and a 6ft Mayhem Puddle Jumper - trying to perfect my rail game whilst fighting stubborn meniscus and rotator cuff injuries. Is this a sign of addiction? 🤔 🤪

Is anyone else having problems trying to follow the discussions on here?
There doesn't seem to be any sort of proper message threads like you get on regular bulletin boards/ forums and the default setting is "popular" rather than "newest" which doesn't help either ☹️
I find it very difficult to figure out which message a reply is referring to.
