5 Reasons to Stop āChecking the Wavesā and Just Go Surfing
https://www.theinertia.com/surf/5-reasons-stop-checking-waves-just-go/
Hey guys,
Does anyone has a definied workout routine? I mean like how many repetitions or series, and how many times at a week about each movement?
When I pop up, sometimes I do it really wel and can surf the line. However, sometimes when Iām popping up, I get up and fall forward, falling in front of my board and the board then drops on top of me. What is causing this? How can I fix my pop up? I feel like this is really limiting my improvement and would love to get help on this.
Hey guys,
Iām new to the community and OMBE, loving it so far! Iāve been working on my walk up and relaxing in the water and the bus stop analogy has done wonders, Iām no longer second guessing myself with positioning.
I just had a question as me and my friends always have arguments about this.
So if you are surfing fat waves all the time can this effect your pop up for when you go into steeper waves?
Or is the problem not actually in the wave but in the pop up itself. I understand a steeper wave is going to give you more lift/push but if you position yourself correctly on a fat wave does it really matter?
Thanks,
Laura
Hey guys! Where does one submit videos for the feedback sessions? The videos are working for me now (no more paywall) but I canāt seem to find where to submit for next monthās review.
Thanks for the help!
Is it possible that a person's board can have too much bouyancy for them? Because my gut is telling me I do. Despite being a Beg.
Hope this can help the over thinkers and those with high expectations. I almost gave up surfing last year after going to Urbnsurf and falling off at takeoff on nearly every Cruiser or PT wave for a whole weekend. I'm a long-time beginner (more than 10 years) who has improved surf skating more than surfing.
I had two sessions between connecting flights last week and had way more fun going in focusing on what I was ok failing with. After the first session, I made quite a few walk ups, but watching them back wasn't happy with how I looked side on rather than front on as I stood up. Second session I was happy to fail "falling forward" if the movement looked better. As it was I failed surfing with my hands rather than walking up.Ā
When you're getting frustrated, maybe scale back to "What do you want to improve?" and "What are you ok failing with?". I think this an example of what Luke and Clayton refer to when 'failing forwards'. Thanks to them for that.
What's worked for others?
Anywhere in the southeast suburbs Melbourne where I canĀ get surf skate lessons? Thanks
