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!

Hi! I have been surfing natural for a couple of months pretty good at popping up on a 6’10 board and can turn along the wave a bit - just bought a surf skate and I am definitely goofy should I switch my surfing stance before it’s too ingrained?

Hello, is there supposed to be an email sent so I can send in my video of my surfing for analysis in the group meeting every month? Am I missing something? thanks in advance.

Ombe are doing a breath enhancement course with these guys. They are the people who helped coach Mick Fanning to a world title. It’s on the 14th Feb on the Gold Coast. Only 5 more spots available

Jeremy Dean  I'm just wondering if the Local Groups (eg UK Surfers, North Devon Surfers etc) are going to be carried over to here?

I connect to the OMBE platform(s) through the desktop web interface. When on the new train.ombe.co/community platform I see only the ombe-community and ombe-updates areas but nothing explicitly saying "insider".

I believe that I'm still an  Insider so should I be seeing more content on the new platform?  🤔

This weekend I accomplished to not only paddle out with some of Victorias best surfers into 8ft+ surf, but also comfortably ride many of the waves.

Its taken two years to create and fine tune new surfing techniques thanks to OMBE.

Its been a hell of a journey with major knee injuries at Ulus, lower back and wrist injuries from learning to skate and freezing my ass off in the pool during the cooler months. However, its all been worth it 😀

Thanks to the team at OMBE and everyone in this community for your continuous support and good nature. Keep having fun coaching and learning, enjoy your next session surfing and I wish you all the best in progressing. 🙏😃

A little clip of the surf attached for your enjoyment. Best I can say for location is west coast.

Is it possible to get an alternative Display Skin for these Forums?

I find white text on a black background rather difficult to read and it would be much easier if there was an option to switch to black text/ white background.

Thanks.

Hi guys I’m a beginner/low intermediate & am really finding it click when doing the Oreo and finding the shoulder… however at my local surf spot a lot of other surfers manage to get on full slow rising waves even on short boards they seem to be paddling quite hard and kicking to assist and have got their chin further down than I’d expect based on what I’m learning here… are there any teaching resources on riding different types of conditions or wave like dumpy/close outs???

Been trying the Bosu surfing. Looking at the video I'm not sure my range of motions are in line with the surf movements including coffee cup. Can anyone give me some feedback on the video? Cheers, Mark
