Hey everybody
I’ve been back to the wave pool here in Japan a few times and appreciate your feedback as usual. Sorry for the length, I thought showing 2 clips from each back/front would be illustrative.
Wins: focused on slowing down the pop up, looking at the wave face and down the line, (trying to) move up and down the wave, had a lot more fun
Struggles: losing speed, especially on bottom turns, stopping the squat
Question areas:
- on my more significant turns it feels like I dig the back of the board and lose instead of pick up speed, you’ll see this in the first and third clip
- I still feel quite immobile on the board, my upper body movements disjointed
- I kept having the nagging feeling that my front foot wasn’t forward enough, or my feet are too close together, on most rides. should I bring my front foot up more when I stand up?
