Hey beautiful people! Got a great OMBE story to share with you all! 😉
Despite the fact that my regular board is under repaid, and the massive wind we had today, I decided to go surfing today! And I am so glad I did! Was the best breakthrough moment for me ! And it’s all because of OMBE ✌️
As I said my board is getting fixed so I used a shorter board which I got as a gift, fish board, 6’1, 35 litres. I usually surf a 7’4, 56 litres. So pretty big difference ! 🤪
As I walked on the beach to the surf spot I saw the surfers from the beach and I thought this could be me, I could be doing that too!
And guess what?! I managed to catch waves, stand up on the fish board and even felt the board going on rails for the first time !!! It was sooo amazing the feeling on carving the water on the board! Wow! I can see the potential! 🙂
My short board was going so fast, I could only pop up once today, I had to hard time coordinate all the movements with so little time and so much speed! 💨
So I just watched the board course which is absolutely fantastic! And I now know the fish Board really picks up on speed!🤯
Now I may want to get a mid length board, lighter and rounder to work my turns, so that I can get on rails 🚃!
I just found this board for sake at the local surf shop where I got my board fixed. It is a 7’0 board with 50 litres volume. Round tail. Round nose. Looks pretty good! It’s locally made so the shaper knows the local waves.
Any tips to help me decide if this is the right move? 🙏
Thanks for everything!
