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!

Be injured a while from surfing, finally getting back, any tips for the top turn? Or actually i should do a deeper bottom turn to reach more the lips?

Hi, I think my problem is that I surf to low in the wave and don’t go to the top sufficiently; any suggestion to improve doing it? Thanks

This is me at progressive turn rights.

I struggle a bit on my backside and really struggled to capture speed on this session.

My feeling is that I’m surfing too flat and thats slowing it down but I dont know how to keep things on rail for such a weak and small wave.

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

I am sidelined for a bit with a broken toe (non-surfing injury), so I've been taking some video of my friend surfing using my phone.

Really has reinforced how the body automatically wants to follow the eyes.  Every single time I looked up to actually see him in the water rather than through the phone screen, the phone tilted up and I was filming the sky.

Really hoping my board will follow my gaze the same way when I look back at the foam on a cutback once I am back in the water!

Going to wait till my follow up dr appt. before I try surfing, but anyone have experience with getting back to surfing after recovering from a broken toe?  Assuming it won't make much difference as long as I don't rush back into it before it fully heals.

Hey OMBE heads,

Ive stiched two videos together here on intermediate lefts at URBNSURF Sydney

The first clip I thought looked nice and the second was less nice.

Trying to figure out why I couldnt get any speed/flow going on the second and what i should do to keep looking nice.

Thanks 🙌

I'd really appreciate any constructive criticism on this video from my surf on Sunday.

One thing I've already noticed is that I need to drive further up the face of the wave after my bottom my bottom turn, but I'd love to hear what else stands out to you and what you think I should focus on for my next few sessions.

Also, I'm working my way through OMBE at the moment. Based on where my surfing is currently at, are there any specific OMBE programmes or modules you'd recommend I focus on?

Thanks a lot!

Any constructive feedback would be more than welcome and gratefully received!

The takeoff wasn’t as smooth as it could’ve been (back foot was scrabbling around) and there was a speed wobble on the second bottom turn from the wave chop…. I feel my hips and shoulders were too parallel and not perpendicular to the wave

Hello everyone! Hope you’re all doing well.

Has anyone had difficulty getting a reply to emails sent to OMBE recently? I first emailed them in late April with a few questions, then followed up again in mid-June, but I still haven’t received a response.

Did you contact them via hi@ombe.co or help@ombe.co, or did you use a different email address?

Thanks in advance for any advice, and wishing you all some great waves! 🤞👌🌊
