Well at 54 im back in the water after 26-28 months out of the water due to a frozen left shoulder, re-occuring knee injury & becouse I was lucky at work, a pinched nerve in my L3-L4 which doesnt help my compressed L4& L5.

Non the less I got back in the water yesterday on my 9’6” long board. In some gentle 1-2ft swell on the Sunny coast. I can happily say that although I have low agility I once again feel the stoke.

I was at the point of selling my boards & moving on but decided to give it another go.

Glad I did so now its time to revist the lessons & get back into the gym & lose the booze/ food gut.

Little rant over😃

If a wave is energy moving through water. How much energy do you tap into when you surf? 10%-100%

Hi all, just started skate surfing and trying things out on a ramp, please let me know what I can do to improve my techniques it would be greatly appreciated 😊🤙🏾 thanks in advance

Merry Christmas Family

I’ve just signed up for a trial 7days.

Before digging further I was just wondering what level I am at and what modules would be best for me to start?!

Soooooo much info and support it’s hard to know where I fit and where to start, or just to go back to basics, reset and undo all my dirty habits.

Is anyone around Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs keen to do surf training in the OMBE style together?

I’m working through the 12-week surf smart program and just finished week 4, so I thought I’d post for a 1/3 way through check in.

I feel like it’s a clean pop up, but I’m embarrassingly stiff. Any advice in loosening up or in general? I feel that I could have built speed better as well. Should I have tried to pump up and down the face or taken a higher line from the takeoff?

Hello everyone! My name is Ryuichi Inoue - feel free to call me ‘Ry’. I’m originally from Japan, and I’m a surfing coach at Surf Lab.

Here’s a bit more about myself ↓

I’ve been learning and training with Clayton for over 10 years, and I’m currently competing on the WSL while coaching at Surf Lab in Currumbin on the Gold Coast. I love traveling and exploring new places, so competing internationally fits perfectly with my lifestyle. I studied a Bachelor of Business on the Gold Coast, and I’ve now completed my studies. I’m ready and waiting for you at the Surf Lab!

I’ll be sharing more through the Surf Lab app and social media, so I hope you’ll follow along.

Here’s my Instagram too👇
