In this one I’m trying to turn tightly and quickly. Practicing different trajectories on the bottom turn is also a eye opener and allows me to practice the cadence and timing needed when I’m trying to bottom turn into different shaped waves. Clay’s teaching on how type 4 surfing is about picking the line and timing in order to match the wave presented to you, made so much sense. This drill gave me the muscle memory tools to achieve that.

My next rhino to slay is to do better top turn twist turns and not rely on cut back style turns or pivot turns. The problem arises only in the water, dry side drills are not helping yet. But I have a plan….
