Can someone tell me why it's called the "Oreo biscuit/cookie" technique for catching waves?
I think it works great and use it myself. I just don't understand the name/connection to the Oreo

Hey guys !
Board question for a surfer looking for a board to nail « the line 2 » as Clayton say :
Between the CI MID TWIN 6’10 and the boss up 7’0 which board would fit better for waves condition between 2 to 5 ft ?
I’m 5’11 / 190lb and wants to work on my turns

Thanks guys !

Hey guys I have a board question,
I watched the choosing the right board series and I’m still a little confused as to which board I should buy.

Im currently at the upper beginner level riding an 8 foot soft top. I can paddle out the back, position, catch waves and pop up with no problem but im having a real tough time turning the soft top to start cutting across the face of the wave.

I would like to move to something smaller because Id like bottom turns to be easier. Also Id like to invest in a board that im going to use all throughout the intermediate stage where I can eventually start working on turns and surfing the wave from top to bottom.

I surf in south florida most of the time, where we get mainly mushy wind breaks. However I do go to some of the better breaks in centeral and north florida usually around like once a week.

Also Im 5’8” and weigh 200 lbs

Any reccomendations for what kind of board I should buy?

Hello everyone,
I'm reaching out to see if there's anyone from Ipswich/Brisbane who's also learning to surf. I'm quite new to both surfing and skateboarding, and liking these activities so far at this middle age.
I went to surf on Australia Day at Currumbin, which was my second day of surfing journey where I was fortunate enough to meet Shane and Clay. Their tips, the coffee cup and Oreo biscuits, helped me a lot to stand and catch few waves on the day. I came to how about OMBE, and I've subscribed. A huge thanks to Shane and Clay for their friendly and invaluable advice.
Given the considerable distance, the journey to the surf spots feels a bit long, and I believe it would be much more enjoyable and motivational to have a companion for both learning how to surf and surf skate. If anyone is interested in teaming up or if you're on a similar learning path, I'd love to connect and perhaps we can support each other through this learning curve.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
Thanks
Chandan
