I want to put a skate ramp in my back garden in the UK, do you guys have any suggestions? I've thought about surfskate wave ramps, mini ramps or a bowl like the OMBE one if you guys have any dimensions please?      Anybody else put a ramp in their garden and any thoughts whats better?

Hi.
I've been surfing sporadically for years and guess I am a lower intermediate surfer according to the lines I take.
I am working on the oreo biscuit technique and I have two questions I can't seem to find the answers to:
1) can the technique be used on all kind of waves? I manage to use it on steeper "well-breaking" waves but on fatter and flatter waves I really struggle even when I'm right where they start breaking.
2) Does using the oreo eliminate the need for step up boards on bigger/faster waves? I often see that step-ups (with more foam under the chest) are recommended to get more paddle-power but if I don't need to paddle (much) to get waves that is not needed?

I’m struggling with catching waves on my backhand (I’m goofy foot), especially when it’s steep or dumpy. I’m fine on forehand in any conditions. Help!!

BAIL OR GO?

There are times, you find yourself in a situation where you either have to bail on the wave or just go. Some chose bail. Some didn't have a choice of what they were going to do. So glad I chose GO!! Such a fun wave. Unfortunately, camera cuts off at that point at the surf break to the right and you can't see the rest of the ride.

I think it's clear by my dancing bouncy hearts where I am 😍

Just wanted to share my ride...

Anyone struggling with making the transition from simply gliding across the face of the wave to going straight down the wave to set up for bottom turns?  I feel like I'm going back to my beginner days by going straight down.  Any advice on how to make this transition?  Should I still be angling my takeoffs and look for sections to drop and try bottom turns or initiate bottom turns with all waves?  I don't see any videos about this specifically.  Thanks in advance!
