Absolute light bulb moment from Clay’s new YouTube, lifting at the top of the wave!

Immediately made an impact in the bowl on the carver and can’t wait to try it in the water on Friday πŸ’ͺπŸ€™

Last weeks surf sesh. Didn't have a lot of waves this day... Was a day of the paddle... and duck diving. Seemed the biggest sets were always on my head... Typically. Was fun, and didnt have any expectations because of my fitness levels and the ocean was a bit rough. First wave I still have energy, second wave was after about 1.5 hours and the last was my last wave after roughly 2 hours.

Pop up exposes my level of fitness at the moment, I was almost unable to push myself up for Oreo. Grateful to be out in the water and for the lesson of embracing the suck never the less.

Hi, can anyone recommend a good learn to surf school for a complete beginner (47 year old female) on the Gold Coast. I'm coming for a holiday in late Oct and I'm keen to do private lessons.

Hey Clayton Nienaber

Have you put anything out on asymmetrical boards? I imagine this platform may not be the best for a deep-dive discussion. Maybe better suited if I come on a trip. But I’d love to hear yours and others thoughts on them. Never tried one myself

Any advice on what you should be doing to generate speed to get out of the foam when you get behind it. I do β€œscoots” and pray, but have no idea what the physics supports as an approach. The sooner you catch back up the more time you have to play.
