Exciting Changes Ahead! 🌊We’ve restructured our footage review process to make it more beneficial for everyone. While live sessions will be on pause as we adapt to new dynamics with our two candidates, we’re thrilled to announce a fresh approach: your submissions will now be reviewed and shared here in the community!Here’s why we’re embracing this new method:✔️More Engagement: Posting reviews here encourages interaction and brings our quieter members into the conversation. Lives were limiting, as only those free at the time could participate.✔️Flexibility for Clay: With a packed schedule of retreats next year, this setup allows Clay to review submissions remotely during his downtime—ensuring faster and more consistent feedback.✔️Easier Access: Every review and takeaway will be visible to everyone, making it simpler to learn and improve without sifting through past live sessions.✔️Focused Feedback: This organized system will help you concentrate on specific areas to improve.🔔 A few reminders: • Submit one video at a time to give everyone a fair chance for feedback. • Avoid submitting distant or surf-cam footage—Clay needs clear visuals to provide effective, actionable advice.We can’t thank you enough for your support, patience, and understanding as we work through these changes together. Your willingness to adapt and grow with us means the world, and we’re so appreciative of this amazing community. 🙏P.S. I’ve added a Google sheet in the comments for tracking your submissions. If you’d like your older footage skipped, simply select “Y” in column F. This will indicate you’re uploading newer training footage. If you select “N,” Clay will proceed with reviewing your current submission. Let us know if you have any questions!

Sometimes it's nice to see the Pros struggling too. This is typical at one of my local breaks in North Devon, UK. Getting smashed regularly on the inside of a gnarly Beach Break devoid of any obvious Bus Stops 🤣

Hi everyone,

I'm very happy to join this community.

I'm a passionate surfer, but not a very gifted one. Before encountering OMBE and learning from Clay, I blindly imitated what I saw in surfing, trapping myself in line1 for over twenty years. It wasn't until I started learning from Clay that things began to change.

During 2/18-2/28 Ments trip was about reconnecting with myself and feeling connected with the waves. Words cannot fully express the insights I gained. All I can say is that Clay made things make sense, providing a method for the body to feel. Ultimately, I know I have returned to the path I am meant to be on.

I wholeheartedly recommend that everyone learn directly from Clay.

I know It’s not the end,it’s a new chapter and I’ll keep following Clay’s footsteps.

Let’s all improve together🤙🏾

I thought I would drop this here for community comments… it’s 2 different waves taken on the same session. 1 carve was great… the other sucked! …. Why?

Hi all. Just joined and stoked to improve. After some advice on surf skate. I've not long bought an Arbor cruiser but concerned it's not the right shape to help improve/learn on. Thoughts and advice welcome!
