Hi there, Been trying to get back into surfing over the last few years. I'm starting to get more consistent popup wise (still have off days tho) and to get the hang of compression and extension a bit, which feels really cool. I feel like I could get better at using my arms and getting my top turns a bit higher.

Would love any tips folk might have, keen to keep improving.

I haven't been able to upload, so threw a clip of me surfing on vimeo instead: https://vimeo.com/1085500345/b6b0982cb7?share=copy Huge thanks in advance for taking a look and sharing thoughts here!

Hi all! Hope you are doing well. I was lucky enough to get some footage on my last surf trip. Any feedback or comments would be super appreciated. In particular I find it pretty ticky to generate speed on my backside. Thanks in advance ☺️

For anyone in the UK, Surfers Against Sewage are organising countrywide paddle-out protests to complain about the state of our rivers and seas next Saturday, the 17th of May.

I'm planning to be at the Hayling Island event, look for the guy with long grey hair in a pony tail 🙂

I remember Clayton Nienaber mentioned that white (standard) boards last longer than boards with color. I can't find that specific video, but would anyone be able to explain why? Google hasn't helped me in this endeavor either...

Hey ombe crew ! I just came back from Sydney urbnsurf with some footage. I have been working with all the fantastic coaches at the bowl lab on the GC in the last couple of months and I really switched my surf from flat to almost a full top to bottom, which is incredible! I feel like I’m still needing more work on getting vertical and move my body efficiently! What’s your thoughts ?

Thanks in advance 🤙and big thanks to Jack and Ray for taking me to a different level !

Hi everyone! Any advice on my snap/end turn? I’m pretty happy with my timing, bottom turn, and the initial arm movement, but I’m really struggling to complete the second half of the maneuver. I know I need to stay a bit more compressed, but aside from that, any tips? Really appreciate it!
