Latest YT video is out. It’s all about being uncomfortable and frustration https://youtu.be/oePXhyuwX0Y?si=REpttXI-WOWAZzyA
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 🙂
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 !
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...
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!
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!
Hi OMBE community, just looking for some tips on how to improve my surfing, cheers!
