Any landlocked surfers out there heading to any of the OMBE retreats coming up? I'm stoked to be headed to the March 17-22 in Popoyo. How are you prepping for the trip?
Plenty of room for improvement in technique and video quality but over all psyched about this turn.Β Probably surfing a little flat, but I was happy with the line, not digging a rail and flopping straight to my back (as has happened many times), and passing the coffee toward the foam.Β Work in progress but starting to feel a lot better.
Hi ππ½
Are the Mentawais Boat Trips 2025 advertised here for May/June Sep/Oct already fully booked? Or where can I find more info?

Hey My name is Koko, I'm pretty new to OMBE and was shopping around BOSU ball. I found 2 BOSU ball in my new gym Palm Beach aquatic centre. If anyone use the gym (or any gym have BOSU? I don't know) please join me to practice!
Hi Jeremy, appreciate the support. Thanks! Greetings Dennis
Clayton Nienaber I am starting to hit my forehand carves with more consistency and I think the biggest change has been going for the turn early in the wave... take off, bottom turn, forehand carve... versus trimming down the line building speed and trying to cut back from the shoulder of the wave.
I almost always bog the rail when initiating the cutback on the flatter shoulder, but this is much less of an issue when carving more in the pocket.
Does turning in the steeper part of the wave make it less likely to bog the rail since there is less water in the way?
Hello guys
I started surfing in September 2024, obviously fell in love with it !
Currently in Indo at the moment for a surf trip, I have this video of me, my best wave of the dayβ¦
A lot to fix obviously, nothing more humbling then to see yourself on video, in my mind I was riping haha.
Iβve noticed that Iβm using my arms pretty badly, my butt also is sticking out, way to much.
Need to understand how to use the energy of the wave to trim down the line, which I was trying to do while pumping badly πβ¦
Do you have some tips to help me with that please ? Obviously gonna take some time but Iβm working on it !
Thx π€
Hello guys, I'm Γlvaro from Peru, and I started learning to surf 8 months ago. I usually surfed twice a month, but now I'm in the Gold Coast practicing three times a week. However, I'm struggling to improve.
I think I'm pretty bad, and maybe I can't get better because I'm using this board to practice. The reason is that my car is a Suzuki Alto, a small one, so I can't bring my other board, which is a 6'10"βthough maybe it's still not long enough. Anyway, I'm not sure how to improve with what I have since I can't make any changes for now. I'm living in Surfers Paradise. Do you have any suggestions on how to get better using this board?
P.S. If anyone is living near Surfers or in the Gold Coast, is also learning, or wants a Padawan, let's connect! π€π»
