Exciting Changes Ahead! ๐ŸŒŠWeโ€™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, weโ€™re thrilled to announce a fresh approach: your submissions will now be reviewed and shared here in the community!Hereโ€™s why weโ€™re embracing this new method:โœ”๏ธ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.โœ”๏ธFlexibility for Clay: With a packed schedule of retreats next year, this setup allows Clay to review submissions remotely during his downtimeโ€”ensuring faster and more consistent feedback.โœ”๏ธEasier Access: Every review and takeaway will be visible to everyone, making it simpler to learn and improve without sifting through past live sessions.โœ”๏ธFocused Feedback: This organized system will help you concentrate on specific areas to improve.๐Ÿ”” A few reminders: โ€ข Submit one video at a time to give everyone a fair chance for feedback. โ€ข Avoid submitting distant or surf-cam footageโ€”Clay needs clear visuals to provide effective, actionable advice.We canโ€™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 weโ€™re so appreciative of this amazing community. ๐Ÿ™P.S. Iโ€™ve added a Google sheet in the comments for tracking your submissions. If youโ€™d like your older footage skipped, simply select โ€œYโ€ in column F. This will indicate youโ€™re uploading newer training footage. If you select โ€œN,โ€ Clay will proceed with reviewing your current submission. Let us know if you have any questions!

I think you need to make a date for the first live of September soon if you are going on a trip?

Day one of the make a wave challenge and well... I did not get to surf today. Work stuff... Been a month of work stuff putting everything else on the back seat so I have been rather unprepared and a lot to catch up with.

Lucky the make a wave challenge allows for any surf related activity in the water, and out so I figured I would at least prepare for the month a bit. So I got the old... old...oooooold wax off the board and made a few reminders for the month to come. I don't remember ever seeing this surfboard so clean and shiny before... I didn't want to put back in the sockย ๐Ÿ˜‚

As for the stickers, arrows are to remind me of feet positioning, the other a coffee cup of course and another to get it up with my hips forward.ย 

On the bright side, the forecast was not surfable for today anyways, after this week, the weekend free up again.

Can someone tell me why it's called the "Oreo biscuit/cookie" technique for catching waves?
I think it works great and use it myself. I just don't understand the name/connection to the Oreo

I canโ€™t believe whatโ€™s coming to TX!!! 6 more wave pools. And one of them is Surf Lakes. Weโ€™ve been to the Waco pool a few times. TX is a 3.5 hr destination for us. Love it!!! So often I think, what new place should we travel to for surfing? Then I see the flight timesโ€ฆ 13 hrs plus? Yikes! So many destinations are off limits for me due to time needed on a plane. Wave pools, to me, are a nice mini surf trip. Pack it all in on one weekend getaway. Especially when the idea of surfing NY in the winter sets in!
