Anyone struggling with making the transition from simply gliding across the face of the wave to going straight down the wave to set up for bottom turns? I feel like I'm going back to my beginner days by going straight down. Any advice on how to make this transition? Should I still be angling my takeoffs and look for sections to drop and try bottom turns or initiate bottom turns with all waves? I don't see any videos about this specifically. Thanks in advance!
Great story. Around April of this year, I told my hubby that I’m giving myself until August to get on a FISH. Of course, he thought I was crazy being that I just got back to surfing in April after a 5 year break,
1\\. Last Thursday, I received a notification that I won a Mick Fanning (shark bite not included) Fish through a random drawing!! 🥳🎉👏
2\\. Last night, our neighbor came by to give me his fish. He’s moving out of state and he thought I would love it!! 🥳🎉👏
I’ve been comparing all different fishes, makes and sizes. Now I have a 5’10” and and 7’10” fishes… the decision has been made for me!! I can’t wait to get on these boards!! 🥳🥳
MORAL OF THE STORY? I should have wished for a million bucks!! 😀😀
What are you currently riding? What do you wish to be riding in the near future? And in the distant future?
I’ve streamlined my quiver to include only the boards I love! If I hate it, it’s got to go!
I currently have
2 Walden 9’2” long boards
1 Bing Trimulux 9’2”
Meyerhoffer 8’8” (that hubby is embarrassed to be seen with me) 😂
And now the 2 fishes above.
My Bing is my all time favorite. It feels like it’s part of me. I hope to add a Bing noserider or Takayama In the Pink soon.
Should one always get on the finger tips when practicing walk-ups on land? How does this relate to the water walk-ups?

I’ve missed you guys. It’s been an interesting month, a busy one at that but lots of fun, too! Hubby brought me to Waco for some birthday waves!! A little clip from our Waco surf sessions. I turned 56–ouch!!

Hey Roxy have been meaning to say I thought the positioning of your feet on the mat in the last live stream was really great definitely a huge improvement from the last stream Now transfer to your Bosu
