Hello Ombe community!
I’m back to surfing / skateboarding after 3 years and I’m loving the content of the courses. I’m focusing into surf skating to improve my surfing.
I would love a feedback on my movement here. I’m still feeling tight and not able to go higher on the ramp nor generate enough speed continuously. Any suggestions? (I’m doing the beginner surf skate course)
Thanks guys! :)
Hi all, Any thoughts on the best surf forecast online for East Anglia (UK)? I used to use Magic Seaweed and it was pretty good, but when it moved over to Surfline the forecast never seems to be that close to actual conditions.
Anywhere in the southeast suburbs Melbourne where I can get surf skate lessons? Thanks
Just curious if anyone that has been bowl/ramp skating with their Cx or C5 trucks has switched to riding regular skateboard trucks like Indys or the like.
I've been enjoying my transition skating so much as I've become more comfortable with it but have a new found desire to try some normal skateboarding tricks like Ollie's, maybe grinding a few rails and just utilizing the features of my local park more every time I go.
Recently switched my deck from the Carver Quill, with a 17" wheelbase, to an Andy Anderson Heron deck with my C5s trucks. But the Heron deck does have a 2" shorter wheelbase, which is made even shorter with the reverse kingpin of the C5 front truck.
So now I'm considering throwing some Indy trucks on that to widen that out to the 15" wheelbase the Heron deck has. Was wondering if anyone has switched to standard skateboard trucks and how that compares to the C5s or CX trucks, since we are all probably skating to improve our surfing.
Any thoughts or experiences are welcome as I've never really ridden a normal skateboard truck.
Also for anyone trying out new wheels on their surfskate. The powell peralta dragon wheels are mindblowing amazing. Highly recommend! I don't think I'll ever skate a different wheel after trying these.
Had a Puncture in the bosu. Have repaired it with this vinyl repair kit. You need a vinyl specific repair kit for vinyl because most glues won’t work due to the oil used in vinyl products.
The OMBE bowl in Nicaragua is ready. I’ll be heading over there next week to host x 3 retreats. So excited for this one!!
