Hey guys,
Does anyone has a definied workout routine? I mean like how many repetitions or series, and how many times at a week about each movement?

Hey guys,
I’m new to the community and OMBE, loving it so far! I’ve been working on my walk up and relaxing in the water and the bus stop analogy has done wonders, I’m no longer second guessing myself with positioning.
I just had a question as me and my friends always have arguments about this.
So if you are surfing fat waves all the time can this effect your pop up for when you go into steeper waves?
Or is the problem not actually in the wave but in the pop up itself. I understand a steeper wave is going to give you more lift/push but if you position yourself correctly on a fat wave does it really matter?
Thanks,
Laura
Hey guys! Where does one submit videos for the feedback sessions? The videos are working for me now (no more paywall) but I can’t seem to find where to submit for next month’s review.
Thanks for the help!
Hope this can help the over thinkers and those with high expectations. I almost gave up surfing last year after going to Urbnsurf and falling off at takeoff on nearly every Cruiser or PT wave for a whole weekend. I'm a long-time beginner (more than 10 years) who has improved surf skating more than surfing.
I had two sessions between connecting flights last week and had way more fun going in focusing on what I was ok failing with. After the first session, I made quite a few walk ups, but watching them back wasn't happy with how I looked side on rather than front on as I stood up. Second session I was happy to fail "falling forward" if the movement looked better. As it was I failed surfing with my hands rather than walking up.
When you're getting frustrated, maybe scale back to "What do you want to improve?" and "What are you ok failing with?". I think this an example of what Luke and Clayton refer to when 'failing forwards'. Thanks to them for that.
What's worked for others?
How I feel (hanging out with my family excepted of course :-)
Hello everybody! First time posting! I've been getting to the stage where I feel like I need to get some outside perspective of where my surfing is and what next to work on! I would love to hear any feedback on these waves! (I'm 6ft2 183lb, riding 5ft11 38L keel fin fish!) I put myself at a lower intermediate level and want to start surfing more vertically Yew!
I've been working on my surf skating, trying to get the timing right on the transitions so I can pump for speed.
This is my best effort to date, I'm actually managing to keep it going for almost a minute (the video is shorter!)
Once I've got the timing, I'm hoping to be able to get my head lower.
If anyone has any advice or suggestions on how I can improve things, please do post them here.
PS what's disappointing is that, when I'm on the board, it feels like I'm getting almost to the top of the bank, but when I look at the video, I'm barely getting half way up 🙁

Hey everyone! I got this wave at the wave pool some weeks ago and I hope I could get some feedbacks. I’m seeing that my posture is not so good and wondering what else I should work on to get better. Thanks in advance! Greetings from Brazil!!
I’m new to surfing and surfskating. I am regular on a surfboard but goofy on a skateboard. Is it recommended to try and change one of the stances to match the other?
Fwiw, I’m a type-1 fun surfer. Looking to progress much mostly want to keep it light and chill and spend time with my kid. So if surfskating switch will still give me some basic balance and body awareness, then great. I just don’t want riding switch to be detrimental.
Everyone in here seems so advanced! It’s both intimidating and inspiring!
Hi all! Anyone else can’t see this video? I have access to all the other ones. Thanks for the help :)
