Hi G

You extend too early. Trying to rush up from the flats. As the board rolls up create space for it and swing with it.

You rush the up down. There will be an up period then a pause as energy changes and gravity shifts pulling you down. You probably don’t feel this as you rush to timing is out.

Slow is all down feel it and move with it

The more speed you have the more drawn out the bottom turn. You put a lot of power into a pivot point and it’s costing you speed. Simply lean over the rail earlier and hold the turn longer. We just dropped a YT video on this. Go take it look as it addresses all the issues in more depth. Great looking wave. Jealous

Yew stoked. Go gentle at first. You can’t find flow with a hammer

Hold rail turns longer and smoother. More speed longer the turn

Relax. You frozen into a low posture because you are weary of what the board will do but it only responds to you. Move slow and smooth and the board will follow along nicely

Great fun if you surf a point where the design can aid the drive off the bottom and turn off the top. Not great if the board is made for lefts for example and you need to go right

What G said is true. You run from power instead of useing it. Think off the top turn as another take off. Take off at the peak as opposed to midface on the shoulder.
