I’m getting overly keen here! 😂

Sign of an enticing series! That makes sense and look forward to it when it comes out!

I was excited to see the new 5 lines method videos up- I went to watch them, and it told me my subscription didn’t support it. I have annual membership. I was wondering if there was some extra add on I need to buy to watch these, or if it was just a tech glitch (which happens and is no big deal!). Thanks! 😊

Agreed with Graham Marsden - land based training may be your friend in Hong Kong! I think you self assessed well, and great progress given limted wave access!

That sounds rough.

Impressed you are sticking to it! My goal is to still surf and learn into my 60s, so it’s inspiring to see you push through.

But still, that’s a lot of injuries and pain- hope it give you a break soon!

Looks like you are staying close to the pocket well and using the face!

The coffee cup arms could be a good place as it’s sometimes it’s behind you- but some nice looking turns!

Where’s this wave? 🙂

Depends how close to the pocket of the wave you? More closer to the pocket, less further away!

Graham Marsden fair enough! Many of my friends I ride with ski rather than board so I don’t judge 😉. Either way you can explore the mountain, and you are not picking up bad habits for surfing on skis either!

Graham Marsden you skiing not snowboarding? Lots of people do! The snow season is here in Canada and my angles are soooo positive this season to practice my stance, and I actually like it way more- it’s easier in trees and steeps!! Coffee cup snowboarding!

Fun question! I find learning the condtions fascinating, and that’s an interesting observation- depending on which sand bank/ reef section it’s breaking on for which direction/ size of swell maybe. Clayton’s question is helpful! I notice some breaks I ride, esp beach breaks have shifting peaks with the tide/ swell size, with waves at different positions having different personalities, even on the same day!

I should get a goal! You inspired me! I want to work on land training regularly for when I can’t get out, and may try to do something daily! I also realized I surfed the equivalent of once a weekend per year in the number of surf sessions I did this year, despite not living by the sea, due to surf trips and a hard core schedules on them! I plan to aim for the same! I also want to work on surfing on rail more and taking off deeper! Barrel is the dream one day 😍

Thanks mark cabra that’s helpful! Agreed with Graham below- looks like you are bending/twisting a the back and could bring the coffee cup are forward, so the botsu or stick on a surf skate could help!

Still, some nice trimming!
