Peace, man✌️

You look very stiff and hunched over which I think is stopping you from compressing and extending completely.Try lifting your elbows more to straighten your back and breathe in as you go up, out as you go down.

Will Swait I think you're right. The board is flat and the nose is up in the air, both of which will slow you down.If you turn your back foot so it's at 45 degrees from the nose, this will let you turn your hips to get more front on and stack on the front foot.Once you have that, it will be easier to get on rail.

Something that I've always thought would be helpful would be an OMBE Trouble Shooting chart.   A lot of the stuff in the Lives etc is Clay telling different people the same things eg Positioning for the wave, doing the Oreo take off, looking down the line, stacking on the front foot, keeping the coffee cup arm forward etc.   I've sometimes considered going through the videos and making a list for example:   Problem: I keep missing waves or nose diving on the take off.  Solutions:

1) Look for the Treasure Map [video link]   2) Practice the Oreo take off [video link]   3) Look down the line as you glide [video link]

etc

It's a shame that the Live has had to be cancelled, but hopefully the Op will go well and best wishes for a quick recovery 🤙

That's looking nice, especially the section in the bowl 👍

Next thing I'd suggest is trying to relax the shoulders and push them back so your head stays up and you're not tempted to look at the ground.

Also lift the elbows and you should find it easier to twist through the turns.

Your take off seems good, you glide in and look down the line, but it appears that your back foot is turned at more than 90 degrees from the nose which is causing the poo-man stance.

If you can get that fixed it should help you get front on so you can stack on the front foot with the coffee cup arm forward.

Have a look at the Stick Surfing drills.

Using what Clay calls a "pattern interruptor" to make you concentrate on what your hands and elbows are doing may be helpful.

Cath Gito Sorry, I can't help with that since I've never done it ☹️

I've got a 7'6 Torq Mod Fun, but it's a thruster configuration. What do you mean by "struggle at bending"?
