Darren DeMatas It's a bit dependent on the size of the wave, the bigger and slower the wave, the more time you have to catch it, glide and set the rail as you look down the line before you walk up.

On a small or steep wave, you're probably going to have to be quicker before the board nose dives.

I wish that was possible ☹️

At least conditions are looking nice in the next few hours here... 🤞

Giulio Bamonte Glad to see you're getting the take off nailed 👍

I was just thinking that you needed to lift the elbow, but I see you know that 🙂 (also, of course, it would help you twist at the end instead of leaning which made you fall 😉)

It's all just a matter of practice and getting the muscle memory...

Yew! 🤙

Emily Brooks Unfortunately the waves were so small I was in chest deep water at most and there wasn't anything *to* duck dive ☹️

Two (linked) things I'd suggest working on:

1) Lift your front arm and, as Clay says, "put your elbow in your back pocket" which will help you to do...

2) Don't just stare down the line, look back at the foam 👍

You look pretty relaxed, though, which is good 🙂

Maria Molè I drove home and went back to sleep 😴

Mark Hind A good explanation and it's great to hear you managed to overcome your confidence issues and get some nice waves 👍

Your video looks good, I'd suggest lifting your elbows and extending more as you appear to be staying compressed most of the time 🙂
