Looks good 👍

Most importantly, your left arm isn't getting in your way.

You do seem to be a bit back foot heavy, though and you could extend more going up the wave, but it's nice and tidy 🙂

Tom Tebbatt There's two apps, but only this one has much life...

Jerry Do you have any videos?

Coryn Daniel Possibly, but it would be nice to know if we can uninstall it.

It sounds like you're surfing messy beach breaks like I do.

The only real way to deal with this is to be very picky with your wave choice 😕

I'm using a Samsung A52s running Android 14, so I doubt that's the problem.

Is the old OMBE app still working?

When I go into it I get a message telling me to update it, but according to Google play store, I am up to date... 🤔

Following my previous post about finding that I suddenly found I could actually do a pop up on dry land, I wanted to see if I could do it on water.

The conditions weren't great (small, messy, short-period windswell) but there were a few waves to catch and, thankfully, after a couple of false starts, I managed this:

Ok, it's not particularly fluid yet and I was doing it on my 8'2, so I was pushing up off the top of my foot, rather than the shin or knee, but it's a start 🙂

And there's a bit of knee-kissing and coffee cup passing too at the end!
