First thing I'd mention is that you go where you look.

You're looking down instead of along the line, so that's where the board goes.

If you get your head across, you'll engage the rail.

One piece of advice: Stand up! 🙂

You have a good take off, but you're riding the wave like you're sitting in a chair.

Stack on the front foot, back straight, head up and with your body square and you'll find it much easier to compress and extend and look back to the foam.

Try doing some surf skating in a bowl with a stick to get used to being front on.

As you mentioned, you need to get the coffee cup arm forward, as you're leading with your front shoulder instead of being front on.

Also compress and kiss the knees as you approach, then extend as you go up. Look at the Cardboard Slide drills to practice this.

But your twist is fantastic (I'm jealous! 😉)

I think your problem there is the banking itself!

The angle is too shallow to for you to be able to hit it with any speed which is what you need to allow you to lean much more.

Is there anywhere in that park with more of a slope?

The only thing I'd say is that you need to approach more front on.

Your coffee cup arm is out behind you instead of pointing where you want to go.

Still, you've got a great twist and look which is really nice 👍

Emily Brooks me too ☹️

Sebastian Jimenez Regarding the arm, yes, lift the elbow and move it back.

Look at the replays of the Live Chats and you'll see Clay mention it quite a lot.

Also look on YouTube for the Walk up/ pop up series that Clay did, there's loads of good advice there 👍

That looks pretty good 👍

Two things I'd suggest:

1) Shorten your stance a bit by bringing the back foot closer to the front foot.

2) Lift the front arm up and out of the way so you're putting the elbow in your back pocket.

That will help you twist and look back to the foam instead of looking at the nose of the board.

I'd suggest getting a surf skate and practising in a bowl.

There's a lot going on with the arms, but it's not transferring to the board.

Slow things down and turn the hips and shoulders so you can point the arms and look where you want to go.
