Born in the Netherlands but living in Japan. Start surfing in 2020 at the age of 42. My goal is to get tubed one day.

Don’t look further more up. The lip is above you. If you look up and point your leading hand there you can hit the lip. You will go more vertical. The further to the shoulder you look to the less vertical you go.

I agree with Scott hold the bottom turn longer. Look at the lip to go there. At the cutback also hold it longer. Like Graham said look to the foam. Don’t rush it. And it would be perfect.

Looking at the video both knees go outside. And doing it at home it doesn’t. Will make a video to make sure. Because I think it doesn’t. I think because I have more time and am relaxed. No pressure of missing the wave or other people around.

No idea what pantomime season is 😂. Yeah front arm has to go up, so my back arm can pass the coffee. Totally forgot about it. Thanks for the reply.

So what would be the best exercise to get more extension and my surfing better. On dry land. I don’t have a skate bowl to practice only flat roads.

Benjamin Volzer just came back from Bali. Serangan busy line up. But good waves. Pity my surfing isn’t that good. However I did enjoy it a lot

What a nice wave. Where is it? Bali? Sorry can give you any advice what’s already said. Come I wish I could surf like you on the backside I would be very happy. Just relax is maybe the thing I would say.

What is going to happen with the video feedback? Will OMBE still be the same but we can’t upload video for your feedback anymore?

I am not an expert only surfing for 5 years, but have the feeling you rush your bottom turn. And doing that puts the weight on your back foot. So yes more front on. But I would be happy to be able what you do. Beautiful wave.

Thank you. Will work on it. Think I found the magic word for myself for this. Relax.
