Well done Amy. Hopefully catch you at the wave soon. Thanks for the video Clay.

Think you have it …’ That shuts the whole thing down and makes it difficult to properly pass the coffee, look at back at the foam, etc.’ As said by yourself and others.

When I mess a cutback up it’s usually this. Bend the legs, not hinge at the waist.

That looks a fun board. What’s the bottom shape?

Pretty sure people who crowdfunded the Bristol wave got cheap rates. If you’re staying in London might be worth investigating.

There are plenty of good breaks on the south coast if you bother to look. Every dog has its day.

However the main breaks are generally fickle and crowded when on. The not so well spots are closely guarded.

For instance the witts, about 1hr 40 from London. can be great. It has many peaks along the beach so can handle the 200+ surfers, paddle boards etc. but you can catch it with only a few out..

There are a few members based in London. Not sure where they go to surf but if she can get in contact with them ( maybe viva the old app) could rent a car and head to the south coast breaks. There is the London board riders club but not sure how good that is now ( they used to do trips in whoever had a car). There are plans for a Wavepool to be built in London by the same people who run the wave in Bristol but I think that at least a couple of years away.

Great content, thanks. Unfortunately have the scars to prove that taking small waves over a reef is not a good idea! If it’s a high tide break that exposes the reef at low tide, you can learn a lot by having a walk around when the tide is out.

So it is 50% off for same day surfs as long as you have joined the wave Community.

Agree with Coryn that the intermediate takeoff is like paddling in on the shoulder.

The advanced setting seem pretty much the same to me as it used to be, although now you could get away with not doing a cut back and I think the wave held it shape slightly better as it moved down the line.
