I should add that this session was the first time I have gone left in the pool. My previous session was a right hand wave and as I am reasonably happy with my take off now I decided to move on to Trimming. After about 20 waves I don't think I got on rail at all.

Was it me, the small wave or the board volume. Without any OMBE insights I decided to try a left wave for a change. I found heading down the line difficult, I either surfed or fell off the back of the wave.

But when I played back the video I just thought while I was lying down trying to get behind the surfer in front I actually managed to momentarily get on rail.

Thanks for commenting Graham, Alessandro and Scott I am going to go get on my bosu ball right now.

Do I get on rail while I am trying to get around this young man?

I am struggling trying to trim on this high volume board

I'm not good enough myself to comment. But thanks for submitting the video it is always good to watch and learn from them and the comments of others

Ouch!!!!!!!!

Thanks Rohan that makes perfect sense. I haven't really visualised what my right arm will be doing but yes time to include it in my mind practise. The idea of reaching out to grab the foam is a great way to describe what to do and a good idea to practice reaching around on land. I know a good twisting exercise that might help too. Stand back to a wall, put your left arm in whatever position you want it to be in and reach around as far as you can with the right side of the body. Might even put some tape on the wall as a marking gauge. Cool thanks again Rohan, looking forward to your next video.

You look great Rohan. I have been practising (in my head) that turn back to the froth. I imagine my left hand/arm being in a right angle, the bicep being sort of level with the shoulder and the hand pointing upward. I also imagine it is easier said than done. In reality, to turn left, well let's just say, it doesn't look pretty. You are going great.

Sorry to hear that Nick. Get plenty of rest and I am told Arnica is excellent for inflammation if you are into natural remedies.

Nice idea Graham
