Also in terms of the speed of the pop up. I think when you glide into a wave you have more time then you think. Itā€™s only really on a late take off when you have to react super fast. I would try to focus on the form of the slow one and just do that as fast as you can while keeping the form correct. If your up in one or two seconds I think you should be fine.

Iā€™m no surf expert. But it looks like your slow pop up is good. But your fast one, it seams like both of your feet are hitting the deck at the same time. It looks to me in the fast one you are springing up rather then walking up. To be honest Iā€™m not even sure you need to pop up that fastā€¦

Yes, I would say so. But strangely I find it easier to surf this setting now because thereā€™s more power in the wave. Thereā€™s more sections you can hit and a very very small barrel if your in the right place and make yourself small!

Thanks! That was on the advanced setting in Bristol in the U.K.

Hey Guys,

Thought I would post some content from the wave pool. I remember when I did this bottom turn, I felt on the edge of losing control of it. Very close to falling off. But after looking at the photo after the session I realised its probably the best bottom turn Iā€™ve done. So I suppose it is about getting that balance right between what is a comfortable in terms of control, so you can try something new until that becomes comfortable. Have said that I havenā€™t managed to replicate this turn again! Well not yet anyway šŸ¤£
