Waco Texas surf Ranch in May 2025. I look very unstable at the top but get my legs under me

Embracing the suck. I now realize that I am more of a beginner than an intermediate when I look at my videos. Putting my ego aside I must get to the fundamentals. this video highlight illustrates a few things I race to the bottom run out of speed and I am surfing sideways

I have enjoyed watching your videos on YouTube and I thought I would ask for some advice to improve my surfing.
