    Lean into that bottom turn.
    Set the rail (surf skate), engage, and hold.
    Learn how to move your body to efficiently move your surfboard.
    Stop pushing heavy on your backfoot. It's doing nothing for your speed or bottom turn, in fact, it's likely just bogging your speed.
    Lean and engage. A surf skateboard gives you the opportunity to feel positions, and to feel movements and how the board (surf skate) responds to your body.
    Have fun, skate safe, and learn how to move your body so it carries over to the surf.

    Thanks for this video Cris! I've bought quite a few of your programs and love how you explain the technical aspects and drills. It's captured a few times in the video, but would love a follow up explaining the transition from a committed bottom turn to either a high line or top turn.

    • @SurfStrengthCoach
      @SurfStrengthCoach  3 года назад +2

      it needs to be done on a wave, as you're dealing with centrifugal forces and starting to surf vertically, or elevating up. a committed bottom turn.. you just hold it depending on what you're then going to do. if a high line, you don't hold the bottom turn long so you can project down the line. if a top turn, you hold the bottom turn and continue the trajectory up the wave face until you start initiating the turn. true surfing isn't always easily replicated on a surf skate

      @@SurfStrengthCoach If you skate on a Really steep street you can do a full bottom turn to top turn. Get a little speed going downhill, do a big bottom turn in the middle of the street and top turn as you get to the edge. I try to balance only on the back trucks as I go through the top turn which is challenging and great balance training. You can work this into carving/slide 360's.

    • @SurfStrengthCoach
      @SurfStrengthCoach  3 года назад +2

      I appreciate that! I simply try to relay movements and biomechanics that make sense to me, and have been validated by the variety of high level surf coaches I've worked with. often it's the simple basics that are most effective. tail whips, slides, and fancy stuff is fun, and gets likes on social media, but it's often not that relevant for most of us that simply want to surf better.

      what do you mean by extension? it's simply standing up straight and elongating the body, unless you're implying something else...?? elaborate please.

    • @MrGreen-kq4ds
      @MrGreen-kq4ds 3 года назад

      ​@@SurfStrengthCoach i noticed that you throw hands in the direction of where u wanna go , e.g when getting out of turns, while transitioning from being low and compressed to standing up and extending. As if your are jumping. I assume u r doing that to gain more speed and move energy in the right direction?
      I started drilling moves on a carver and straggling with generating speed , i.e: i can compress and apply pressure on the rail with hills , but mess up while extending and applying pressure with toes, same problem with exiting turns. I never build enough momentum or gain speed.
      i don't know if that makes any sense) Anyway, thanks for the videos - amazing stuff. I'll just try cardboard surfer.

    Hi Chris, quick question. I used own an old Carver with the previous version of the C7 truck (it was narrower than the current one). I then tried a CX setup and much preferred it. Is the Waterborne adapter comparable to the feel of the CX?

    • @SurfStrengthCoach
      @SurfStrengthCoach  3 года назад

      honestly... I don't know. I haven't compared them side by side ever. if you have CX trucks, just stick with them!
      what I can say is that for the price point the waterborne were of good quality and did feel good.
      my overall preference is still carver

      personally, I prefer a Carver as that is what I'm accustomed to, and I also find them more beneficial for teaching new surfers or those new to skating. if someone knows how to skate and surf well, smoothstars can be a great option as well.
