Catabolic Beast: Will try your tip on paddling early for steep waves. But actually I'm a bit suprised since I see a lot of guys doing the exact opposite, sitting close to where wave brakes, doing little to no strokes and just dropping in on the take off since the wave is steep and powerfull enough.

Giuliano Perseu: what is the difference between a traditional thruster fin set and a 5 fin set?
Tank displacement is also done in reverse. Tank holds x liters. Put board in tank secured. Add water. Do maths.
BRING BACK QUESTION TIME WITH HARRY KNIGHT😍😍, its the best stuff
I figured the resort was up and running, which is great news! But I definitely hope you can keep a solid stream of content uploading going forward. This is, by far, my favorite surfing resource and I love having a couple great videos each week.
Use water to calculate volume: Archimedes.
What is the difference between three fin and a five fin because I’ve ordered a new board because I’ve been in a longboard for a while and I think I need a shorter one and it’s five fin but also three cuz you can decide with quick shift on fins
I'm doing a research project on Rodrigo Koxa's 80 foot wave for my school, and I would really appreciate a video on tow-in surfboards. The animated surfing physics series has been very useful by the way!
“Question time” along with “Surfing explained “ were very good! Bring them black, please! 🤙🤙
When riding a big board with to much volume to duck dive, is there a limit on the power of waves you can paddle through using turtle rolls? Would a big enough wave snap the board if it broke on top of it or send you tumbling? How do they get out the back on big wave guns?
What’s the science behind putting your weight forward when catching waves? We sort of do it intuitively, but why and when exactly should it be done?
there was a little detail metioned somewhere by kelly slater, that he is experimenting with quad setup with bigger toe-in angle at rears than at fronts. any more info about that ?

The second question is totally what I want to ask❤️❤️
Great episode, as always! What I find difficult with steeper wave take off is that that my line up is quite crowded, so if you sit too far on the outside, you end up with very few chances to have a go at it, so as a result, I tend to move closer to the peak, with steeper takeoffs and the usual crash as demonstrated on some of the clips you inserted in your presentation! :)
Nice video! Talking about quad fin configuration, what is the difference between positioning the quad rear fins straight or angled toward the nose? Thanks and aloha!
Hi Harry, thanks for awesome videos! i have a question. Do you ever detach the heel of the back foot from the board? Or should it always (if possible) be on the board?
Hi Harry. Love your Q&A videos! I have a question. Every body is different right. Given that men & women have quite different bodies, with our weight/muscle/balance point in a different place, do you see a place for different boards for different body types? Or, do we just adapt to the board? Thanks!
Hi, could you please elaborate on traction pad placement for mid length boards? For example a 6'8" / 40 liter board with typical shortboard shape. Is it true that I should align the inside of the kicker with middle of the thruster fin? Thanks!
Hi i was just wondering after a session earlier in the week, when would it start to become advantageous to be on a “step up” was out on a proper overhead day which over here in the north east of England is about as big as it gets and i just couldn’t get down the waves on my day to day board, i was sitting in the same spot as other people and committed a few times but just wiped out otherwise I’d have just put it down to being to timid/not sitting deep enough.
Hi! I've got a question for you :)
Hi, I am new to surfing and am becoming more comfortable with whitewater pop-ups to the point where I am starting to try unbroken waves but I am not having much of any luck at all I’m catching them.
