Usually the biggest reason that you’re not staying in one spot when doing any tricks is either because you’re doing them too slow or you’re leaning too hard on one edge of your board making you zip line across off the wave
So you need to make sure that you are doing the trick faster once you have the general movement down and that you’re not leaning too much to either edge of your bored
It depends on how tall you are and also depends on your size as well for example I’m 6 foot one One a good size for me would be a 36.5 or a 37inch board as an example but I will be making a tutorial very soon giving a detailed guide on buying a bodyboard or stand up board specifically for your liking
@@Xdpi__ If you want you can go in the middle and get a 35.5 inch board if that size is not available I’ll personally would recommend a 36 depending on the tricks that you’re trying you’ll have a good amount of room to land on the board
Hey Flow Prodigy! I've got a quick question, but I'd just like to start by saying that your instructions are phenomenal! My question falls in the wheelhouse of Flowboards, specifically double-nosed bodyboards. I'm a moderately skilled rider (Comfortable in D.K. with the ability to pull off tricks such as D.K. spin redirects, unassisted prone 360s, and most other intermediate level moves) and I currently use a Flowrider Park Extreme 35" Bodyboard. Would a double-nosed board be a good selection for my next board? Would a double-nosed board increase my success rate on spinning moves given that there are two "fronts" to the board? Who would you recommend for taking on a custom project like this (I would assume WCB as they make a quality product, but I just want to be sure)? Also, does your WCB double-nose have a double tail as well? Any answers that you may have would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I’d like to start off by saying thank you so much for your support and I’m glad that you find my videos and instructions helpful. I’ve been riding a double nose WCB bodyboard for a long time now. I found that riding aboard like this made my riding a little easier based off the tricks and combos that I do. When I first started writing the double nose board it did have a weird knowing about it the whole time feeling at first it’s like riding a normal shaped board but backwards the whole time. After a while getting used to how the board feels because it doesn’t matter what direction the board is facing, it made tricks like shuvits and big spins much easier. I would recommend a double nose bodyboard for riders who mainly incorporate shuvits and Big spins into their combos. If those type of tricks aren’t things that you would normally incorporate into your combos then it wouldn’t make much sense to get one.
@@flowprodigy6 I see, I suppose that makes sense. Two follow-up questions then; Would you happen to remember around how much a custom like this would run me, and if I do end up deciding to pursue one, I'm assuming if I were to contact WCB through their provided email, they'd be able to get me all set, right? Thanks again for such a detailed and timely response!
@@NWIRailfan Again thank you so much for your support and I am always happy to help out but in terms of your questions if you contact WCB through their email and request to customize a board with them, yes they will get you fully set up just email them directly and let them know you’re interested in customizing a board they will get back to you and ask you what you want meeting the colors of the board and the size along with also letting them know that you want a double nose board as well if that is what u choose they will fully set you up from there they will take a couple days to get back to you because they are building the board once they finish making it they will email you an invoice meeting an online receipt to pay for it which will be anywhere between $230-$250 and then the board will take about 1 to 2 weeks after you pay the invoice. Please let me know if you have any further questions!!!
@@NWIRailfan also this week I am in the middle of making my next video a full tutorial guide on buying body boards and stand up flowboards as well so stay tuned
@@flowprodigy6 Thank you so much for everything this evening! You’ve been greatly helpful. I will definitely stay tuned for your upload in the coming week!
I can only doing a unassisted prone 360 going right but when i do i get close to wiping out on the side parts because i move so far. Do you know how to do a unassisted prone 360 in one spot?
When it comes to doing a prone 360 it is easier doing it in one place if you’re doing it assisted meaning you’re not carving at all and you’re using your hand to spin yourself. When it comes to unassisted it is actually a lot easier for most people when they carve a little bit back-and-forth first and use that momentum to flick the board to the side and when they start spinning then throwing your body up the board.
Are you saying that you carve across the wave then go for the unassisted 360 and continue going across the wave while spinning? This is a common problem. Think about momentarily pushing the board in front of you before spinning, rather than just leaning to one side. This is pretty visible at @2.45 in the video. You want the board to go closer to the side of the wave than your body ever goes if that makes sense.
best RUclips channel ever I have been trying to learn these for a year and this tutorial makes it so EZ ty bro 🙌🙌🙌🤟
Absolutely that’s why I Made this channel in the first place I love teaching people I’m glad you found my videos helpful
@@flowprodigy6 yes man keep it up and dont stop making videos like these👍👍
Nice videos bro keep up the good work. These wave macines look like so much fun.
Flowrider is a really fun sport to get into you would definitely enjoy it.
Have a question, whenever i do any tricks i dont stay in place but rather i get pushed up the wave. How do i perform tricks and stay in place?

I can do these but I love watching your videos, they are so informative and really help.
Thank you so much I really appreciate the support

what type of bodyboard do you have
I personally have a WCB body board
It also has a double nose edge for big spins
WAIT NO WAY I SAW YOU AT CAMEL BEACH IM NOT EVEN LYING NO WAY!!!
Yeah I don’t just ride and record at Camelback but I’m actually also an employee there as well
