As a great lakes surfer, ahhhhhh, I can relate. My trips to the ocean have been such an eye opener. Definitely believe in getting great waves as often as you can swing it. Good video!
Thanks man… yes I learned to surf in messy waves… and there is an art to it for sure… and fun for sure, but as far as improving faster.. good conditions are a must🤙🤙
yea ya gotta get decent waves. where I am in the UK waves are not great alot of the time and can be quite unpreditctable. The people who get the chance to surf abroad tend to come back much better surfers
Hey mate, Small point of feedback, your popup really needs work. You seem to popup with your front foot almost pointed straight towards the beach. A few pointers Have you tried staggering your hands? It creates almost 50% more room for your legs to travel through, watch the video of hydromind called: Pop Up On Your Surfboard 2X Faster Have you worked on your hip internal rotation? As in, stretching the hip internal rotation 4x a week for about 1-2minutes for a period of 2-3 months? This pretty much fixed my issue, I am literally instantly in position with my back foot perfectly positioned as well as my front foot not point towards the beach. Good exercise for hip internal rotation on youtube is: powerfull banded hip mobilization. I looked at a few videos from years back and this is holding you back as a surfer man, you can progress so much by working on this, I know because I was in EXACTLY the same spot as you!! It will keep your joints healthy as well as you pass into old age!!!
Thanks for the feedback. I focused on it a while back and had some results, now I feel like I no longer focus on it and the lead foot lands mostly 45 degrees between the rail and the nose. Sound advice, and thank you for your concern🤙 and thanks for your stoke
