Pat, this is the best breakdown of the bottom turn my man. You rip and your style is sick, surfing since I was six, now 30 and like yourself perfecting it everyday, the feeling of a really good bottom turn is best feeling in the world. Keep it up and I will do my home work. 🤙🙌🇦🇺
Rock on!
That’s a really good video !! Please other videos like that ! backend bottom turns or cutbacks would be amazing
Hi from Aus!
Best frontside bottom turn tutorial I’ve seen. I have much more trouble on frontside than backside strangely. Especially getting back up the wave without bogging the rail. Some coaches say to use back foot pressure while others say focus on twisting and unweighting the board. I’m curious know what you mean by the mini surfboard over the fins which is a nice explanation and definitely how Tom is doing it.
When you make the mini surfboard are you saying that the arm should be in line with the fins? So towards the back of the board? Or should you be reaching towards the front of the board with the mini surfboard arm.
Love that you used Tom Curren as the template . One of those turns in your clip was unreal. He’s pure class.
Bit late for the reply, but yes he's saying keep it in a way that is centering your weight distribution more towards the fins and the inside rail. While decompressing and twisting is equally important, you don't really want to use that same slow jump-like motion that you do while doing sharp, stally bottom turns or pump up the face, but to keep as much weight on your front foot to engage the rail but to keep the front hand back, down low and planted out towards the wave.
This way, you'll have your rail AND fins fully engaged, lots of stability and drive (and style!).
Andy Irons, Rob Machado keep there front arm relaxed down by the knee pretty much all the way through a turn..Style/flow/balance...
This is ridiculous. World record best How To or something
Pat is such a good presenter! How about backside? Would be stoke if you guys keep these coming!
Lets breakdown the backside! Would be interesting to have Pat talk with someone else.. maybe Parker? Stay tuned!
Parker rips!
@@alohavisuals yeah this is the most useful bottom turn tutorial I've ever watched. If you could get Pat to do backside bottom turn that would be incredible.
@@alohavisuals can’t wait!!
@@alohavisuals Bobby.. Pat with Bobby Martinez
Why don’t pro surfers today do the wrap around figure 8 cutbacks like AI
He did them the best on both front and backside. Very stylish surfing. Flow
This is my favorite RUclips channel. Keep them coming!!!!! 😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Could you please help me to find a goofy foot explanation as good as your in regular
Awesome content and tips! Please do one on blowtail revs and how/when to get the freakin front foot to move forward. I cannot for the life of me scrape it up and always end up too far back. I always seem to miss that split second of weightlessness to move it in... 😵🔥
I'll work on that edit in the new year!
I surf T street too! too bad the surf in SC is small rn. This will help me on the waves here for sure 🤙🏽
Absolute mastery, and delivered in a way that can really help any surfer. Thank you! 🙏
the most important video for progressing, as goofyfooter i would hoped backside tips even i know these tips work also for other side
Hey Pat
Happy I have seen this video
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
This is gold
And it makes me happy to watch tutoriel from good surfers
I have exactly the same vision
It’s kind reassuring 😅
“Stand up and take a second to breath and assess….”
Hahahaha! The beach break I surf gives you exactly ZERO seconds to “assess” anything. If you are not up and racing down the line like a mad man, you will simply be left with a wall of water crashing down on your head. 🤷♂️
Paty G great video been surfing LJR and blacks and your right they are the best training grounds for Pro Surfing! Yeeew!!!!!
Shitty waves, check. That's my signature. Let's see how this goes.
Yo Pat great to check you a while back hitting the bturn at Super's.... Maybe talk about your Rodeo flip in that Maldives comp
Thanks pat
Great tips
I find sometimes my bottom turn feels really good and i get insane turns
But other times i feel like i use too kuch front foot.. it really comes down to speed
Sometimes when i have a good face but not enough speed i tend to try to "skate" instead of use the rail..
No substitute for speed in surfing
But ill try this
The most important thing i found is really keeping your back foot way back
Every inch makes a huge difference in that regard
Good lord this tutorial is good
heavy knowledge, appreciate this
hell yea, love the content and pat, keep up the good work!🪤
Top!!!
We need then just for the backside BT 🙂🤙
I will watch it several times and practice. Thanks.
Thanks so much for this lesson. Would you ever do one on back side bottom turns?
This was incredible. This is the most thoughtful legit "how to" I've seen. So many surfers cant/ dont do solid bottom turns.
Did your channel make more of these?
The fate of your ride depends on your first turn and in some cases the best part of your ride.
Oh yeah that's pretty good!!! Hope there is coming more 🙌🏽😎🌊
any maneuver's you wanna learn? let me know and we'll film one!
Front side vertical snaps and round house cutback would be amazing!
I fr keep coming back to this video
Thanks so much! That was super insightful and helpful. Can't wait to get out in the water and try. You've also changed the way I'll watch surf videos from now on. Yew!
Do you have any recommendation for the older generation goofy surfers
👍👍
yeah pat! thats some life changing info right there
Thanks so much! This is a great video. Now I'm really wanting some backside bottom turn wisdom from you guys.
Going to mexico with tanner and dane, maybe I can ask them to give a break down!
@@alohavisuals Mucho mahalo!
Your 0:42 + board looks too wide. Ride a Rusty Blade.
Pure gold! Please do more tutorials
Mini surf board + pet the cat!
This is so helpful. Super sick. Thanks for the Tom C examples!
Patrick is the best
Epic
more videos please
Sick content Pat !
I was trying hard to fix technical issues on my frontside top turns only to realize that I had created some bad habits on my bottom turn that was making it hard for my body to uncoil during my top turns. Now that I have been focusing hard on my bottom turns with these techniques, my top turn feels "unlocked". Thank you.
Fantastic tutorial, thank you!
Thank you 👍
100% mahalo
Key to power surfing imo. Started on 5,9 single fin board and helped back in early 90s.
Great!
Currently rehabbing an ACL reconstruction, and losing my mind not being able to paddle out. Your advice, attitude, and stoke are helping me to not feel like I'm losing all of my progress. Thanks for always being a positive force in the scene.
amazing explaination , nobody could have explained it better ... thank you !
I hi mate,I surfed for ripcurl as part of the seach team right through the nineties, always stayed with Frankie ,on the sth coast of Durban ,spent a week surfing with Tom while there,was so inspirational surfing with him,you've nailed everything you said in this vlog,my surfing improved dramatically, just surfing with him,also managed to get one of his 6'10 pipe boards of him ,shaped by Greg Clough..love your work mate..
