      Brett, would you be interested in coaching people through the internet?

    • @brettbarley
      @brettbarley  5 лет назад +1

      @@MrGottaGo depends on how heavy the wave is, or if you are over reef or sand. Depends whether you NEED to get under the wave, or if it'd be safer to get blown inside some so as to not wear the next one on the head as well.

      @@jhchnc honestly... can touch on barrel riding and late takeoffs, but trying to describe and explain anything else would be irresponsible. my technique in other aspects of surfing could use coaching as well, and i'm not a balanced enough surfer to properly provide insight into other areas of coaching. Honestly... even trying to put into words the barrel riding technique, was a challenge.

    - Jesus dude, there's probably a hundred guys on youtube who have done surfing "tutorials" and there are exactly two that are even remotely worth watching and they are both your barrel riding guides. This must have taken a ton of time to put together and it really shows, it's excellent. Your frame by frame breakdowns are far and away the best analysis of any single waves I've ever seen. It's also super helpful that you don't just explain what you're doing, but what you're avoiding and why.
    - I rarely comment on videos but I felt like I had to show some support! Keep it up! Huge fan of your videography skills on top of your surfing.

    Brett, As I said before, you are one of the most entertaining vloggers out there. I'm a lifelong surfer and am recovering from a hip replacement/femur fracture. Some days I wake up and want nothing to do with anything that reminds me of the surf, and some days I watch your old bits, chomping to get in the surf. I don't think I really need a tutorial, but know it will be helpful when I am released to finally back get in the water. Keep up the great content.

I'd love to see a video about assessing one's ability and limits, the kinds of problems one should work on solving, maybe your thoughts on the kind of conditioning / fitness one should aim for before moving up to a more challenging level. Also, maybe a video on how you developed your own ability to move your feet around the board.
