@@TheSurfersJourney I am still rocking with "ya" man!!! The new channel is fire!!! I miss those mysterious mystique dope shades 😎 you always rocked... Thxxxxxxxx to you and your mate Broccoli my learning curve went into Stark Trek overdrive warp speed and now the wave pocket and unbroken green faces out the back is my new and old best friend... Now I am building a quiver based on all your surfboard recommendations and I legit don't feel like a plateau is anywhere in sight but constant, smooth, steaaadyyy progression... Please keep the fuego 🔥 fire coming dude!!! Also, giving back to VETS and first responders is highly beyond notable, remarkable, and suuuppper higgghhhlyyy respectable!!! I am a lifetime fan dude... You keep posting 📫 and I will "most def" keep watching and rewatching all your content because I learn something new or brush up on things every time... Thanks a milly dude for what you do... Your channel made my surfing newbieness go smoothly without a hitch plus dialing in with my local surf shops Virginia Beach Surf Sessions and Coastal Edge in Virginia Beach, VA!!! Your the man and pleaaase don't retire or go ghost recon anytime soon... Cheeeeeers maaaaateee!!! Your a 100 stand up bloke dude, dude!!!! Cyyyaaaaaa neeexxxt time!!!! 🌴 🏄 🌴

That's where I learned to surf. Went back recently and saw Pete Smith's surf shop had closed.

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you very much!

Hey mate, thank you for your kind feedback, I am stoked to hear that the videos have helped. I'm sure it is, what wetsuit are you wearing in winter?

@@TheSurfersJourney I use a 6/5/4 suit with a hood, 5mm boots and 3mm gloves but even then after a few hours you’re hypothermic in the peak of winter! Honestly mate the videos are superb and you deserve all the recognition that comes your way. I still have a long way to go to get to “the flow” stage but I can actually do most of the manoeuvres thanks solely to your point of view tutorials.

@@NDK--nc5st Nathan Florence was just up in your area, posting it on his channel. You guys have some big, gnarly breaks up there. I had no idea. Cold, and big.

@@wcc1212 yeah he’s a bit further up north than me so he’s getting pounded by the Atlantic Ocean! I’m just the North Sea on the east coast

@@NDK--nc5st --gotcha. Yea, that stuff was big and bad up there.

Hey mate, nice work! It could be something to do with your paddling position and potential lack of core engagement (for more info check out one of my paddling tutorials), are you wearing a wetsuit or anything?

@@TheSurfersJourney I do wear a wetsuit, but thinking of it, its a scuba wetsuit, 3mm all around so maybe a surf wetsuit might be a bit more padded in the chest? since my comment, the pain has subsided to 1 small area, I've surfed once but man it hurts! i had to cut my climbing session short yesterday! ill check out the paddling techniques now, but i think you could be right with the lack of core engagement, cheers for the reply dude

I’ve just started and surfed every day for 7 days without wetsuit in Bali and I have no issue with ribs area. But my toes are skinless! 😂😂

Yeah absolutely, they are great to start learning basic turns and changes of direction.

🙏

As long as you're having fun that's all that matters!

It depends on the wave, so there is no set rule. It all comes down to speed. In some cases you can bottom turn straight from takeoff, however sometimes you need to generate speed first, and then bottom turn.

@@TheSurfersJourney thank you! I’m still figuring out pumping to gain speed, sometimes I sink my nose though

Thanks Dmitry!

If you think there is a chance of hitting someone, then only perform turns that you know you can complete. Stay in control of your board and be aware of those around you.

He did. Leggy or leash...👍

No dropping in

Hope it helps!
