Hello, we must first properly position your feet. then you have to play a lot more with the shoulders and paddle switches because it is more difficult to increase curves rowing in the next wave backside. Much leave the paddle side frontside . μPour I generally do my part as follows: - soft or big waves, I still mainly backside paddle side (side so vague). - small waves hollow AND I use it a lot frontside side to mount the board into the rollers. It's much harder to do and I see too many people do just that when they surf cool. It is a mistake in this case because a support on the heels SUP paddle without dosing and look ::: hyper drive. But those who walk paddle in the air: there spankings that are lost In summary: - Same as frontsdie take off unless you look on the other side - once it's gone you spend your paddle side heels. - before the bottom, you place your wing forward at an angle of 90 ° with the latte of your board: your wing must be before you. Your hand up the handle must be very close to your toes hip side (rear). NEVER high arm and elbow in the air. It's horrible and ineffective. - you put your gently sail on the water flat. - as it slows biting into the water, will rotate your shoulders and your torso will turn to face the nose. This is where you have to push on the heels. - more wave and smaller and you want to turn short: the more you have to bend the arm back side heels to reduce the turning radius without reducing canopy. turns For tops: - you have to anticipate more than frontside because the rocker is less aided by the paddle. We play with more body weight. - either you spend your paddle to the other side and it becomes a frontside curve you know. - or you do not and all switches will be done with the shoulders and the weight on the slope . Generally our backsides support are more powerful and less fine. Personally I've always surfed better in the big backside that while a priori contrary frontside. It's a matter of confidence and training. So as it is a bit harder than frontside, your mistakes will jump to the figure. It's good to surf backside to eventually do well but also to better surf frontside. Indeed, in the surf frontside backside committed we are often (almost). Thank you.

GONGSUP - The Flame Ball Surf Company - View topic - How to: change the side paddle surfing / Paddle Switch

Having rowed a few strokes, you must switcher paddle to row across. In surfing, it also happens to have to change the paddle hand. It is indeed preferable; an aesthetic point of view and in terms of the quality of the pipe; . surf with the paddle between the wave and you in a cut back for example, you have to change it out if you want to apply this principle. Keys are: - Do not keep hands paddle - pay attention to the wind that will take in the sails sometimes abruptly in changing hands. - up a little paddle to prevent it from getting caught in the water. - change hands at the low hand because the more you change hands near the center of gravity of the paddle switch is the most rapid. - drag the hands along the shaft including the hand that will take up the handle to always keep in touch and feel when closing the fingers on the handle without the need to watch.

cross stepping on a log? | Surfer Discussion | Surfermag Message Boards

Before the shortboard revolution the most functional maneuver was the nose ride. Well gremie you had to walk up there to get there. Shuffling and hopping was ugly so the cross-step was the most stylish way to get there. Here's the move. Fade your takeoff toward the breaking wave and just as it gets steep stand up and whip a quick turn from the back third of the board. Once the rail of the board connects with the wave, cross-step to the nose to trim for speed. If you go too far away from the curl with that quick burst then cross step back and kick hard on the tail with your back foot (kick stall) this is followed by another cross step to the nose. Now your logging!

Nice Post!!! As far as cross-stepping goes, there are two things I always focus on: take tiny little steps, and keep your knees slightly bent. If you try to take a big step (because you're in a hurry to get to the nose), or if you're stiff-legged, it's hard to do it smoothly and keep your balance. Also, make sure you keep your feet directly over the stringer: if you take a step even a couple inches to the side of the stringer, your board will wobble. Remember, cross-stepping to the nose actually stalls the board: you're moving forward, but your steps move the board backwards. That's part of why it's a really fun thing to do: the walking to the nose helps stall you into the pocket, then when you get to the nose you're in perfect position for a noseride. If you have a longboard skateboard, that's probably the best way to learn how to keep your balance while you do it. Just like a surfboard, cross-stepping on a skateboard slows the board down while you're walking. It really helps your balance a lot. Another thing is to practice cross-stepping in a perfectly straight line. If you have something that could work as a balance beam that's ideal, but just walking a line is good too.

indoboard question for longboarders | Surfer Discussion | Surfermag Message Boards

I have the longer IndoBoard as well, and I can tell ya I find it easier to cross step on my 9'0 than the IndoBoard. It's necessary to "lock in" the tail of the board to the wave, and I can't seem to get locked in on the IndoBoard. However, my 12-year-old can easily cross step and hang 10 off the IndoBoard. Go figure. If you're serious about cross stepping on a long board, you'd be better off getting a 2x4 and putting it in your living room. Don't walk straight forward, but a bit sideways with the back foot coming up and over the front. (Nice easy way to switch stance, too!) Keep your steps fairly small.

Fanatic allwave Fin set up - Stand Up Paddle / SUP - Seabreeze Forums!

colas France 650 Posts Posted 2/11/2013, 7:23 pm        email quote reply My advice for a beginner would just be to use a single 8" - 9" fin, as far forward in the box as possible. Tri fin, thruster, or quad setups are great once you know you to push enough on your legs in your turns to actually push against the side fins. Till then, your turn will be made more by tilting the board on the rail and have the deflected water flow pull the board inside the turn, the fin acting as arrow feathers and turning the boards to follow the hull. In this mode, the fin acts as a pivot, and the single pivot point of the single fin will make the board feel more lively than a cluster of fins that will seem to "block" the board. Note that twin fins work well too, they give both a single pivot point and grip on the rail. So: just go single mate, only go thruster when you begin to really push in turns, you will then feel the single slightly loosing grip in turns, this will be the sign that you are ready for a thruster.

Nose riding

Nose riding  by  colas Thurs, January 28, 2010 - 9:37 p.m. For me, longboard, the declic was when instead of trying to "get high" on the nose, I started to do "bite" the nose into the wave by pressing firmly on the side, and have a feeling " piloting aircraft wing "as if the nose of your board was your hand that you go through the car door of your car and" made ​​the plane. " Technically this means that it is necessary that the nose is good in the steep part of the wave, so quite high, so you have to force the edge to keep it there, even if it does not show the photos. If you let the board will only stall it will get too low, where there is not the energy to carry you, you feel the nose "push water" Look on this picture up in the wave and support on the inner edge, we can see that the nose does not grow water, the lift is given by the edging. The board is in fact almost a right angle to the surface of the water, you should have the impression of being on a ledge near a vertical wall, and not on a skimboard has a flat glide. Driving is very dynamic, it is constantly working to adjust the intake side edge.

Hello, the back foot pressure is an important thing. But most important is to understand that during noserides, the best attitude comes from foot location. The pressure between front foot and back foot must come from the location of your center of gravity, more or less over the front foot. But for the rail pressure, the most important thing is to understand that this pressure is managed by the location of your feet. This means that if you want keep the rail in his line parallel to the wave on a left wave, you must walk on the left side of the center stringer. And when you hang five, you must keep the back foot on the left side of the stringer. Actually we never really walk on the center stringer to go on the nose or come back. Another example: you are on the nose on a left and you have to do a cut back. Your cross steps will cross the stringer line because you will walk from the left side of the stringer on the nose to the right side of the stringer on the tail part of the deck. By this way you can do a very fluid turn. So it is more a problem of location and path of your feet than a problem of pressure ; this combined to a problem of center of gravity. The combination of those 2 elements makes you good or wrong. Good news: it is the easiest thing you can learn on a surfboard. You can train on the floor, on a tree, on the water... And you never need big waves. About the effet of the big 11' fin, it is a second effect. This big fin doesn't change a lot the drive to left or right when you are on the nose. But because it keeps the rail perfectly on its line on the face of the wave, of course it helps a LOT. In fact, the only way to do great noserides is to do them parallel to the wave on a vertical section. If you try them on a flat part of the wave, it is fucked or very short.

Hello, I want to emphasize a crucial point in the decorations and their influence on your surfing. Often think a good decor is that you love. Ok, it's nice a nice board. But the decor has an impact on your performance, even if you are new. Indeed, many of you think that only the central vision account surfing. Out peripheral vision is also seeing greater. Central vision is what you see "directly" is what you are pointing at. Peripheral vision is what is around and in your field of view without being directly charged to your consciousness. This is how I define things for simplicity. Attach an object in a room. The object is central vision, ok. Try to be aware of his surroundings without moving your eyes: it's peripheral vision. specialists noeils not enjoy much but ... In surfing, your peripheral vision is one that allows you to integrate your immediate environment. "View of the corner of my eye." Those who make boxing are well aware that peripheral vision is fundamental to see the future. It is what gives you the information on global attitudes and thus shots in preparation. surf in is the same. Your overall vision is what allows you to see the complexity of the wave as a whole and not only 50cm2 of the lip that you will impact. They are well aware when they charge someone and he appears behind. Seen without watching. Well this is how you analyze your surfing. With peripheral vision, you create a past, a present and a future in your analysis of the wave. Behind the past to the future and center: you in the present. Thus, in particular that you get to set a pace of surfing in perfect agreement with the timing of the wave. But this peripheral vision may be impaired. Surfer avoid going to move the aiming point of your central vision, and therefore any with your peripheral vision! You've probably experienced a break in time, crossing the others. They disrupt your analysis of the wave and its development over time. Well it is the same for a board with an asymmetrical decoration. 's decorations which greatly disturb peripheral vision weaken the correctness of your perception of the surrounding environment. You must set up an entire mental gymnastics to be certain that the axis of your board is the desired example. Trajectory For noserides is obvious. Put a band of decoration on one side only of the board, and walking becomes more complicated later. Marquez third front with a distinct deco than the tail and you instinctively know you're nose on that front third. Peripheral vision works like a machine to travel through time . By focusing on that, you can really see the time surfing otherwise. This is very true in the stages of progression. When we begin, it is an important phenomenon. But also when changing spot. More peripheral vision is stable, we can steer his surfing by central vision and suddenly play on time. We are all agreed that surfing is only a story of respect to time. Figures surfing is possible only if you have time ahead of the wave. This advance is more important the more you can produce figures "modern", ie in extreme shift in time of the wave.

ore on the topic "noserides" viewtopic.php? p = 10104 # p10104 For me was the trigger came when I realized that it is not pressing water flat nose (like a skimboard) that prevented the charging, but it had to be "hovering" forward using the inner rail as an airplane wing or foil in the face of the wave, which is only possible if the face is vertical (top of wave) and not horizontal (bottom wave). Basically'll be taken to the edge in the steep face, not sledging in the valley ...

or example, noseride when you spend SUP surfing (thus removing the paddle) you surrender that he must walk inside the strut. Indeed, SUP paddle is pressed, so as I said above the board is pulled to the wave. It tends to slow down and go up the slope. To offset is shifted supports both feet slightly outward of the lath (right of the board to the left and right in reverse). If we only SUPer his longboard , we did not realize. However, once that throws paddle surf board we see the concern. You should immediately walk right inside the latte if you're too low on the slope, downhill too, and imbalances to the bottom of the slope violent. moment you walk 2cm inside the board, the problem is solved immediately. This is one example, but many bowls to hold small details like that. For analysis, it must be detached from the rest during practice. This requires that everything else is automated and hyper like. Thank you.

Hello, you do everything as usual except that you look at the wave to judge the height of your board in the face. If you are not high enough you support on the inside rail to get where you want. After a few waves you'll take your cues. If you try to go in through the top, you're wrong. Because the goal is to have the nose of the board up but without the ass much higher. Otherwise you'll find yourself in the downhill and the top position in the wave will last quarter of a second. You really put across the board, ie the ass just above the nose. For that you need to take off / Bottom / half turn like rollerblading mid slope (it will slow the board and that it will still go up because the wave advance) / caller trajectory by small internal pressure adjustment. This Simple as that. Awareness. And that's the key of noserides extremes. Thank you.
