This perfectly spoke to me as well. You rock Kales..

1. surf in the upper half of the wave 2. eyes lead the way on turns (look back at the whitewater) 3. open the shoulders (eyes, head, and shoulders lead the turn) (hands act as pivot points) 4. coil, press, release (use your hips) 5. ride the best board (round and thick might be better) 6. slow down 7. think independently, don't follow the crowd

I definitely fall into the trap of rushing, particularly when waiting in a busy line-up and a good wave finally comes my way, I am so excited to get surfing I simply mess up my pop-up and wipe out. So the other day I took your advice and had a peak at a break around the corner from the usual spot, the waves may not have been as good but I got a ton of waves and was really able to relax on the wave and enjoy my surfing, cheers 😊

Maybe you could cover stance, sprinter vs squat etc makes a phenomenal impact

You're a good mate for helping fellow man with skills. Wish you were in CA. I'd take a lesson

This was exactly the tips I’ve been looking for. Love your work

Your tips are making a huge difference in my surfing!! thank you so much! I am def getting into a skateboard to improve gaining speed.

I think after watching this video something clicked in me, thank you so much! everything makes so much sense now!

Parts of this video have been playing in my head while I’ve been surfing lately. Glad I found you

Mate, love the videos. Just binged on a load. Love how you talk of the cold though.... Come over for a surf in Ireland😕. Keep the vids coming my man. They are super helpful!

Great tips and comparison! I need to open up my shoulders more and look back at the white wash when cutting back!

I've been watching your videos for a while now and can I just say you are an excellent teacher. You are positive. You go into detail on issues all surfers from intermediate to advance struggle with. You make it seem possible to advance within the mind while stuck on land. Sometimes you introduce exercises that can be done to improve the issues. Thank you for the amazing content.

great !! need more details on every of these 7 mistakes !! TY !!

Hey mate, I’m a intermediate surfer in sunny QLD. I put in place a couple of your suggestions on this video last weekend. I noticed a big improvement on my performance - it was so good! In particular the rotation of my vision and look to where I want to go. I generated way more speed than ever before. I like your videos and will keep following you for more hints. Thanks legend!

Thanks man that’s great!

I’ve started taking off at more of an angle and REALLY digging in hard and getting up the wave and back down. It’s kinda tough to generate speed on a longboard, but now I can make nearly most sections. Now I just need to translate a lot of this into my midlength and eventually a shortboard with some solid waves.

Great tips! Very relatable! Thanks for the awesome and helpful vid!!

This video is awesome, thanks for the tips!

Awesome video!!! I’ve been really focused on progressing my surfing over the last 2 years and you basically just spoke to everything that I was kinda feeling that I was figuring out. All of these things have completely changed my surfing before the video. Now I can’t wait to put the specifics in and have one of the best sessions of my life!! I can’t wait to watch all the other videos!! You are really great at explaining the physicality of what’s happening!! Yewwwwww🤙🏼 🙏🏼

Hey man, I just wanted to seriously Thankyou. You’ve hugely improved my surfing (at least how it feels!!) in the last few sessions alone, before I used to take off and just gun down the line for a section, easpecially on my forehand. Now, I have your voice in the back of my head saying, ‘ match the speed of the wave’ .. and I’m surfing so much more smooth. Secondly, I’m really thinking about how my board feels, not how I feel on it. Trying to notice the nuances before I buy a new board soon, which will likely be an inferno. Thanks again man.

Would love some more advanced explanation of higher level moves like airs, barrels, roundhouses, snaps and laybacks??? 🙏🏽🙏🏽love the videos👍👌

thanks for the help. i'm an intermidiate surfer just now starting to pop some airs, and i find myself commiting some of the mistakes you talk about. Mainly wanting the wave to adapt to my surfing tecnic instead of the opposite, i'm too energetic on the waves and not waiting makes me not have the speed i requier because i'm not surfing on the pocket. thanks for all your tips, i'll pay more attention to them,

Thanks for the tips Kale. I'm definitely the first one where I get caught at the bottom of the wave and don't get in that power zone to pick up speed. I liked your tip about looking up at the lip as soon as I bottom turn, and following my hand. It helped and I'm trying do that more each time. My boyfriend really liked your tip about using the head and shoulders more on his turns. He was able to pick more speed and better complete his turns. Let us know how we can continue to support you. Gonna try to order your sunblock.

Really well done and very true on all accounts! Bird's Surf SHED certified and approved!

So much good advice here! I’m nudging 50, so we never had KZread and guys like Kale for our surf guidance. Wrong board was my major hindrance for a very long time. It was only 10 years ago that I got appropriately volumed and shaped boards to get me heaps more wave time. My surfing transformed from there. What a waste of decades! Never mind, I’m still stoked and enjoying the experience. I only have a long board for desperate grovel days… I vow to be riding a short board at least until I’m 60, thanks to boards like FW Baked Potato, Helium tech etc. Proud to say one mistake I never made, Surfing with the crowd. I hate crowds. I often turn up to beaches and see the surfers grouped in a swarm (or infestation, as I consider it) and see equivalent waves untouched nearby, so I go to those. After 1/2h or so people usually notice the waves I’m scoring and paddle over, or new arrivals paddle out to join. I even saw this crowd effect in Rio once, whilst there on a work trip. I counted 30 surfers competing for one break (Arpoador on a small day), whilst the same quality waves were only 200m away with only 3 guys. I paddled out, waited my turn, gave way to a guy who didn’t make a wave previous set, to show some respect to the locals, then scored some good fun ones and joined them in a great session. We were whooping each other and having a great time. Thanks for the great content Kale, from a 49yo grom (grom since 16 and loving it).

From Redondo Beach Ca, thanks Kale - as just a regular surfer on a longer board 8-0 I really liked this video especially the part about cutting back by looking back to the whitewater and leading with shoulders.....highly recommend all of your videos!

This was a really good one. The eye thing translates to auto racing, motorcycle racing, and wrestling. Thanks for a great tutorial.

Kales your words are priceless!!. You fixed my forehand surfing i am so stoked. Just had to make larger bottom turn and now i can do massive turns wooooohooo yeeeeewwwwwwwwww so stoked for ever thankful. Yeeew.

Epic!!

Thanks Kale. I learn so much from all of your video tutorials. I have been guilty of doing of all mistakes. Rushing has been my number 1 continued mistake. From your previous videos I’ve been most successful when looking to the top of the wave after popping up & then looking back to the whitewater from top turns . I still need to concentrate on riding more in the top third of the wave. Practicing all the time now on the smoothstar is starting to gives me some flow, from head, arm, body rotation, with lifting & compressing movement.. Great work!! If possible some more smoothstar training drills; linking bottom turns, to top turns, to cutback, to foam re-entry would be fantastic, to know I’m training correctly. Really appreciate your work!! Besides buying your products, I’ll even watch more of the adds. Cheers

The arms! It’s all about the arms! I did one thing Kale talked about in another video and did (what felt like) a searing top turn on my forehand! I was like 😮woah. This is the main thing that was holding me back from linking turns together with proper speed, power and flow on my forehand. Backhand wasn’t a problem. A bit of context, I’ve been a surfer for 25 years and done plenty of top turns before but seems I’ve fudged together my own way of managing which was hit and miss or a bit clunky. Game changer! Cheers Kale 🤠🤙

Best tutorial vids i've seen. I'm guilty at times of the head looking down the line during turns off the lip. Can be a HARD habit to break when you love checking how much spray you throw!! (heaps of people do it) Obviously a head/shoulder rotation during a big gaff is guna throw a bit more water. *Not compressing enough is one of the biggest mistakes I see intermediate/advanced surfers doing

I could stand to get a bit lower definitely also the eyes and open shoulders would help. I'd also like to think I get high on the face of the wave but I've not managed to get myself on film. So who knows on that one. And I've been known to sacrifice technique for a rushed pop up on the first wave and immediately eat it.

Incredible tips Kale! It's a little eerie almost that you're able to analyze my problems with surfing having never seen me surf... Random other note, I've noticed that on longboards, 9 foot and up, most riders don't compress at all when trimming or doing classic longboarding tricks. I imagine this is due to the amount of drive a longboard has and lack of critical turns they do (although some do pretty radical turns). Any thoughts on this?

@KalesBroccoli

4 жыл бұрын

Good observation champ - yes because they’re not exploding into turns they’re just trimming using the impetus of the long board!

Gday, from what i see, longboards work like planks, allowing the riders to freely walk along and back, hang tens etc, handstands, tandem moves, its a unique tradition, carving is more a modern action, but longboards also are more prolific at catching waves, they can take off well on a 6 inch blimp , and follow it all the way to the shore!

I love how skatey it is but I constantly have trouble catching waves. I’m catching them later and trying to angle more but it seems like I can’t get out in front of the white wash before it closes out. Any tips?! Thanks!!

@KalesBroccoli

That’s a big step down. Paddle speed and pop up speed so maybe the board is too smalll?

great tips thanks

Based on experience, Looking back on turns works mostly when the wave is not too vertical yet.

✊Kale, gr8 ! You mentioned torque a few times, and board selection, power to weight ratios, ive developed better mobility on a skateboard, but so much depends on proper board selection, after that the rest is easier, although not less dangerous ! Plus the other key tip ive heard is to get back up the wave asap, ie vertical re-entry, its the max use of the critical section. 👍
