Thanks Ian. My 13yr old son has just got his 1st board. Of course as a mum I want him to stay safe and have fun. We r currently in Ghana and the waves r great. Your video is very helpful.

Best of luck! So happy I can help him learn more! 🤙🏼🙌🏼

If you're getting annoyed buy your leash Well here's just a quick tip: I bought a SUP (Stand Up Paddleboard) leash that I modified for my bodyboard, I wanted the extra length because the board kept pulling in the paddle with the tiny leash I was using. I'm primarily a surfer, but my shoulders have taken a few injuries lately. So paddling with "just arms" can "bring the fire" when I'm surfing. It sucks! So when I can't surf (I hate sitting back and watching others in the water) I bodyboard because I can alternate between two front, two back or all four in the Sprint for the wave. Anyhow.... The coiled SUP leash doesn't pull, and the swivel up on my bicep is long enough that it pushes the leash out of the way with each stroke, but doesn't affect the board at all. Honestly, it's the best thing I ever bought and modified. It tucks under my arm and back. So in the paddle, with the swivel on the right angle... it's like you're not wearing a leash at all. Honestly, do it!

Iain is de maaaaaaan! You have no idea how much we appreciate this

Thanks for your help , been in for the first time this week post operation recovery,totally different from surfing but enjoying the new learning process. Stoked to have found a way back in the water.

Жыл бұрын

I have done something similar to that but I will be doing a lot more this year!

I had a board made by Jimmy Linville (J.L. Designs) out of Oceanside California. I asked him what's the best fins to buy. He said the ones that fit your feet the best. I have 3 pair of Yuccas they have the best drainage and fit me fairly well. I have Da Fin. feel great on my feet and work well however I had to cut additional holes because the drainage system isn't great for those shore breaks. I found myself taking off my fins to get the sand and rock out. I also have a pair of Tribe T2 and Tech 2.

Hey Lain, I love bodyboarding but I have never felt comfortable going in deep enough water where I can't stand. I just feel like the current of each wave will bring me out farther which isn't really true lol but how do I get more comfortable with going out farther to catch more organized waves?

@iaincampbell_

Ай бұрын

You just got to get comfortable by doing it more often. Push yourself to get further out and enjoy the waves. I think getting more comfortable swimming and being able to swim well is a good thing for you…

Does this work with kids? I’ve been learning how to but I don’t have a thick leash, I have the thin one. Does the thin one work if you’re trying to catch medium sized waves?

@iaincampbell_

Жыл бұрын

Thin leash would work but I always suggest staying away from the string leashes… something with strength is always better. And yes it would work with kids 😉

So I got the Stealth board, Spawn, and i also got stealth S2 flippers. Are they good for this sort of thing? cuz idk whats good and whats not.

Beginner surfer looking to get into bodyboarding. Is it hard to catch waves on a bodyboard due to smaller volume? I’ve only rode longboards

@iaincampbell_

Жыл бұрын

Not necessarily. If you have your weight in the correct position, it’s very easy to get onto waves. Just need a slight bit of momentum when paddling into waves and you’re set.

I cannot paddle to save my life without slipping off the board, or pushing myself so far forward that my legs can’t kick properly… I’ve used body boards primarily as a floatation device more than something to actually swim on and have fun with so I’m completely hopeless with using one properly 😅
