I've been surfing for 30 years and have never had anybody explain feet positioning on the pop-up as well. Thanks for the tips!

A great tutorial🤙🏼🌈 Thank you brother🎸 What are the surfing possibilities in Salvador?

Background music gets in the way,...Just friendly advice tone it down or have none, people want instructions and advice which you give well, music is ok for surf footage and elevators....

Also, no vocal audio on the right side. So you have to have left earphones bud in to listen

Thankyou. Been an aussie surfer since 6, now 51. Broke my C3/C4 in my neck surfing after doing it for decades. Was paralyzed in the water, have a titanium plate and 4 X 14mm screws in my spine.Learnt to walk again and after 2.5yrs made it back....love surfing again. Your videos are very professional and I am learning from you as you seem to be a good teacher 😃.The breathing you mentioned is very important. Subscribed. 💮🏵️💗🏄🏄🏄🤟🤟🤟🇦🇺

Wow very inspiring story!! So happy you are surfing again! Keep surfing life the way you are, we fall down and stand up stronger! God bless!

Very underrated lesson. It’s taken me literally 20 years to realise my back foot wasn’t far enough back. I grew up in fat weak waves so back foot was always up to get speed and flow. Back foot gotta be on the heal grip to do hi-Po moves.

Awesome thank you. Focusing on fundamentals is so important. I was making rookie mistakes and making bad habits and then I realized I need to go back to fundamentals. It's a big difference.

Thank you, Marcelo! One of the most useful videos out here on the internet!

This was excellent , after 30 years of surfing this has been a game changer / you presented this very well / especially with the board template on the mat.

Will be surfing tomorrow. I usually watch how to videos before going to get at least a bit of confidence 😂 I'll definitely apply this tomorrow! One of the great videos I've seen so far!

By far the best explanation of the pop up , great job

I watched several videos but i can say that this video gave me so much information out positioning of the legs. Excellent content, thank you

Thanks brother!!!! The best pop up and feet position VDO so far!!!! Can’t wait for the next tutorial!!!!

Very informative video, Marcelo you are a great at explaining these tips. Im going to put them to the test for sure

This is just the best ever video I have watched on posiioning of the feet. This has helped me progressso much. Wish you would make some more like this. Thanks, Lea from Australia😊

Your tip about the back foot is the game change for me. I was trying to turn longboard, bending it exactly like you showed til I lose my balance and fall out the board. I'll try to put my back foot more closer to the tail to improve the board turns. Thank you very much, Marcelo!

Great explanation of foot positioning! Thank you

Thanks for the tips, can't wait for more content! I recently started learning how to surf and love how you teach it as a sport with a wholistic approach. Working on the fundamentals in order to improve is what I teach my students in Lacrosse as well so it's awesome to hear it from someone else. I'm making it a personal goal to go to El Salvador and get coached by you, my mom is from El Salvador and as a child I could never visit because she said it was too dangerous. Now that I'm older the beautiful beaches, meeting my family, and getting some surfing lessons sounds way too good to miss. Until then I'll be following your videos and using them to learn!

Great fundamentals 😄 thank you so much 😄

Thank you so much, so productive!

Great video Marcelo thanks. Where did you get the mat from?

I had some issues with the pop up. This video helps a lot!

Very good lesson. I've had huge issues with pearling after stepping down to a smaller board. I am finally getting the hang of it after realizing my body position and weight is too far forward and consciously pop-up a lot further back. Having snowboarded my whole life the natural stance I pop-up into is to have the center of gravity in the middle of the board, with my feet position almost the same distance between the nose and the front foot, as the tail and the back foot. When I first started surfing I mostly used 65-80l boards and got into a bad habit to pop-up into forward heavy position but being so stable it worked anyways. Going down to a 50l board has been a harsh but good lesson.

the painting? thanks !! Go surf!!

The knees position to back foot landing position reference is something I have never heard before. Thanks for sharing that! The hands too far forward is another key element of the pop up that very few online coaches teach, and it is crucial to land your front foot in the center of the string. If you have no room for you leg, your front foot lands on the heel side most of the times. Very very good techniques taught in this video, I will definitely share it around. But please, fix the sound. Music is too loud and I can barely hear you. Nice job man! You got a new subscriber!

Where can I find this practice mat?? Learned a lot from this video!

Great vid…But what mechanics are you using to scoop your feet underneath you? Are you pushing off of one knee, both knees or just driving your front knee through as fast as you can?

Great tutorial! Spot on information, especially about the knee and where the back foot lands. :)

Hey, thanks for your videos. I have a question regarding tip of a toe and ankle position. In 8:40 I can see you land on your toes on your back leg not on your whole sole of a foot. Right now I am training inside so I am wondering if it is not better to land directly on a whole sole instead of toes. I think in water if you jump right on your feet you have more stability. Or? Thanks

excellent tutorial

Thanks bro, really helpfull!

Thank you!

Probably the best pop up video on youtube :)

great tips, i look forward to more of them.. peace out from vanisle

Can you provide a link to the mat your using in this video? Thanks!

Percebi que é uma ótima orientação mesmo sem falar inglês. Só falta uma tradução em português.

Thank you for the video! I had pretty bad technique but I was fit enough (and the waves slow enough) for it to work. I have moved now to somewhere with faster waves and I went down to a 4' 6" board and my bad technique was no longer working.. I spent an hour practicing what you showed and changing my technique. I'm going surfing tomorrow I will let you know if this helped :')

@@marcelocsurf it was DEFINITELY a lot better and I got a few waves despite very messy conditions. I'm going again tomorrow :) One issue I had with this technique is that if I didn't arch my back (putting weight on the back of the board) the tail would life and I didn't have enough room to pull the legs through. So I am drilling this and focusing on my back Thanks for the awesome video

great stuff! Would you say the „jump“ is better than the „chicken wing technique“? lower-end intermediate from Portugal here ;)

Great video. But, your explaining on a short board. Being a 6'0 tall Intermediate surfer, I ride a mid length 6'6. So, I always stand up on the middle of the board. I understand how to go forward to catch more waves and have stability. But, still don't understand how to pop up very far back...

In 61 and (re) starting after 40 years - what surf mat do you use? I’ve never seen anything like this before - thank you SO much

where do you get that matt with all of the positions marked?

Hello! Where can we buy the mat that appears on the miniature of the vid?

Pop up without being on ball of foot. Makes huge difference in perfecting short board pop up.

Very good lesson :) takes years to learn this listen to Marcelo hes epic!

Where did you get the surf mat.

Hey where did you find the carpet with the surf board map

Awesome thxxx...

Donde consigues esa alfombra

The mat you used in the video, would you recommend one practices with it? The price is a little high but I like it so I thought I’d ask if you think it’s worth it. Great video!

Make your own, trace the outline of your board onto a cheap yoga mat with a permanent marker pen, job done👍👍 I did this in the early 70s with a piece of plywood and a carpet offcut and it helped me no end.
