  • If you consider how to surf, you can't go past the pop up, the take off; it's one of the most searched topics for beginners and intermediates to improve their surfing.
    I've seen some very common threads in this area and I'll cover three of them in today's video.

    At 56 “popping” up is a memory. Happy to still be “getting up”🏄‍♂️

  • @wakeworm80
    @wakeworm80 3 роки тому +134

    You kind of touched on it now but one thing that has made my pop up way more consistent is the idea of pushing my board under my feet as opposed to 'popping up'' on the board. Might be psychological but the emphasis on pushing down ensures that I'm directly on top of my board rather than being slightly off axis.

      "pushing board" has another important effect. That is slightly moving the board to adjust the reaction of the wave so that your body is not compromised when popping up.

    As an idea bro, tackle the subject of common injury caused by surfing (shoulder impingement, golfer elbow, knew etc...) so people are aware of what they need to do outside the surf to prevent those injuries which can keep you out of water for so long. Or tips to release pain when it s too late.

    This video is exactly what I needed! Thank you! I am so keen to get out and try these tips. I’ve finally figured how to remain calm and do long deep paddles which is helping sooo much. Before, I was paddling like a maniac and only doing short, shallow paddles (basically I windmilling my arms like a psycho)... as you can imagine I was barely catching any waves and had no time to look around and check my positioning.

    Everything you have said has basically reignited with how I’ve approached learning to surf. I’ve trained BJJ for years and our fundamental drills are done from day 1 right up until now 15 yrs later every time we do class. Fundamentals are 🔑. So I prioritised paddling and having a good feel for the board and controlling my board just on flat days and having a connection with my board, this also helped develop some paddle fitness, and on and on. I have friends who won’t go out if it’s flat, not even to paddle. Now I’m super confident in paddling and have far more success in catching waves because my better controlled paddling gives me more time to concentrate on popping up. Really loving the learning of the fundamentals.

    Love your content it has really helped put Me back in the game after 20 plus years. I'm back on My short board it is so fun to ride. I do flat water paddles twice a week for about an hour on a SUP. As it's flat on My side of the island (Vancouver). I like to do lots of push up's along the way and try to keep a constant banana shape. My pop up's are back on and it's fun to surf again. I look forward to giving your exercises a go.

    When I noticed that adding a last strong extra stroke and pushing down with my chest in this last stroke just before I pop up, this REALLY helped me. You can see it at 5:20 how just before popping up he pushes the board down with his chest :)

    @RickVonSloneker 3 роки тому +4

    Great video Kale! One thing you may want to discuss in a future tutorial is the best technique for a quick turn, especially on a longboard. Facing the wave is definitely correct, but I can tell you that as a beginner it's slightly terrifying until you get good at the pivot. (And the bigger the board the harder it is to do.)

    Thanks. It seems obvious that doing on land exercises for strengthening helps you when you get in the water. One of my many problems is that I really don’t prepare in advance on land. I just show up at the beach a few times a summer and think I can surf. I still enjoy it though but my progress is slow.

    Claymation pop-ups are interesting and needed after having both hips replaced. It took about a year to do pop-ups again and then I tore a rotator cuff or maybe two :-)

      @jimmccarley9609 Рік тому

      I just had my left hip replaced in April. The right was done in June of 2020. I'm 60. Arm/ shoulder pain for me is from muscle imbalance, from too much paddling. I have treated this successfully with a training band doing inward, and outward rotations of the arm at waist level. ua-cam.com/video/PVdgjHqAes8/v-deo.html

    Hey Kale love the videos and all the tips, thanks for all the content! Had a quick question regarding my front knee coming passed the outside of my forearm when popping up rather than under my chest, are there any areas or stretches on land I can work on to get my knee under my chest like the jack knife you mentioned? It doesn't affect my surfing much in terms of catching waves but from a technique perspective, I would like to correct it. I'm able to do it on land but not in the water from footage I have seen/taken... Thanks!
