Nice video. I am 50 years old, have been living in Costa Rica for over 20 years. I ride a short board and always considered myself an above average surfer. A couple years ago I had a sever elbow injury. In the time I have been out of the water I have gained some weight (from 150lbs to about 170lbs now) and had become fairly inactive. After returning to the water I have had a very difficult time popping up. Sometimes getting my front foot stuck or just not getting my feet into proper position. It has become so frustrating I don't even want to surf. I am going to try these techniques and hopefully it helps and I can get my stoke back. Pura Vida!
Dude. Coaches completely forget they can do clapping pushups, they have mobility to tuck the front knee hard up against their chest, their back foot stays sideways (inside of ankle nearly touching the deck), and their hips move sideways (not up too much) to get over the rail opposite to the direction you're going to travel.
It's a strength and flexibility thing when you're getting back into it. Muscle memory to make it easy even when weaker, comes later.
I know, I'm older than you and took a 30 year break. Took a solid year to get back in form.
Strength to your arm. You'll love it.
I know the struggle!
The left hand slightly forward (if regular, going right) seems like a good tip to keep that right forward foot from lagging.
@@fogfog8388, I'm 60 and have been surfing my whole life. I can do endless pushups, pullups, etc.. But I've really become aware of the loss of mobility to bring the knee up to my chest, and it's been very disruptive. I've been working on it, but I really haven't seen much improvement. Very frustrating.
@@xyzct while lying on the floor, face up, pull one knee at a time to the chest, so the lower back de-compresses. or kind of kickboxing training for the lower body strength. i’m 40 and had a knee injury landing an air. now i’m pushing even harder. stay healthy, brothers, love
@@giancarlorebagliati3379, thank you, sir. Yes, I do that now, plus some other hip flexor strengthening exercises. It's been more stubborn than I expected, but I'll keep chiseling at it.
Started surfing at the age of 12 and I am now in my 50"s. I had a hip replacement a year ago and I have found my hips dont allow my old pop up. It is very frustrating to look down the line and your brain knows what to do but your body holds you back. I am going to try some of these tips. Not surfing is not an option and I am not ready for stand up but for you young guys give the older stand up guys a break. Its going to be you one day
Excellent - can not wait to try it out in the surf. Slow and smooth is fast. Pushing up into cobra position and twisting (leaning into the direction you want to go) at the same time - was an eye opener for me. It was so smooth and effortless. My head remained high and I was on my feet in one smooth move! Thanks for sharing!!
So good, I just tried a few variations and I'm blown away by the difference each individual tip made. Nice job working them out and explaining it so well. Thanks!
I love your enthusiasm. Good job.
Thanks for the video! Would love to see demonstrations with these techniques applied to popping up backside!
Wild! I have naturally evolved to use these techniques on my own and now I know why. Excellent breakdown instruction.
right on man, great video, it's definitely nice to hear things explained in different ways!
Thanks for the vid. On a roadtrip in Australia. Going to use this info in the water tomorrow morning.
Great video, great advice. Thanks for making this.
Succinct and very helpful - after watching many demos of the pop-up technique these tips were the most insightful - Grateful !
Extremely helpful video bro. Big Thumbs up. 👍🙏
So many great tips. Great video. I’ll want to try these out in the water, especially staggering hands on the board.
This has been a game changer for me , thank you.
Really good master class… it all makes sense. Looking forward to the next lesson.
Thank you for your fantastic videos. They super helpful and you go straight to the point with so many valuable tips.
Best pop vid Ive seen..Love your work!
Right on with hip flexibility being key. I’m 46 and just spent two days surfing in Costa Rica. Last time I surfed I was 39 and did really well. I spent the first day in CR jamming my back big toe and scraping top of my front foot while trying to pop up because poor hip flexibility. The older you are the more time you should allow for warm up and stretching. Hand placement is huge too, nice tips.
Preach bro.... We appreciate your time for this.
Always my pleasure. Thanks for your support 🤙🏽
Hi, I'm learning the pop-up at 40 years old! your videos are great, the tip of "cheating" a little bit with the hands is really helpful, you should make a playlist out of these videos!
thank you a lot! Already subscribed!
Great tips! I’ve been surfing for a while and never thought to stagger my hands on the board and turn my shoulders.
Always good information. Thanks man
All makes perfect sense ! good advise !
clear and concise, thanks!
I've never done pop ups with my hands on the deck. Always had them gripping the rails. Have kinda dropped out of surfing over the last few years, but been doing it that way for about 50 years and it's always worked for me.
Such good advice! The hand stagger is great, just praciticing at home and it's so noticeable!
Just checked this vid again. Great tutorial for seamless pop ups
Ashtanga Yoga Sun Salutation A&B are worth looking into. I'm 60yrs and still on a short board and have found this series of exercises beneficial for pop ups . These tips are great for milking a little extra out of already learnt techniques. As for the Yoga, take it easy and never push it as it's suppose to be moving meditation.
I just started surfing at 53. Didn’t realize how immobile my hips were, and having issues popping my knees through. Going to definitely use the uneven hands trick, and I like that you’re goofy-footed like me. Thanks!
Brilliant and intuitive!
This was super helpful thank you 🙏
Used to surf pro in California. Always on a sub 6’4” or 5’11” trad fish. Whoops, I turned 71. Hit the surf mat but now I want to kneepaddle an 8’ downwinder foil board. Looks like I need some of your retraining. ❤
I bought a $45 foam beater to practice. I'm going to try these tips.
My 7'3 at 76L should float an elephant 🐘 😅
Brilliant tips!
I’ll Try these tips on my next surf session.
my dude that's exactly my issue you're a very good teacher sir thank you
Thank you from Florida !
im a 48 year old skater just entering into the surfing world.... this is priceless info and i now have loads to work on, thanx !!!!
Good tips for newbies. Practice and strengthen those core muscles.
Thanks for the Info, I'm 63 yr old I surf a 9ft longboard
*Good tutorial right here. The hand placement tip was key, I see a lot of newbies at the beach struggle with that 🔑*
Great experiential reasoning. I will implement this in my training. One detail though: it's not core "strength" so much as core stability and strong hip flexion.
DUDE!!!! I FIGURED IT OUT!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Great tips and video, thanks
Great stuff !
"Small" tips for "Bigger" surfers... love you videos!
Thanks coach!✌️
I love the comparison to snowboarding / skiing, same principal applies to mountain biking. As a older beginner having access to the skills I've been building in other sports is really helpful. Thanks , this video unlocks that experience and will help a bunch.
Well said! Using what you know to short the learning curve. I'm happy to help you John!
Will try this tomorrow!
Watched that brocollli bloke many Times and learnt bupkass. Hey thanks for the vid man. Most appreciated.
great film, thanks
extremely useful! thank you!
awesome video, was gonna ask you if you had any duck dive videos but i already see one in your channel. everytime i duck dive my short board i feel like im not doing enough duck diving and get pushed further back to where i started. stoked to watch your other videos bravo
fantastic video!
Man, such great advice!
I haven’t surfed in almost 20 years. But I surfed a lot when I lived in Ca. I’m moving back to the coast (east )again soon and can’t wait to get back out. Landed on this vid just searching for some good content and I have to say you give some good tips. Great vid
Thank you so much
Thank you!
U R AWESOME
thx u for these vids!!!
I'm taking my first surfing lesson at the age of 59. Bucket list item for me. Enjoy your videos.
thank you!
Thanks Hydro, Imma try this Thursday on Pandawa :)
Hey bro, great content. Have you ever had problems with your back foot? my big toe/ the bone below that sticks out a bit is where I land and I get issues especially with that metatarsal area. Any suggestions? I think my pop is a walk up and I put a lot of pressure on the back foot first
Best instructional video I have seen.
So helpful!!!! 🙏🏽🤙 Mahalo ✌️
Bodyboarder here for 36 years, but I've decided to learn how to surf. I have been learning how to pop up properly, but it gets confusing sometimes. Your videos are always amazing and full of great tips, thank you! I'm going to Hawaii this December, and I'm hoping to get this right 😆!!!
I’m in Waikiki right now, taking my second lesson tomorrow!
When you have learnt to time surf-able waves the hand position placement is just as important as the hand placement pause. I'm sorry if this is not correct lingo🤔 hopefully you have a video on this already. The wave type and suck determine the hand placement pause, the pop-up and then set you up for the drop and bottom turn. I realise this comes through practise but the earlier this is achieved the faster you will become a surfer. Therefore the more fun you will have too!
Best video so far
Thank you
Awesome !
Thank You
I never really thought about where I placed my hands backing them up a little bit does make sense and also changing which ones a little forward to which way I’m going. Also makes sense I just never really thought about it.
Good stuff bro
thanks mate!
Very useful! :)
Nice one bro
thanks man
Cool vid.. How do some of those techniques translate over to the back hand?
Awesome video. I am learing to foil surf. I do know I need to be further forward on the board to keep the foil from lifting and stalling too early. Other than that I think I can use the technique you described since it focuses on popping up quick and getting your weight forward. Do you have any pop up advice specific to surfing on a foil? thanks, Mike.
Dude 20 years of surfing 60 years old still improving.
Your pretty quick on getting up well done👍👍👍👍🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🍺🍺🍺
Very good I approve this message 😂👏👏👍
Thanks!
With the staggered hands and the lean, how do you do that if you are surfing backhand waves? I.E a right hander for a goofy
I would also like to know this
Me too!
I also find getting too far down the line can cause problems. Once I know the waves lining up, I focus on what's in front of me. Catching the wave, getting to my feet .once you get to your feet all good things happen. 🤙
Awesome tips, particularly for front side direction pop up. What’s your hand positioning when you’re going backside to avoid more steps? Cheers 🥂
I wonder this too. Goofy with only (a lot) of rights in Portugal :)
Legit! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
kool stuff man...where did you get that black flooring ?
Amazon. It's a 'Gym Mat'. 6x10 feet I believe
Yes I was wondering same, as a goofy foot it would feel odd to have hand placement opposite to what you did on forehand, on my backhand.
Its the same for both.

This is not how pro surfer's pop up...just watch the Brent Rose video. If you can find a video of this guy actually surfing, great investigative work!
Wrong. some of them just do what this guy is showing in the video. as he says, it really depends on you, flexibility, strength etc.
Nice video I’m an experienced surfer but I can’t get up anymore due to getting sciatica and maybe a little of it being I’m in my fifties. Do you have any tricks to compensate for my lack of flexibility, I miss surfing so much.
This is an awesome video. So I am older and surfed from age 8 to 20, and was really good (in Morocco) then quit for 25 years and back at it now much older. My problem is I scrape the knee or foot when bringing the front foot forward. I am a goofie rider and will try this staggered technique. Thank you for great content. Anything I can do to get that right foot in the right place without scraping it?
Same here.
Bigger steeper waves easier
In my dreams there are arm bone extension surgeries to get that 2” reach back. It’s like our bodies change in basic form as we age.
Ok I'm a lifetime surfer and I'm going to try this. One question; how does hand position change for backside?
I always actually go squarer on my back hand. That is my hands are square, and I as I get up I concentrate on getting my hips and knees facing forward , and bring my rear hand forward as well. Like I’m about to shake hands. This makes me very forward facing, so that I’m not standing with my back to the wave, I’m already able to look at the top of the wave and easily see the next section.
I really concentrate on arching with head up and eyes down the line.
I changed my pop up a lot after doing Chris Mills Perfect pop up program . He’s on you tube .

Hey, can you make a video like this for left dominant? I'm lefty
Graeat videoooo
What if goofy footed but surfing to the right? Do you always stagger hands same way regardless of wave direction.
I want the pop up progression program! I have recovered from full hip replacement. Now I need flexability and strength for my pop up's! I am retiring this year and moving to Costa Rica at the end of the summer. I want to do my dry land training program so I will be ready!!! I want your pop up progression program
That’s great Michael! Retiring in Costa Rica what a dream! A clean pop-up will make it so much sweeter! Here’s all the details morewavesnow.com/schedule
Great video, excellent advice. Just a quick question.......Im regular footed. As I understand it, if Im catching a right, Ill need to put my left hand forward so that I can rotate into my popup. But what if Im catching a left? Do I need to put my right hard more forward?
Watch the video facing a mirror
How do you stagger pop up for the backside?
I am 65 this dude is nails. Hands down a therapeutic maniac. Surfing since 14 but well you know...🌊 🙈
It is a massive honour to help other surfers. Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you! I’m 51 and only have 7 1hr under my belt. Thank you.
