My wife needs to see this so she believes me when I give my reasons for buying new boards
Haha maybe next date night this can be your movie suggestion
Best decision in 8 years of regular surfing: going back to a bigger board. I always wanted to go smaller smaller smaller, and I guess I went to a smaller board too fast. I was catching waves and practicing manoeuvres, but I never was satisfied by my wave count. Then I found a good deal on a 8.2 mini longboard and man, my surfing improved tremendously and so did my wavecount and technique. The best of all, is that it all transitioned to my shortboard surfing too!
Thanks for sharing that Jasper, I'm sure there are many people in similar situations who will benefit from hearing that!
Great video! I just got a new board and I'm glad it is on par with these criteria.
Hope you enjoy it!
Out of all the videos on the internet, this is the only one I got something out from! Great video!
Glad it was helpful!
Under-rated channel.
Thanks for your vids bro.
Keep It Up Champ!
Appreciate it, thanks!
Thanks mate. Good and informative video. Going to get myself 8ft board to start!
Good luck Damian!
great video and great surfing man thank you!
Thanks Giuseppe!
Good stuff man..theres always too much emphasis in the surf tutorial community about progressing to smaller boards but never considering you need the right board for the right wave, small boards on bigger waves, big boards on smaller waves....that big cheap foamie is always gonna have its use on small crowded days...
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.
Great overview! I really liked
Glad you liked it Fabio! Thanks
Hey I recommended your channel to some of my Facebook surf groups in the Great Lakes of Canada. Hope you get some subscribers mate!!
Hi Rick, sorry for the late reply mate, for some reason this has only come through now. Thank you for that, I really appreciate your support. Have a great Christmas!
Cheers for your time,legend
Hope it helps Matthew
i surf with a 9 feed longboard, I feel comfortable with it, where I live (barranco, Lima, Perú) we have small waves so it becomes perfect ... If you can do more videos about longboarding, I will appreciate it ... cheers
Sounds great, what a beautiful place to live!
Great info 👍
Thanks Marty, glad it was helpful!
Great, how you can make turns with very small waves👌👏🏻👍
Can do David
Nice quiver R!!
Thanks Rick, works well for me
Gold!
Thanks!
No problem!
What are your thoughts on the firewire style boards? They claim to be great for all kinds of surf conditions, and pretty buoyant.
I have surfed a few of their designs and have really enjoyed them. What one are you looking at?
Great vids⚓ what do you think about a channel island neckbeard?
I have had the NB 1 and 3, both are fun boards. I liked the NB3 in slightly better waves...
im 5 3 and weight 39 kilos what short board for me that is high performance and im intermediate surfer
I'm 6'1, ~96kg. As a beginner, now I'm using a 9.0ft foamy after months with a sup. I'm struggling a lot trying to paddle as the board feels really wobbly. Would It be my skill level, my weight or maybe adaptation? When I manage to drop riding the wave feels normal though. I appreciate your input.
So many variables, it is hard to say. Given that a 9ft foamie should be pretty buoyant, I would suggest it could be fitness related?
Could also be your paddling technique
I have a question. Im 6,1 and if i buy a long shortboard like 6,4, does that allow me to float better?
Hi Mike, generally speaking yes. Boards with more volume = more buoyancy.
@@TheSurfersJourney thank you!!

Wait s did I not have to start on a long board ?
It is definitely easier to learn on a long board, most people start on one...Some people never get off one though because they enjoy it.
@@TheSurfersJourney i honestly love being on a long board. I want to learn to cross step but I’m having an issue riding down the line. Also thank you so much because you always respond 😭✨🙏🏾.
Epoxy boards don't float more than regular polyester boards. The Archimedean laws are the same for every object in the water it's just in your head 😉. However great video !
Thanks Axel, the way they feel and react is certainly different to poly boards.
Hi Axel, that is not quite true. In comparison, Epoxy boards are generally lighter than their PU boards, so there is less weight to carry, resulting in more boyancy. Its the same thing if you have a 1-litre steel ball vs a 1-litre air balloon. One is going to submerge while the other is not.
you are cool, nice video, but you go a little too fast on some words and i cant understand them...about 10%
Thanks Yasen, I will slow it down a bit in the future 🤙
Thanks! I’m struggling with finding a board. I’m 1,53 and 46 kg. We have small waves in the Netherlands, I just can’t find the board for me 🥹🥹
Best boards for Scheveningen is a longboard for most days, and a midlength or fat fish when it gets good. You can shortboard there, and many do, but wave count goes way down and it can hinder progression
What is your skill level and what kind of surfing would you like to do?
