    I never expected timing to be the hardest part of this for my progress. Every session means the timing will be different as well

    dude ive been watching your videos and i just want to say huge ups to you. Over the past seven months ive gone from whiping out trying to run down my board to solid one step drop and getting out to waves. Awesome hobby for a dude whose gf loves the beach!

      I've had similar problems. It came with practice for me but I have no clue what clicked. I would like to see a vid like that too.

    Thank you nice clip! I want know How to get a nice centered solid stance. I immediately stall with a water drop.
    Does "Speedrun" help me learn that stance? I asked a question from a not good wave beach in Japan.

    hi austin i try to train about 2 hours a day and i still can't go any further. I try to gain as much speed as possible but barely 3 seconds later I sink in the water 15 meters from the edge. I watched all the videos concerning the side slip and the monkey crawl but I didn't the impression that it helps me a lot I even bought the same board as you but I took it thicker I can't give myself any answer to my problem

    • @skimbrosza
      @skimbrosza 4 роки тому +3

      fhovhannessian you need to get a fiber glass board for more stiffness or a cabonfiber board which is the best for it and try hydro plane if you can?
