- Every surfer wants to ride barrels! Barrels are by far the most enjoyable moments in surfing, but it is not easy to do! There is less technique involved compared to things like airs and laybacks, but learning how to read when the wave will barrel and then learning when to either speed up or stall for that moment is difficult to learn. The best thing to do is to go for as many barrels as possible. Apply these 5 steps that I introduced in this tutorial to speed up the process. Get out there and have fun!

Great post. Still looking for my first barrel. This demystifies it some. Looking forward to some chances this fall as the conditions, and my fitness improve. Recovering from 2nd hip replacement, getting better every session. Keep the vids coming, love 'em.
Thanks. Well get your fitness up and when the waves allow you to then give some barrel riding a go. If you don’t make them in the beginning it’s ok. Just keep practicing until you find the correct line and position for the barrel 🌊
some of those barrels are insane. especially the ones in the cold water. wow wow but great explanation. I've had a couple head dips before but no proper barrels. thanks for sharing some great tips. this will help me a lot I'm sure!
I’m glad you found it helpful!
Thanks for the lesson.
Pleasure brother
Great video. Good job.
Thanks boss
nice video
Thanks. Hope it helps you get some good barrels 🌊
Is board selection less important for these smaller barrels?
The correct board is helpful, especially if you’re pulling into the barrel on the take off. If doing that then you need a board with more rocker and less surface area over the tail. If you get a barrel down the line then it’s not as important as you’re not in a critical section falling into the barrel on the take off while trying to quickly engage the rail.
@@shannonainsliesurf thanks! Also with respect to rocker, would tail rocker be more important than nose rocker? I have trouble catching making the drop into small beach break barrels specifically. The waves come kind of slow but jacks quickly and throws hard and barrels fast down as soon as wave hits inside sandbar. So I’m thinking low entry rocker but more aggressive tail rocker could be better?
@@FluffyAlpaca81 it’s probably more important to have rocket in the nose for a good steep take off into the barrel. But you could also get a board with less rocker but more volume in the nose to get into the wave sooner. Just make sure you don’t have too much volume in the tail as it will be difficult to turn quickly into the barrel and difficult to set the rail and also it could slide out.
@@shannonainsliesurf thx mate
Would you say a wave pool could be a good first option for entry level barrels ?
Yes for sure. It’s more predictable to you can practice setting your line and getting your position and timing right much better than in the ocean where the waves are different and unpredictable 🙌
Getting barreled is something you cant teach. Timing is something that cannot be taught.
Just watch tons of videos, and then go do it. Thats all.
Yep most of it is just time in the water and practicing for sure! But you can teach and guide people what to look for and what to do..this will help them remember those things while they surf and will help speed up the process.
