Surfing Explained: Ep6 Nose & Tail Shapes

[@tankimarkgraaf]

I was thinking of creating videos just like this cause I could never find the 'science' behind surfing, would love to see a video like this about nose riding!

[@realdarrenhuang]

I never love science this much!

Me too Darren!

If teachers in school taught practical science like this, we would have so many more radical scientists in the world

[@deggo2420]

my teacher made us watch this 😂

Great stuff! I was looking forward to an explanation about rocker.

[@SurfSimply]

Hi Luca, you’ll be happy to hear that I just finished an episode on surfboard rocker. It’ll be episode 8 and released 2 weeks from today!

[@Juvenal9393]

Great guys! Love de graphs and the explanation. What platform do you use to make the graphs?

[@SurfSimply]

Thanks Lucas! I make them within Adobe After Effects.

[@watson3855]

curious as to the program used to make the short animations? are these drawings in quick succession or edited otherwise? either way they look dope, nice work *thumbs up*

[@SurfSimply]

Hi Watson, I make a lot of the components in Adobe Photoshop, then animate within After Effects, and put the whole thing with the audio together in iMovie. Glad you like the videos :)

[@watson3855]

@@SurfSimply thanks for the reply :)

How would you rekon a side cut surfboard would work? Like a snowboard, exept wider.

Thanks a lot guys, this will help me so much when deciding on my first own board. Looking to get a twin fin with around 43-53 litres of volume :D

[@TheFerri1234]

Such great content!!

[@SurfSimply]

Thank you J!

[@johndoe9608]

What about surfboard thickness? Does thickness create drag reducing wave speed, but increase buoyancy (increasing paddle speed)?

[@SurfSimply]

Hi John, that question has been answered in various was in the Question Time series with our coaching director Harry. ua-cam.com/play/PLOCtke92OW_VNmY2TCXytBpF73eYo1oZw.html

[@jaimehagadorn1459]

The kids on the slides with their beards & sunglasses! 🤣🤣🤣

[@andrescerv7]

sharp nose:
+ less frontal drag
+ smoother turns
- higher overall drag
- less buoyancy
- slower paddling
Sharp noses are better for steeper waves (potential energy becomes kinetic energy quicker).
Wide noses are better for smaller waves.
