This is what I love about the surfskating community. So cool to see skaters from all over the world with a variety of different experiences and backgrounds helping each other out. Keep up the good work, guys!
Yes I think that’s exactly what we’re all should be doing 🤙🏽 linking up and be the big family we’re supposed to be ❤️
Thank you so much for your positive vibes and feedback. Nothing but love 🙌🏼
The infamous Bethany O'Hoyt..)
Couldn't agree more! This vibe instantly caught me so I started surfskating and it's the best decision I've ever made! I love this supportive community that I never found elsewhere. I'm so grateful that all you people sharing your love, thoughts and experience! have a nice day y'all ☀️
@@thehermitessandthedog2966 wow thank you for your kind words 🙌🏼 🙏🏼 I also feel exactly the same way about our global community in surfskating 🤙🏽
Keep skating and shredding the streets :)
What a synchronicity with u n steve, thanks for doing this n sharing 💕
Thank you for watching :)
Excellent analysis! Thank you for sharing your views and tips on how to improve the flow.
Thanks a bunch for that feedback and your kind words 🙌🏼 they are really appreciated 🙏🏼
Great!!! There’s a lot of us that are either learning techniques on flat or are now moving into parks and bowls for the next steps. I really love that you showed where Steve and a lot of us are now and how we can go further in progress.
thank you so much for that feedback Joe :)
I agree - surfskating is such a cool thing and after a while the Progression to the park and bowl comes quotes naturally that one wants to experience new things :)
I hope you’re doing well, and if you ever have a question or need some help - please feel free to contact me 🙌🏼
Thanks Chris, exactly what i was looking for !
thank you - always happy to help. so knowing that someone finds value in it makes me super happy 🙌🏼
Amazing video. Really helpful .thank you so much for sharing and helping people who want to improve their movements. won another follower.
Wow, thanks a lot for your feedback 🙌🏼 if you ever want one of your own videos analyzed let me know, and we will set it up =)
Thanks, Chris. This was helpful.
Awesome 😎
Thanks for the feedback. Always the best when my videos are able to help someone out.
Keep shredding and progressing 🤙
Great video! Can’t wait until part 2 (next coffee is on me!)
thank you so much, I also just saw that coffee ☕️ coming in - and let me say that I am extremely grateful for your support 🙌🏼
part 2 will probably not be coming, as it seems that Stephe is happy with his progress for now. so until he hits another road block, this is done ✅
unless you would like to submit one of your own clips for analysis by me and become the 2nd part :)
This is great!! Thank you.. just got my first surfskate(waterborne conversion) to help my surfing.. These videos really help!! Love the collaboration!! Keep the Stoke going!!
Thank you for your friendly words and taking the time to type them out :)
And congrats on your new surfkskate 🙌🏼
I think skating in the bowl is one of the best practices when it comes to better performance on the surfboard 🏄
Is there any surfskate tutorial you could think of, that still is not on UA-cam or not to the level you would like it? Always looking to make another good tutorial-but don’t know what should be next :)
Mein Abo hast du! Danke für deine Arbeit! 😊🤙🏼
Ich danke dir für deine Worte und dein Abo 🙏🏼 immer wieder eine Freude zu wissen, dass die “Hilfe” wirklich bei jemandem ankommt, und ich nicht bloß videos für den UA-cam source Code produziere :Dd
Thanks, Chris, have a great day!
Wow thanks for the positive energy!! Hope you’re having a great day too!!!
Excellent !! You get another suscriber
Thank you brother!! If I can ever help you with a specific video - let me know 🤙🏽
Super 👌
Thank you my friend!!!
Good Tipps and pointers plus your humour is so German it's hilarious :)
thank you for your kind words 🙌🏼 It really means a lot to me =)
Wow thanks man, great work. I'm feeling I'm losing a lot of speed during these turns, I'll try to do it like this tomorrow hehe :)
That's awesome to hear - let me know if it works for you =) otherwise if you want some of your clips looked at and analyzed by me, I'm more than happy to do that for you. For free of course =)
I literally waited for this, since you hinted at it on your instagram account 👋
Wow thank you :)
I hope this is helpful to you as well!!
Wunderbar! Chris I think you’ve hit on the perfect formula for surfskate tutorial/coaching. I’ve not seen this style of analysis or tutorial from any other channel. Have you considered offering private virtual video analysis & coaching services? I think there might be something to that idea! Bought you a coffee, hope it helps for the making of part 2. Simon from Singapore.
Hey Simon, I did briefly think about it, but thought there wasn't a big market for it. But now with you suggesting that I might add that as a purchasable option/extra to my "BuyMeACoffee" page.
Would you care to have one of your videos analyzed by me? Of course for free, it'll only go down as a UA-cam video in that case 🤙🏼
Also massive thanks for the coffee ☕️ I really really appreciate the hell out of it ❤️
Agreed. Would love to see lots more bowl tutorials from you, Chris.
1st time in a skatepark today on my carver CX, in the bowl i kept loosing momentum, this vid is what i need. thank you. Subed.
Oh wow that‘s awesome!! Happy to know this video was helpful to you. if there is anything else that I didn’t answer, or where you might have a specific question, please let me know :)
I will try my best to help you and answer.
As I am a beginner, it helps a lot.
I’m happy to be of help. If I can ever help you personally with something - please let me know :)
This translates so well to surf. If you wants speed and drive you draw the turn out out and hit the apex to set you up for the next section.
Very true. It is the biggest reason, why I think bowl skating is one of the best surf practices outside of the water to familiarize the body with the movement
Thanks for the analysis Chris. Can you tell me which tracks are you using in this video in the Yow board ?
thank you for watching and being here 🙏🏼 I’m usually always skating my Carver CX4 trucks, and so I was also skating these in this video :)
Haha, I thought Steve's skating was pretty good! Love his channel & his honest, down to earth style! But I'm sure he'll appreciate your tips & pointers Chris, great video, loving your content! :)
Yes he’s gotten to a super good level pretty fast. But he asked me to do this, just when I had the idea of doing it rogue :D
I’m curious now to see his “answer-UA-cam-video” in response to show if my tips were able to help or not 🤷🏼♂️
Good video, thanks. Is that a cx carver truck you’re using. I have a c7, but told that a cx might be better for this type of riding. Or will it not make too much difference to a relatively new surf-skater?
Yes those are the CX trucks :) well I’d say especially for this kind of skating the CX I suited a lot better.
Mostly it is more stable so I think as a beginner you’d even benefit even more.
In the flats you won’t be able to make as tight turns as on the C7 truck anymore however :) there are pros and cons to all things
Can you do a video on backside transition carving, and how it is different from frontside? Particularly about weight distribution. I feel like I stall to much st the top of the arc and sometimes I shift my weight to far forward causing the front truck to turn in too sharply resulting in a sudden stop. Thanks for the content.
sorry for taking so long to see your comment. a backside flow video is on the plan - currently thiugh there is constant rain or snow in my area here in Germany. But I will record a video on that topic as soon as I can :)
Hi Chris, You say that timing the extension is the most important part and I totally agree as Im having problems with this. But I'm still a bit confused about when exactly to extend. Can you elaborate? Do you wait until the board is already up the slope? Is there a rule of thumb? Love the channel!
Hey there, first of all: sorry for making you wait a full week before getting an answer. But now on to your question. I think it is important to develop the correct feeling, but of course that doesn't help much early on obviously. BUT I would like you to start playing with your extension. Go out in your next session and try to extend at various moments. If you do it, that way you will hit it right a few times, thus giving you the feeling that you are looking for. And I promise, you WILL feel it, when you hit it. So experimenting and developing that feeling is absolute paramount.
But now on the answer that will help you find the right moment. Looking at myself I think the moment I'm looking to extend is in the apex of the transition. So just when you boards hit the middle curve in between turning from flat to up-slope. And at exactly that moment try to think of your extension as if you we're jumping up and forward on your board, throwing your arms into the direction and help you project up the wall.
I'd love to draw it out and get my thoughts down in a video haha, but unfortunately for now, here on youtube I can't answer questions with a video I think. So I hope my above thoughts make any sense at all to you.
Let me know, if that was helpful, or if you have any remaining questions? I'm happy to try my best and help you.
Amazing content, It's a very good way to get better. Maybe you could do another together like "before/after"...
Yes that was the initial plan but now that I'm in Namibia it'll be hard to make that video - maybe when I'm back in Europe in September Steve will already be a very good bowl skater, and we can make a recap then =)
And also, thank you so so much for your kinds words and feedback about my content, I really really appreciate that a lot ❤️
@@ChrisGenau sure, probably it's enough time to his progression as well ✌🏼✌🏼
Hey mate! Is there a specific reason why you're using the CX truck as opposed to the more "surfy' C7?
hey mate, sorry for the late answer, I’m currently in the process of moving 500km across the country :D so sorry again for not seeing this earlier
most of my skating is done either in the bowl or in town when going from A to B so I like the added stability of the CX truck especially at high speeds - also I feel more comfortable power sliding to break if necessary in the city jungle on the CX trucks :)
if there’s anymore you want me to elaborate on - please let me know
Hi Chris, can you tell us the spot? Looks awesome
for beginners.
That is a little skatepark in Oberhausen - if you Google maps your way to “Spielplatz am Jugendzentrum” it’s right next to it 🤙🏽
let me know if you need further details or just write me an email to chris@nosuperman.com
if you’re on my area I’m also happy to provide some beginner lessons 🙌🏼
Is there a wheelbase you found ideal for bowl skating?
That’s really up to personal preference and changes for each person - not only but also because of height, weight and the ratio of these two towards each other.
So I’m afraid I can’t give you a one fits all answer to that :)
Ist das in oder bei Berlin? Falls ja, wo trainierst du? Bei mir in Mitte gibts nur flat areas.
Das ist noch gefilmt, als ich in Dortmund war.
Ich wohne jetzt Mitte/Prenzelberg und muss erstmal noch alle skateparks und bowls rund Herum kennen lernen :)
@@ChrisGenau Stahnsdorf und in Spandau gibts ne Pumpstrecke. In Moabit am Alten Poststadion solls auch ganz gut sein. Mitte ist eher mau. Aber das Poststadion ist nicht so weit weg. Fast direkt am Hauptbahnhof.
Strange to find frontside harder than backside on a bowl..i,m opposite..great tutorial and analysis, next tutorial..how you do the pen spin at 12:39 )
Edit: ..it was refreshing to see you out of breath after carving that bowl...)
Yeah I though it was a bit unusual as well, but I guess everyone has his own unique challenges =)
How is your surfskating coming along? Would you care for having one of your videos analyzed? Anything surfskate goes =)
Haha yeah I'm massively out of breath, as you could see :D
That pen spin, as a remnant from me being bored 2011 when graduating from high school 🖊
It’s seriously unusual for frontside to be harder than backside? I would have thought just the opposite.
One thing I’m discovering in this process is that I have some body misalignments that make it much harder for me to twist my body that way.
@@SurfskateLove Yea with surfing people tend to find it easyer to surf facing the wave..on your pumping tutorials you pump as if you are facing the wave also.
@@ChrisGenau Ah..I,m still getting the feel for the surfskate and trying to gain balance and confidence..I,m sorta at a stage where I need to get this mortal body to do what the mind asks, even watching myself back theres too much to rip apart and work on at the moment but its getting a bit better every time...be kool to get some analysis down the line tho.
@@middleagedshred That is so wild to me. It is so counterintuitive for me to twist that way.
Bonjour dommage les sous titres ne sont pas en français
Je suis désolé. Je ne parle pas français. Il semble que UA-cam n'offre pas de traduction automatique pour les sous-titres.
Je suis désolé que vous ne puissiez pas regarder la vidéo dans votre langue.
Please make new surfskating videos!!
You’ve got it - now that the weather is finally stabilizing here in spring in Germany, I will soon upload new videos.
What would you like to see next if you could chose? :)
That was my HUGE issue with that channel. He’s trying to teach people when he can barely surfskate himself.
But he really is an awesome guy and teaches in a “I’m new to this as well, so come along on the ride and let’s learn together” - kind of way, and I think that’s awesome for all the fellow beginners out there 🤙🏽
Just to total newbies. I just like getting more people into it. And I’ve found that the existing market doesn’t cater to them. It’s just passion for me, bro. Just love getting people into something that brings me so much joy. But I completely understand.
Одна говорильня
Sorry if this is too technical for you. I thought, and so did many other. That it’s easy and straight forward advice.
What had you been looking for when you clicked the video, that I didn’t provide? Help me be better, so I can help you :)
Awesome that my two favorite UA-cam Channels are collaborating. WHat a great guy Steve is for reaching out to you and growing together 🙌🏼
Yes this is great 🎉
He really is a great guy and person!! I’m grateful that he had me so this!!
