    The most important part of learning to SURF is preparing your body for the journey. No one is stressing the importance of core strength exercises such as (push-ups, sit-ups, bar dips, stretching, balance workouts, etc.) and weight training for stamina/endurance. When you have established & maintain these fundamental core strengths, your progression in surfing levels will increase much quicker.

    Coming out of a 15 year drought of no short boarding and barely any body boarding I did modified straight arm pull downs on a overhead cable machine. Worked great doing max weight for sets of 20-30 and 2min interval sets. Also did "sprints" as my cable machine allows me to pull the cable quickly without the weights flying around. Also with the machine it allows 2 handles on 1 side to work with equal weight so I get the bench in an incline position and grab both handles and do a swimming motion for basically the same sets as the straight arm pull down. In December I couldn't hang in the current at 6ft prays on a bodyboard now I can short board for 3 plus hours pretty easy

    Lack of mobility is definitely my biggest issue. Clearly your techniques work though Nath. Your endurance with paddling is the best in the business🤙 Can you show a routine to build strength and flexibility in the hips. I find my biggest issue surfing is being able to compress at the hips instead of bending my back and leaning over. 👍

    One of the most impressive things about you Nath is the ability to take a beating and carry on as if nothing has happened. Ive seen vids where you take multiple massive waves on the head, get washed in and just run down the beach to paddle out again! I hope you have some fitness app on the horizon because I would sign up! No way I can keep up with this sort of intensity but appreciate the paddle strength tips and can only hope to emulate the "never say die attitude" in the bigger stuff! lol bigger stuff being over 4ft for me!

Love the videos, keep up the great work. Oh and come surf New Zealand.

    up do you go for quicker/shorter strokes only to elbows or another technique...can you talk us through the paddle technique from when the wave is 5 metres behind you till you're up and riding please...sorry for nerding on paddling but it'll massively help me out to know what to practice.

I also used to just paddle, even when I was a little kid, until my arms felt like noodles and then paddle some more.

    so I've a question.... hope you don't mind, you mentioned in one of your recent videos when john got "8 perfect waves at pipe and backdoor" that he used several skills including crowd manipulation. how does one manipulate the crowd or how does that work in general? it seems you are all such a tight knit community and often out surfing together. I can understand it better i think in competition but is it something you put a lot of thought into when just free surfing so you can get the best waves? your whole family (including not by blood) is very inspiring thanks for sharing a little of your life with the world, makes my week each week seeing you all loving life and nature!!
