Thanks so much for this one. Very helpful. I found the drain analogy very interesting as a powder hound. As all powder hounds know, the best transition is found on the deadly tree wells, (which are to be avoided obviously unless you know what you're doing). Comparing the circle of the drain to the wave makes good sense from my perspective and I'm gonna keep paddling here in Bali until I can speak wave like I speak mountain!
I want to surf on rail but I can't figure out the technique. Can it be learnt on small waves? Snowboarding is easy because you just lean over your toes or sit back over your heels. This doesn't work for surfing.
Smaller waves give you less room for engaging the rails, they usually break faster and with a much smaller area from the pocket to the flat part of the shoulder. I find it a lot easier on bigger, slower moving waves that run nice and clean. It gives you more time and control while figuring out the lean and learning to 'trust the hold'. Smaller surf usually requires you to be much more reactive and precise - depends heavily on the board and riding style though.
@@ombesurf Cheers to you guys for not just pumping out content and ads like many others, but going out of your way to engage with your viewers even on YT comments for the sake of understanding. It truly shows what makes OMBE stand out from all the rest: your natural connectedness (both in and out of the water) as well as your deep rooted ambition to spread the word and the spirit. It strongly resonates with me and many others and is well appreciated. Happy New Year and all the best to you, maybe we'll get to share a few some day!
Agree, only because when you’re trying to get your head around new concepts, (like the science behind fins and rails) the music is distracting and makes it harder to concentrate. Well for me at least 🤷♂️😂
He’s the Bob Ross of surfing 😊 everything is informative and relaxing
Outstanding explanations!
Great video. Thank you as always, Clayton and team.
Very informative as usual, thanks clay for the explanation

Great advice I even ride my long boards this way of course I'm 61 now so my long boards are my short boards.
Stoked you are still charging!
thank you for your effort mate of putting into words things that are unexplainable
My pleasure! I love this stuff
@ombesurf "do what you love and love what you do" right on thanks for sharing you know goes back to you 10 fold best wishes to you for 2025 and beyond
Happy new year and great explanation! What's the best way to train rail to rail surfing? Surfskating in a bowl?
Try a smaller board and do it lying down. This makes it easier to lean and will help keep you in the energy of the wave. Then repeat standing up
amazing video as always. What happened to the ombe podcast, I miss it :(
Been too busy with YT new facility and surf trips
我知道浪的水流方向 但卻從未想過去利用它 太讚啦
It works so well
Hi. Comanda and Bernoulli effect are different. At some points of the video are mix up
Coanda
Coanda is the flow of liquid or air overs a curved surface.
An aircraft will rely on both lift from the wing foil and angle of attack . Surfboards and fins also. Sharp hard stall angles get moderated by curves.
True
3rd. Happy NYE
Happy NYE to you too!
You are great at teaching, thank you for sharing this wisdom.
Happy new year!
Happy New Year. Glad you enjoyed it.

Also, reef / point breaks help a lot with predictability (repetition) as opposed to most beach breaks.
You need to have more speed and power or else you can’t lean over the rail

would you call domey or whatever the spelling the board you have in your hands early in the video :?
Thank you , I have learnt much today
You are very welcome
Great information. Ditch the background music please.
Not lovin it!
Background music is unnecessary. Kinda distracting.
Nah it'll be fine
Noted any suggestions
I think drop it down to -28 dB. As a background music it's great, just a little too loud.

Well for me at least 🤷♂️😂
Agreed too! Love the video otherwise 👍🏽👍🏽
