It's good to see the whole paddle-out sequence from start to finish. Here's a tip from a sixty-seven-year-old surfer: Save your energy by walking out as far as you can. Maybe even until it's chest high. Then, be real patient for a great lull and hightail it out.
by the sheer looks of it you are "swinging" a lot, meaning: try to paddle as if someone stuck a metal tube up your butt. also: keep your emotions in check: cut down on the "oh no's" and the "whoo-hoo's". it's all energy leaving the body and it makes you focus on the wrong things. try to remember the ideal position on the board by sticking some wax where your nose should be. clench butt, chest up, legs together, straight feet, so the water can pass better. elbows up as if you wanna reach over a barrel and close your fingers to create a shovel with your hands. look forward. moving your head means moving the board, means creating drag. and make use of your ribs, they're basically the "hand" grabbing the board. it's all those things. check kelly slater vids and try to recreate his paddling style. it also helps tons to practice on a lake where you can focus on all that without the waves. for the turtle roll: when you spin the board back around grip it tightly and use the volume of the board to pull you back up. done right you'll be back on in sub 2secs. practice in shallow water. everyone wants to sit comfy in the lineup but surfing is 95% paddling. it's a science in its own. learn to love it. look for darker water. learn to read channels. spend time on the beach just reading the waves. wait for the set to pass and walk in as far as possible. done right you won't even get your hair wet ;) and you look cool doing it.
Take it easy on yourself. Instead of speaking negatively about your skills, be progressive in your wording. Every word is energy. Make sure it's positive dude! ✌️ Sick video
Hey dude, you’re a beginner! Don’t be so hard on yourself when you mess up, we all have before. We’ve all been kooks before. It’s not like you don’t know you’re making mistakes or you’re doing them on purpose or something like that. Just find ways not to be in peoples ways and apologize when you are- don’t sweat it so much!!
This video hits the nail pretty much on the head, although when you make it out the back it’s usually a good idea to have a minute to catch your breath and get some stamina back into your upper body before you try to catch anything. Otherwise your more likely to struggle getting the wave and if you manage too, you will have a tough time getting back out after that first one because you have spent most of your energy. Yours truely, Aussie Grom
Some advice from someone who races surf rescue paddle boards. Heavy white water if you paddle over and don’t need to Eskimo roll, slide right back sit up and lift the nose. Even in huge surf you can do this method to push the nose of the board through the face of wave. Sitting up and kind of hugging your board. If you do have to Eskimo roll because it’s to big learn to hold onto board and extend your body straight to act as an anchor. Then roll onto board and paddle asap. You can practice or people can practice in flat water. This advice is for longboards or paddle boards. Good luck. ✌️
@@Nandox7 I've do this method often. Yeah I sit back on the board to lift it up and as the white water comes through and I feel the nose lifting up, to prevent it from tipping over I time it and grab the rails and lean in won my stomach and chest back towards the center of the board as the white water rolls under me. This puts you back into your paddling position on the board and can easily start paddling already. You'll have to judge how far back you need to sit and how high the white water is for you to do it, but there will be a point when the only choice you'll have is to turtle roll or ditch (if no one is around).
This is Gold. Thanks for posting. A thought: after paddling out for a while you take the first wave you see perhaps somewhat impulsively and end up getting thrashed. You took no time to catch your breath, chill out, look around, see who’s catching waves and from where, you just made a u-turn and paddled into the first available wave. And cut somebody off. I know this kind of behavior as I have done it myself. Not given myself enough time to just relax out there after having successfully battled my way beyond the whitewater. Sure is peaceful out there bobbin’ up and down. Thanks again. Great video. Instructive.
Yo I know this vid is 4 years old at this point, but it was super helpful. Seeing your explanation of how waves form in diagram form, and talking through your mistakes was incredibly insightful for me as an intimidated beginner. Thanks bro
Makes me realize the sense of water skiing. Surfing has allways interested me. A friend used to count the sec.of a guy's run. I never forgot that? Yeah its not long. Surfing was what islanders did before the industrial age. I even have a lake near me with the cable thing! Crap I could tie to my foot and be dragged all over every jump! Probably 3 mins continuous! Ha! And no competition!!! Or a cheap boat.
LOL I am LATE to the party, sorry. But just wondering, I am a brand new surfer too, I've always been told you should not have the board in front of you when you're walking out. Have you been smashed in the face?? I appreciate this vid, showing the whole sequence is really useful.
Awesome video about Wushi arbor. I think the best tip is to watch other experimented surfer and what is their strategy to get to past the wave break. Looking forward to meet you in the water someday.
Awesome man. I was just at La Jolla Shires San Diego and after about 29yrs since my last surf, I really kooked it bad. Pissed off some locs and got in the way. Anyway. I will be backm8n the swing soon bro, and you’ll be ripping in no time. Laterz
I like your English videos! I’m a long and medium board surfer. I wish I could understand your other videos 🤙 stay Kooky(but not cancerous 😂😂) I’m going to start saying “ sorry I’m such a cancer😂”! So funny. Going out to surf in the rain in California Have a good surf weekend!
I wouldn't stand behind your board when waves are coming or else you can get injured. I always try to control the nose by either dipping it under or throwing it over
Great vid man! Don’t sweat it when you make mistakes by getting in someone’s way/accidentally dropping in, I’ve come across some straight up dickheads in the water when I’ve made honest mistakes and in my opinion THEY are the cancer in the water not you. Keep rippin brah!
this was actually useful, tysm. i have trouble finding balance on the board so when i do pushup on a whitewater wave i usually have a hard time staying on the board after, i usually fall x_x
Good advice mostly should be right in those rocks I paddle out about two feet away from them. Have gotten out in head high surf without getting hair wet. 35 years experience. Learn to duck dive dolphin kick under water and be paddling as you surface.
tip for the paddle out : time the sets ,just Stand at belly high water (on the shore) and jump over the last 2 set waves then start paddling ,odds are you make it out before the next set ✌️hope it helps ,used to struggle with that 🥴
It's great that you filmed the whole sequence from your point of view on the board. It really gives someone the experience of what they will be facing. I agree with @Ticki Volta , you're board is swinging side to side as you paddle. Check that your positioning is straight on the board and hone your paddling skills. From what I could see it looked like you could improve your paddle stroke. Watch videos on the subject and observe professional swimmers.
One thing: Maybe don't call yourself "a cancer". Cancer is real, it's ugly, a lot of people have lost a loved one from cancer. You're not "a cancer", you're a human being trying your best.
I have nothing against you but I've been hit by one of those Costco boards from China. It gnarled my board's nose too. I was livid. I caught the guy trying to paddle back out and I called him out to the beach and he was willing to pay for the damage. He apologized and explained that he was starting out. I'm chill most of the time and being from the coast, I understand that everyone is trying to have fun at the beach and in the water.
Don’t use those boards those types can make your surfing worse you can go to a local surf shop and buy a good foam board for 300 it can make your surfing way better and will last longer and don’t put a tail pad on a foam board it makes you look like a kook

How exactly you do that? You sit on the back of the board and lift the nose or you sit at the front?
@@Nandox7 I've do this method often. Yeah I sit back on the board to lift it up and as the white water comes through and I feel the nose lifting up, to prevent it from tipping over I time it and grab the rails and lean in won my stomach and chest back towards the center of the board as the white water rolls under me.

Commentary is 10/10 - Thanks for the tips brother! :)
Great video. I've started surfing a few months ago and this pretty much sums up my experience (and frustration) with paddling
It’s good to know that I am not the only one struggling to get out the back 😭
I went surfing the first time today in Oceanside CA, and man those waves were heavy and I was not making it out, so here I am😅
Makes me realize the sense of water skiing.
Surfing has allways interested me.
A friend used to count the sec.of a guy's run.

Probably 3 mins continuous!
Ha!

Or a cheap boat.
When you push-up to get through the breaking waves do you go on your knees or toes. As a newbie I struggle with this and usually fall off my board.
LOL I am LATE to the party, sorry. But just wondering, I am a brand new surfer too, I've always been told you should not have the board in front of you when you're walking out. Have you been smashed in the face?? I appreciate this vid, showing the whole sequence is really useful.
the tip is never put your board between yourself and the waves. cos one day, the waves will make the board hit you. hehe

My struggle right now is my fitness, after taking years off the board and going back into it I often get tired before making it to the line up.
i hear that.

hi man how long is your surfboard?
It’s a wave storm so probably 8 feet
From South Africa 🇿🇦 and had a bad day today and made the mistakes you explained ... great video bro
Good job explaining paddling out. Next video “How Not to drop in on someone”
Love your enthusiasm & honesty-thanks for making this!
I love your narration, its fucking hilarious bro! Ni hao from SF

Looks like wai'ao beach. Ironically the only place outside the US I've ever surfed. Really cool. Taiwan is a beautiful country.
Thank you so much for this video
how are you holding your gopro?
DO NOT BAIL!!!
That moment at 6:00 when somebody is deeper on the shoulder. Shit. I felt that in my tummy 🤟🤌.
So bloody helpful 🤙🏽
My dude,poor rules of the road. None the less keep it up and always paddle around bro ! Take it on the head before f'ing someone's wave !
Had to deal with a sand bank and a rip current pushing me toward the beach , roughest day
this is so rad!!!!
You blissfully dropped in on someone buddy. “Sorry” is not an excuse. Be carful out there.
Nice video 🤙🏾

NOTE: the surfers must go around you
No you paddle towards soup always give way to those up on a wave.

I just can’t paddle out ): I get too scared. I know how to swim but I just get scared
Just remember; broken bones heal, and chicks dig scars 😉

No doubt about it he should pay for the repair at least. Just because someone just gets his license, doesn’t mean that he can hit and run.
