1. surf in the upper half of the wave 2. eyes lead the way on turns (look back at the whitewater) 3. open the shoulders (eyes, head, and shoulders lead the turn) (hands act as pivot points) 4. coil, press, release (use your hips) 5. ride the best board (round and thick might be better) 6. slow down 7. think independently, don't follow the crowd

@simonharbig95 4 года назад

I definitely fall into the trap of rushing, particularly when waiting in a busy line-up and a good wave finally comes my way, I am so excited to get surfing I simply mess up my pop-up and wipe out. So the other day I took your advice and had a peak at a break around the corner from the usual spot, the waves may not have been as good but I got a ton of waves and was really able to relax on the wave and enjoy my surfing, cheers 😊

I was gonna comment the same thing! Roll don't rush!

@benmcqueen4560 4 года назад

I watched this last night just before bed, it must have sunk in, as this morning's surf was epic. I remembered all your tips and my God it made such a difference, thanks Kale. This video really helped.

@peradies7044 3 года назад

Thanks kale! Been wondering why I couldn't generate speed for so long now, and now I realize it's because I stay in the lower half of the wave, much appreciated!

I've been watching your videos for a while now and can I just say you are an excellent teacher. You are positive. You go into detail on issues all surfers from intermediate to advance struggle with. You make it seem possible to advance within the mind while stuck on land. Sometimes you introduce exercises that can be done to improve the issues. Thank you for the amazing content.

@OleKristianFjelltun-Larsen 4 года назад

Always good videos. Find them just as repetitive as I need to make me slowly remember it when I am in the water. After watching it over and over again I have had more improvement the last year than the 10 years before that. Now I instantly recognise mistakes I do when in the water.

@KalesBroccoli 4 года назад

That’s so good!!

@ciaranwalters4658 3 года назад

Mate, love the videos. Just binged on a load. Love how you talk of the cold though.... Come over for a surf in Ireland😕. Keep the vids coming my man. They are super helpful!

@SmilefitCoUk Год назад

The arms! It’s all about the arms! I did one thing Kale talked about in another video and did (what felt like) a searing top turn on my forehand! I was like 😮woah. This is the main thing that was holding me back from linking turns together with proper speed, power and flow on my forehand. Backhand wasn’t a problem. A bit of context, I’ve been a surfer for 25 years and done plenty of top turns before but seems I’ve fudged together my own way of managing which was hit and miss or a bit clunky. Game changer! Cheers Kale 🤠🤙

@lecooljamsdance149 4 года назад

So good! Super helpful thanks so much. Good to have the thought reassured that I should be on a board with a bit more volume. Permission to buy a new board...tick! :D Also great to hear you say we often know tips theoretically but putting them into practice is a different story. Great vids with the pauses and comparisons of technique. Thanks again!

@aimlessimages831 2 года назад

Mistake one is spot on for me. I watched video of myself in Nica, and saw that I missed barrel ops because of riding so low. Good stuff here.

All of these things have completely changed my surfing before the video. Now I can’t wait to put the specifics in and have one of the best sessions of my life!! I can’t wait to watch all the other videos!! You are really great at explaining the physicality of what’s happening!! Yewwwwww🤙🏼 🙏🏼

@chrismathews3629 3 года назад

Hey man, I just wanted to seriously Thankyou. You’ve hugely improved my surfing (at least how it feels!!) in the last few sessions alone, before I used to take off and just gun down the line for a section, easpecially on my forehand. Now, I have your voice in the back of my head saying, ‘ match the speed of the wave’ .. and I’m surfing so much more smooth. Secondly, I’m really thinking about how my board feels, not how I feel on it. Trying to notice the nuances before I buy a new board soon, which will likely be an inferno. Thanks again man.

@sashatruong1 4 года назад

Thanks for the tips Kale. I'm definitely the first one where I get caught at the bottom of the wave and don't get in that power zone to pick up speed. I liked your tip about looking up at the lip as soon as I bottom turn, and following my hand. It helped and I'm trying do that more each time. My boyfriend really liked your tip about using the head and shoulders more on his turns. He was able to pick more speed and better complete his turns. Let us know how we can continue to support you. Gonna try to order your sunblock.

Hey mate, I’m a intermediate surfer in sunny QLD. I put in place a couple of your suggestions on this video last weekend. I noticed a big improvement on my performance - it was so good! In particular the rotation of my vision and look to where I want to go. I generated way more speed than ever before. I like your videos and will keep following you for more hints. Thanks legend!

@jonynos16 3 года назад

thanks for the help. i'm an intermidiate surfer just now starting to pop some airs, and i find myself commiting some of the mistakes you talk about. Mainly wanting the wave to adapt to my surfing tecnic instead of the opposite, i'm too energetic on the waves and not waiting makes me not have the speed i requier because i'm not surfing on the pocket. thanks for all your tips, i'll pay more attention to them,

@theoverstoker3430 4 года назад

@Hm86926 4 года назад

“A dozen or so waves in a row” lol maybe I should stop surfing at snappers rocks then

@stephenberry6191 4 года назад

Thanks Kale. I learn so much from all of your video tutorials. I have been guilty of doing of all mistakes. Rushing has been my number 1 continued mistake. From your previous videos I’ve been most successful when looking to the top of the wave after popping up & then looking back to the whitewater from top turns . I still need to concentrate on riding more in the top third of the wave. Practicing all the time now on the smoothstar is starting to gives me some flow, from head, arm, body rotation, with lifting & compressing movement.. Great work!! If possible some more smoothstar training drills; linking bottom turns, to top turns, to cutback, to foam re-entry would be fantastic, to know I’m training correctly. Really appreciate your work!! Besides buying your products, I’ll even watch more of the adds. Cheers

@KalesBroccoli 4 года назад

Oh Stephen mate that’s awesome!! So glad they’re helping and it sounds like you’re making some solid progress ! Sick! I’ve got a sweet SmoothStar vid coming next week!

Guilty for surfing in the bottom half of the wave and wondering where the speed is! Thanks Kale. Going to focus on moving up and down the face to get my flow back in my next session. 👌

@diegopfister9815 4 года назад

Hey Kales! Awesome videos!!! Really appreciate. Can you make a video of how to avoid closeouts? How to know which spot is going to be closing out beforehand? How sandbanks move and stuff... That would be great !!

Watch my “catch more waves” video :)

@LibbySchumacherKnight 4 года назад

That was fab thank you. For me the first one, surfing in top and bottom of wave. Just got in from an early morning surf worked on this and immediately noticed a difference. Oh plus the looking. Thanks heaps for the vids.

@KalesBroccoli 4 года назад

@michaelwilson8760 4 года назад

✊Kale, gr8 ! You mentioned torque a few times, and board selection, power to weight ratios, ive developed better mobility on a skateboard, but so much depends on proper board selection, after that the rest is easier, although not less dangerous ! Plus the other key tip ive heard is to get back up the wave asap, ie vertical re-entry, its the max use of the critical section. 👍

@KalesBroccoli 4 года назад

🙌🏽🤙🏽

@dylanyates4091 4 года назад
