7 steps to intermediate surfing | The Surfer's Roadmap

Surfers typically plateau in their abilities by the time they reach upper beginner or low intermediate. We need a shift in the standards, the knowledge base (the roadmap) so that we can globally up-level the surfing population. That way, everybody can have even more fun riding waves :)

Mate. This must be the best summary I have ever watched in the very basics of surfing. Even for an intermediate like me ( based on your criteria), it feels good to refresh those concepts!

[@KalesBroccoli]

Great to hear!

[@misszelka]

ahhh!!! this is gonna change everything!! particularly the angle bit (so used to starting straight on the broken waves!) so obvious now that you've mentioned it. thanks!! xxx

[@catjenkins9679]

Thank you Kale! Going to remember the compressed position and the angles next time, cheers!

[@yogaandsoulhealing-withcar2357]

Thanks Kale! your video teachings and instructions are the best :) cheers from Portugal!

[@KalesBroccoli]

Thank you!!

I first surfed in 2001. I've been crap at surfing ever since, despite trying many times. This year, I went to Cimaja, Java four times and didn't improve, so I booked 15 days at Padang Padang Surf Camp. On day one I got advice that had me surfing more waves than the 4 times I'd been to Cimaja. I'd say I'm now an almost intermediate.

Great breakdown Kale! Watching this i realise that I'm still beginner, just not spending enough time in the water. These videos help a lot

[@KalesBroccoli]

🤙🏽

[@igoryagot]

Well done, Kale! It will be helpful to know more on the gear: if, let's say, I am using a longboard 7'4 with 48L as a beginner, my next graduate step will be like 7'0? and which volume and shape? Thank you!

[@soulfulwapechi]

Loved this breakdown!

[@KalesBroccoli]

Glad it was helpful!

[@erdemulubas]

[@Yelbomsirhc1]

Thank you. I’ve been out of the water for a while and getting older so I feel like I’m regressing. Hopefully these tips will help me get my mojo back.

[@andry744]

Great video! May I ask where is the location of the filming? At least of the most crowded beach, that looks amazing! Thanks

[@alekboi4016]

wow dude, thankyou so much

[@meesMB015]

Great vid

[@riffraffrichard]

Really useful 🙏

[@KalesBroccoli]

Glad to hear that

I have taken only a few lessons so far (all 1-on-1 private lessons), and the lack of standardised level system confuses me. Some surf schools have only 3 levels, and others have as many as 12.

[@Surf03]

So how do you know which way of the wave is going to break and which way to angle your board when you’re at a reef break and when you’re at a beach break that is what I am struggling with

[@timwannell6477]

me!

[@bsmbB]

Please call the board the "mwoahaha"

[@KalesBroccoli]

😂😂😂

[@moneybay]

Definitely more aSs😂

[@ItsClxtch]

[@olpeman]
