How to Shaka

[@joeboulanger7153]

Super instruction. I like how you cover each little part of the move so that they integrate together. Other instructions I have found are too general for the learner. Your breakdown of the Shaka is exceptional and your explanations and pointers are spot on! I love doing spock 540s and desperately want to learn this trick, but hai carrumba it is difficult!! At 56 years old, I hope I can learn it before it will be time to hang em up.

You are possibly one of the best all rounders I have seen. Do you compete in the PWA?

+Charlie O'Sullivan Thanks for the compliment. :) Both Danielle and I used to compete in the PWA freestyle but not any more. We decided to stop and focus on our coaching business.

Hi there, congratulations for all the work you have done. I follow every video you upload. My current freestyle level is: spocks (normal, one handed, 540), grubbys, spin loops and flakas. I am working on ponches right now, but I cant find any good tutorial on the internet. I would love to see one made from you. Greetings from Chile!!!

+Oliver Krüger Hi Oliver Thanks for messaging us. It sounds like you're already doing well with your freestyle. We will look at making a pinch tutorial in the near future. Hope it will help you when it is made. Phil

great instruction, very good tips. Thank You !!! Being training shaka long. Landed few shaky ones. I havent been pulling back hand on take of properly and never could get rotation on flat water. Now i know why, I think this will help !!! Thinking about your clinics as well. I live in Tarifa. Do you do any in spain ?

[@GetWindsurfing]

Thanks for the great feedback. I'm very happy to hear you like the video. I hope you have more success soon with the training tips. We have never been to mainland Spain. But have occasionally done clinics in Fuerteventura. Another great location for freestyle is Dakhla, Morocco. You should check it out. We are there in November www.getwindsurfing.com/courses

The day I can make my Shaka long and floaty is the day I will no longer feel ashamed of my forward.

[@GetWindsurfing]

Don'y be ashamed of your forward.... Just enjoy it and keep pushing :)
