Great vid Kale - cheers! Love your videos. Is there a minimum volume to your board before duckdiving becomes possible? I'm 70kg, 5"7 / 169cm, and just dropped from my 7"2 mal to a 6"7 hybrid board with about 40L of volume. Finding it pretty hard to push it under and keep it underwater long enough!

Hi Kale love your vlogs. I was wondering if you could give me some advise on a board for my son he is transitioning from a soft board to hard board and as you suggest we are looking for a fish however we are not sure on the size we should get. He is 50kg however I would like to get him a board that he can use for a while as he is growing pretty fast. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work we look forward to your next vlog.

lOVE THE VLOGS BROCCOLI! I am struggling a lot with my duck dives. I actually had some surfers today yell at me to surf further down the line if I can not duck dive properly :/ my issue is that I can get the noes down; however, I am struggling with getting the tail end of the board under. I ride a 6ft fish so it is short enough to duck dive, but i cant seem to get the tail under. What I have been doing is using my shin to help balance the board as I push the noes down, and then I try to get my foot up to push it down; however I am still getting pushed back by all the white water. Could you please give some more in depth tips about making sure you get the tail end down? Maybe I should try filming my self in a pool to see what I am doing wrong. Anyways, Thanks so much for the help! I love watching your videos to help improve my surfing skills so I look less like a kook on the beach!

You can also pull your self down onto the board when it’s at its deepest to get your body deeper. The large surface area of the board will pull you down also angling the nose of the board down as you push on the tail will drive the board deeper. Awesome visual though Kale.

Started surfing again about three years ago so got myself a mini mal (crazy how much extra weight you carry in your 30's compared to 20's 😂) and somehow found that using the foot to duckdive on a board with so much volume was way easier to control than the knee. When I upgraded back to a shortboard the foot technique stuck, and it's unbelievable how much more momentum you carry through the back of the waves, and noticeably speeds up your paddling time to get to the backline. Dig the channel and content, always good to recall and remember the essentials. Happy sub from Cape Town, ZA. Yeew!

I’m an intermediate to advanced surfer (can do reverses and airs on a good day) and after nearly 20yrs, I finally understand this is why I shy away from bigger waves and get tired quickly in bigger surf, I keep getting knocked around when duckdiving and it takes double the energy to paddle back into the lineup.

Adding to your great tips, to duck dive deep, it helps me think that I am diving with the board to reach the bottom of the sea and not simply to "sink". Second, when I was learning, I was diving under the front of the white water but the wave is a couple of feet behind so the "dive" should be under "2 things" passing by. Last, and mainly with hybrids with lots of volume, moving my hands a bit towards the nose makes it easier to push the board in the water ...with a risk however to nose dive too much, shoot back the board and look ridiculous :P (pushing one rail in the water first is also helpful at times)

being able to watch it from different angles in such clear waters is priceless! Thank you so much! Would you say that duckdiving is a skill that should be explored mainly by intermediate/experts? I know that some people can still duckdive high volume boards but it requires great technique. So, would you say that beginners/intermediate (who mainly ride reasonably fat boards) shouldn't necessarily focus on duckdiving since it would take a lot of time to master the necessary technique to duckdive a high volume board, while maybe a turtleroll can be as effective as a duckdive? Can't wait for your next video!

I believe after people understand the major principles of duck diving, it is really the small things that makes the most differences. Some Kale explained very well in the video above, some you have to learn from trial & error based on feeling. I've improved my technique with Kale's insights and it helped a lot, and I also use some complementary tricks; I'll let them here, maybe it can help you or others. 1st: You have to push the board as away as your body as possible, so the 'flow' of water can pass between you and it: you have to really believe in yourself here, once below I do try a second push towards the bottom and even more with my leg - its incredible how far you can go deep if you insist! After kicking, I usually 'snake' my body in an S course towards the surfboard so to go as smoothly as possible below the crashing. 2nd: I end the movement by kicking my legs behind me (the above mentioned frog kick), but sometimes, specially when there's still a huge water mass over me, I also do a superman pose (if its hard to grasp what I mean by it, just look up on google the terms "superman surfboard/skateboard trick" and you'll see that it is pretty much straightforward) while resurfacing in order to avoid coming up into too much turbulence when there's too much of it: when you do it, the trick is to let your body and the surfboard come up together naturally due to our body's natural buoyancy. 3rd: Lastly, when I'm 90% resurfaced, I do a set of two to five speed paddles accompanied by kicking to unleash myself from the white water and gain momentum; That usually does the trick!

I am so-so at duck diving as I only recently started surfing a short board that I can duck dive. I know the literal steps of how to do it, but sometimes my dives are 'off' and I somehow lose momentum driving the board down (part of it is probably hesitation when waves are bigger.) You have developed a pretty good vocabulary on a lot of the kinesthetic parts of surfing so any tips on that in your tutorial would be great!!

Does your technique change when duck diving bigger waves?
@castelodomar846
@castelodomar846 4 жыл бұрын
@Majixkai Welsh My short answer to your question is, my duck dive technique is still the same, but I will knife my board deeper and use a foot instead of a casual knee or top of my foot. I'd say my psychology and fear management are the biggest changes that happen in me. When I'm surfing larger waves, I'm on a bigger board. I can get a bladed out 7'6" reasonably deep, but if I'm on a chunkier board larger than that, then it gets hard to knife it under to a sufficient depth (and then I'm probably going to be surfing a reef with a big wide channel instead of a random beach break). All that said, if I'm facing a wave of consequence while paddling back out, there is a critical fork in the road moment where I have to decide, do I charge towards it or hold back? 9 times out of 10, I'll charge at it unless I think it's not safe. I tend to get a bit primal and mental in those circumstances and start paddling as hard as I can straight at the wave to take advantage of the suck and generate as much speed as possible going into the duck dive. Once I have the speed, then I'll literally lunge up and into the duck dive with as much body weight as I can muster and knife the board straight down (or almost straight down) and as deep as possible, using my foot instead of my knee. And then at just the right moment, I'll push my body down deep to meet my board. My goal is to get as deep as possible underwater with my body against the board. If it's a cascading lip coming down on top of me, then I'll try to release the duck dive with my foot and then angle the board so I don't get sucked back (which sometimes happens no matter what I do). When I get lucky, the force of the penetrating lip will actually push me out the back of the wave (one of those "whew!" moments). If it's a steamroller of whitewater coming at me, then I try to stay under and deep as long as I can with my board and feel as much of the turbulence pass over me as possible before I release the duck dive. If I get hit really hard and it's insanely violent, then I just do my best to bear hug my board and cling to it for dear life, knowing it's my ticket back to the surface. I might be cartwheeling all over the place, but I won't let go (Side tip: I try to keep my head turned to the side so I don't take the board to my face during the thrashing). Then again, I've had days where I got hit by a rogue set out the back and it literally drove me all the way to the bottom and pinned me there with my board still IN my hands (scary shit). My biggest lesson about NOT BAILING was over 30 years ago as a young fella surfing Pascuales in Mainland Mexico. I was paddling back out after a wave and got caught inside right as a heaving lip was coming down on me, almost in slow motion. It was the most primal fear I'd ever felt up to that point. I bailed my board like the pussy I was and my leggie broke like I wasn't even wearing a leggie. I got grabbed by the wave and pulled SOOO deep and, because it breaks over black volcanic sand, the water was pitch black and I had no idea which way was up. I seriously almost drowned that day, no exaggeration. I was seconds from inhaling water because I was so desperate for air. Anyway, I survived (fortunately) and then went back out and got over my fear of duck diving heavy shit. To be fair, I'm no Kai Lenny or any Hawaiian hellman, but in general, my default rule is to always duck dive and take everything on the head. Percentage wise, it's always served me well on most circumstances. I've actually made it under some beasts where I thought I was a goner. Then I'd come up and everyone that was next to me that bailed got a beating and was washed in. Anyway, hope that's helpful. Just my story, but I'm always open to learning new ways of doing things! BTW, nice channel @Kales Broccoli 🤙

My duck dives are actually pretty effective even though I use my knee but I’m gonna start using my foot now because I got huge pressure dings from my knee

How do you duck dive under bigger waves with lots of white water

Kelly describes barreling waves like the eye wall of a hurricane. The inner circle of the wave is where it’s force is greatest. You’re rarely going to be able to ever get deep enough to avoid the entire force of a big wave. But you can get deeper relative to the ‘eye wall’ of the wave. It mostly just entails doing everything in the video faster and with more intensity. Really paddling hard before the duck dive with an efficient transition to a downward angle. Most people lose a lot of their momentum in this transition. As far as white water- assuming the wave has broken, paddle toward the point of the wave that has broken first. Sounds counter intuitive, but this portion of the wave has started dissipating it’s energy sooner than the portion of the wave that has only just broken. This assumes the entire wave within your paddle range has already broken. If you can reach the unbroken portion of the wave, do so. If not, paddle toward the portion of the wave that has broken first. A waves power diminishes at an exponential ratio as time passes. So the portion of a wave that has broken only a few seconds earlier will be considerably weaker than the portion of the wave that has immediately broken. Sometimes, time permitting, I wait for the broken wave to come to me as the longer I wait, the less powerful the whitewater. So I’ll sit on my board waiting for the whitewater to hit and take a few powerful strokes just prior to the wave hitting me. Rushing out to meet an already breaking wave only means you’re going to be paddling into a more powerful force. No reason to rush into a beating.

What works for me is after I kick the board down, I try to meet my board with my chest underwater so when I come up, I'm already in the paddling position.

Great video!!! I am learning how to surf and your videos have really helped me. Do you have any tips for paddling out on a long board when the wind is strong and the waves are pounding?

Recommended liters seldom take into account what's the max range for individual "duck-divability".. a crux distinction , as important as the minimum liters to "float" you. And to what extent does foam distribution (shape) effect a board's duck-divability, given identical liters volume ?

Nice tutorial! I'm curious what you do in head-high+ surf as I can't imagine sliding my hands up when the wave is trying to rip the board away. I'll try to frog kick next time I'm out though for sure! Thanks

For me what works is lifting the other leg up and keeping it in that position. The white water or the lip will hit the lifted leg and lift me up fast onto the surface on the back side of the wave. This technique works best for me of the ones I've tried and saves me of situations where otherwise I would end being dragged by the wave. Maybe it's kind of obvious but now i purposely look for this. It creates nice momentum upwards which facilitates continuing paddling afterwards. I've tried also pulling myself with my chest towards the board as described in the other comments but nothing works for me as well as this little trick.

In heavy conditions point you nose straight down. Then let the power of the white water smash your legs and butt down. Never tried sliding the hands up in to the nose. I'll try it.

Hi Kale, I very appreciate your videos. Where this one has been filmed? It s such a lovely place to surf!! Nous avons des jolies plages en France, mais cet endroit me fait vraiment envie. A quick french part to remind you trip in France (Biarritz) where people speak as fast as english people do, when you're a french guy ;) .
