The MOST important intermediate surfing manoeuvre | detailed surf lesson

[@spkay6317]

This is easily the best video I've seen on the top turn. Thanks Kale!

[@surferdude241]

I've got a long way to go, just starting to get away from the foamie, started in June, and thanks to you I've caught a good amount of waves, still come across quite a few that are too big and slam me, thanks for all you do.

[@Nocean831]

Just got the intermediate surfers roadmap course! Stoked to go through it! We get inconsistent, often stormy beach break waves up where I am so it’s hard to get the repetition needed to progress. Hoping the visualizing in this course will help things moving forward!

[@MaThRICOLOR]

How did you like it? Considering buying it myself

[@Nocean831]

@@MaThRICOLOR I love it! Seeing technique broken down slowly and verbalized has really helped me make those mental connections. Its made it easier to visualize in my own head and implement while surfing. Would definitely recommend if you’re on the fence

[@MaThRICOLOR]

@@Nocean831 Thanks, mate!

[@mateopoinson2946]

Got finally the inferno 72 and is working like a mad man on airs, Kale could you do a modern guide on doing airs. Nice Video👍🤙

[@hikebot]

You should do one since you’re such a mad man at airs.

[@KalesBroccoli]

Within the advanced roadmap yes !

[@Yeaaaaap]

Very well explained! Thanks a lot Kale 🤙

[@rwaldburger8125]

Hey thanks a lot for all these tutorials... They help me a lot improving my surfing skillz

[@MensGroup]

SO helpful. Thank you!

[@capetowndiaries777]

Hey Kale, thanks for the tips - been struggling with the timing mostly. Hard to find wide open faces on the West Coast of South Africa in summer ;)

Nice video and beautiful carves (and sprays) mate! 🤙

[@sam8vision]

I saw it for the first time and it became a study 🤟Thank you

[@jeffbrittan1219]

I was excited to see the Intermediate course was released on the Roadmap and I signed right up - great stuff so far.

[@kalarnimeikle5992]

I’m trying to work on getting more vertical and getting the fins out the back

[@thegentleorchestra]

Excellent thanks 🙏

[@Connor-kv5cm]

great analysis kale

[@a.lame.username.]

It's official, the time to get a hair cut like Kelly has arrived...

[@KalesBroccoli]

Haha not yet!

[@asteriscoamarelo2]

thanks mate!

[@rwandeuk]

Great video ! I'm into surfing (virtually..) since i start surfskate. I got, I think, this surf feeling I'm searching for but.. I don't know the wave mechanism, structure.. And you explain it so well ! Thank you 😊🤙

[@itsadam1885]

Just the video i need to watch

[@KEAGS...]

Could you teach us how to do a large snap

[@CB-jq7fe]

Thank you sir...

[@miguelbernardo736]

Nathan, Many tks for the great video!!! When I look at sec 7.52, it looks like the front foot is off center and much closer to the inside rail. Is my understanding correct? That board looks short to me and high volume...is it because this board is fatty and you need to put some additional weight on the inside rail? ....or did i totally miss it? Tks in advance for your comments!

[@kallansmith819]

Great vid man!! Yew Just a question about the top turn. At 2:39/2:40 you are beginning to turn head/shoulders/torso. My question is: is the weight on the front foot? And do you need to transfer weight onto the heels or no? Cheers kale

[@surfershaper]

The re-compression at the top of the backhand snap allows your momentum to carry through with speed. Accelerating out of it with projection and flow!

[@matthewramsey677]

What the fuck am i getting into…

[@Mortlocknik]

I am learning a pumping

[@hbr6545]

for me who mainly surfs beach breaks i struggle to have enough time after the pop up to remember to line up everything. My instinct is to pump right away after pop up because i know the way will close out. When i manage to pass the section then is alsmost to late for me to go for a bottom turn comeback up for round house.. feels like I just dont have enough time. Anyone struggling with this issue? Any tips?

[@coolbeans4399]

Ye especially in the uk where our waves are very quickly over …. Just try get your manoeuvre in a few seconds after the pop up

[@alfonsolopc]

Hey Kale. I have trouble with de-entries like at 2:52 but most importantly with pushing hard with my back foot to the point of throwing the fins over the lip? Do you have any material on these snaps or are you planning on doing some? Thank you!

[@KalesBroccoli]

Within the course yes 🤙🏽

[@albinochewie543]

Throwing arms above your head and kicking back foot like a karate kick helps fun release

[@alfonsolopc]

@@albinochewie543 got you. For example on a surfskate I’m able to do the biggest tailside ever and it’s really easy for me because I skate for 10 years but when I get in the water it’s different. I wonder if maybe I have to enter the section with the nose of my surfboard more vertical?

[@albinochewie543]

@@alfonsolopc it is harder to throw a surfboard compared to a surf skate. You do have to get as vertical as possible, as close to 12 o clock as possible

[@alfonsolopc]

@@albinochewie543 for real.. thanks for the tips

[@Sake27325]

Kale Brock, would you ever make a snowboarding video? I’m gonna definitely check out the intermediate course!

[@HatchosShapes]

A whip or wrap! Great turns!

[@death_knell]

Hey kale, love the video! I’m having a struggle with my future surfing “career”. I’m on a wavestorm right now, but it’s getting difficult to turn and go down the line. I’ve tried my dads longboard and I feel that it is too much Baird for me, but shortboards aren’t easy to ride and progress fastly on. Would you suggest trying a mid length board? If possible, do you think you can make a detailed video about fish, short, long, and mid length boards please? Thank you!!

[@KalesBroccoli]

Sure thing ! Hopefully over the summer

[@death_knell]

@@KalesBroccoli yew! Thank you so much, looking forward to it!

[@average0citizen]

So when do you do a cutback and when a roundhouse cutback where your gaze shifts all the way back to the whitewater?

[@rydeovashit]

Wasn't sure what a serfa was until.i kept watching

[@-3590-]

Sounds like a very educated man. Gonna need to do another video for bogans like me so we can understand.

[@dialysisdude1079]

Road map to stale turns 😂 no, it's not a about waving your arms around and the rotation is created by the board, not body or the arms. Set your rail and hold on. It's really about balance of the feet, and not the body so much at all. A good surfer can make up for body position by relaxing and putting weight in the toe or heel. Wave your arms around all you want, but your turns will still be stale without relaxing and putting energy through the feet or shifting the feet. Feet first and forget about the upper body.

[@KalesBroccoli]

Show us how it’s done mr Dude

[@dialysisdude1079]

@@KalesBroccoli I don't have a filmer and can't film myself surfing at distance, as well as I'm not consistent enough myself to show you what I'm talking about in the surf. That's the dialysis part of the dude thing. When I get a chance and it's dry enough here I will try to make a vid to explain what I'm talking about on a skateboard. One way to think about it is that you don't have to see where you are going in order to go there. It's about leaning off the board on one side or the other in order to make that weight shift onto the rail. More rail in the water is what makes the board turn. Also like in snowboarding it's really about what's happening with the toe and heel weight more than the upper body. I know everyone tries to emulate Kelly's "perfect" cutbacks, but there are many ways to make the board turn and the arms are not what turns the board.

[@dialysisdude1079]

I guess stale isn't really the word I mean, mapped out is more like what I mean. A little manufactured in ways.
