[@chrisbarnes9260]

Thanks for the video Oscar. Very impressive for someone who hasn’t paddled for two months. Cheers Chris

I struggle to get a boost from smaller conditions like this, I usually feel a tiny bump but it doesnt seem like Im getting much of a speed boost. Do you have a specific tip for what you look for in small bump vs big, or how to maximize your advantage?

[@OscarChalupskySurfski]

Yes try doing just 3 powerful strokes, slow cadence and then make sure you boat speed increases while the wave pushes you for a few easy strokes. Hope that helps

Hello there, this seems like a long shot to ask so many questions but I am 18 and have been interested in getting into surfskis. I was hoping for more of a review on the 510 as it seemed to be one of the more affordable and durable boats. I do rowing so I am pretty fit and used to narrow boats, so should I be looking for a model up from the 510 to the 520 or some other brand's equivalent? I don't have the kind of cash to be upgrading or buying different boats after only a year or two.

The 510 will be perfect to start with

Oscar!, once on a boat, he can't help himself, he has to race!

[@OscarChalupskySurfski]

You are 100% correct

[@Alastair510]

Imagine being in a race, paddling your guts out, then you hear a voice saying "Look at these guys, paddling like crazy, getting nowhere".

[@OscarChalupskySurfski]

Yes that is tough but hopefully they earn from it when they watch the video. I haven't paddled for 2 months so I was very week

[@gadgetman_nz4092]

Go you good thing. I noticed you telling yourself to take it easy a number of times. Obviously that does not come naturally.

[@OscarChalupskySurfski]

Yes as I should be keeping my heart rate under 120 which is MAF, but ti was way over as I haven't paddled in 2 months
