A very, very rare quality of analysis that you deliver like your surfing. Effortlessly.

[@ginjaturtles]

I am loving these videos of 1 on 1 with Clayton going super in depth No hate towards Ant at all! I still love when they do breakdowns together and when Clayton is brutally honest about Ant's surfing because its relatable to an average joe like me

[@ombesurf]

Expect more of both coming!

[@pete3773]

Crystal clear distinction between the three subjects. So helpful. Thanks.

[@ombesurf]

Stoked to hear this!

[@michaelabarone]

Really enjoy this format. This Uninterrupted lesson was very easy to absorb. Thank you.

[@ombesurf]

Thanks! Glad you're loving it

[@MiguelSoares86]

You break down the topics so eloquently. Great video, thank you guys.

[@LJ-di2qj]

Cheers. This makes so much sense. I get caught up the top a lot at Urbn Surf. Love OMBE. Feel I’m learning more at 50 than o have in 35 years before. 😊

[@mattbarwick2011]

Such a well explained vid. Love all the OMBE content. Love this format of Clay analysis against three average Joes. Please do another vid going backside. I bought their 12 week program a few years back and it has been amazing.

[@ombesurf]

Backside is definitely on our to do list!

Ur one of the best surf coach and analist... greets from germany

[@mattiapedrani4471]

Quality's getting insane! 🔥🤙🏻

[@ombesurf]

Thanks mate! It's something we've been chipping away at and improving everything

[@sandiegotony1966]

Very helpful thank you, do you have tip or technique to get on to the front foot?

[@Tiaguini78]

Great analysis. It is very difficult for the intermediate surfer to understand what is he doing wrong and your explanation makes it perfectly clear. Thank you for your work, I have been learning a lot. It seems have I also have the same problems as all the mention surfers. One thing I noticed when seeing this surfer’s (and myself) is that we all stand to straight on our surfboards, especially on the legs/lower body. Any ideas/tips how we can fix this? Thank you!

[@o.karamalak1205]

thank you, bro, your videos is always super usefull, thanks againe.

[@chopsnz88]

Are there any short verbal cues/mantras or visualizations i.e stay tight to pocket, Look up at lip, draw vertical lines.. that would help keep this as a focus point when surfing?

[@ombesurf]

Sounds like you've just made a few for yourself there already! Whatever connects with you is the most important cue

[@srfpunk8207]

Nice video with good information to be aware of. One question, what wave setting was this surfed in? 🤙🏽

[@titosurf1]

Question for another video : When I make my drop, should I look down the line ? or at the bottom ? because everyone tells me I should not look down at the bottom of the wave because im gonna nose dive, but then I struggle to go vertical...

[@pass_me_the_sugar]

amazing! so helpfull, thank you!

[@humanoide7549]

The problem for average joes like me is that when take off everything goes faster than I can asume. When I finish the wave a lot of times I’m thinking oh shit I didn’t put my hands right or I didn’t put the knees forward or damn! I look down another time. Great video

[@peakmaster3273]

First time I actualy see the notification. 🤙🌴

[@Whazzatt]

ditto

[@meganbrown6581]

What dimensions are best for urban surf on advanced session will be going to Sydney late January have 4 boards that range in length, width, tails etc would be a big help ❤ your vid

[@ombesurf]

I just ride my normal board and it’s fine

[@pete_street]

Excellent vid, thanks again! Just a question on the take off, to get closer to the wall for the bottom turn, is there an element of a drop/leaning slightly on tail so it hits first? I've had a few take offs \where I felt like I was about to nose dive going straight down and it felt like I was a little too much leaning forward for the curvature of the wave near the wall.

[@ombesurf]

Where were you looking during the take off?

[@pete_street]

Glance down line, glance bottom turn location, hold look at lip where I want to go (don't worry I've consumed all OMBE surf tips by osmosis). I can feel the limits of the board rocker at this juncture (medium rockered board,) and have noticed advanced surfers almost air dropping/tail tapping the takeoff. @@ombesurf

[@tylergooden2183]

So many counterintuitive things seem to be the difference between average and excellence

[@joeblow2183]

That was good. Intermediate surfers have a hard time thinking vertical and on unpredictable beach breaks it’s even harder.

[@freeridefried]

Surfer #1 could be me. Not sure how to change though to be more in the pocket.

[@adambamf9365]

i dont think you could wrap a mid legnth like this you need to approach diffrently mybe i think explaining board choice vs critical surfing might add insight for people . awsome vid series mate!

[@ombesurf]

Did you watch our video on Mid lengths? kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2GXgnmYrMeAbposi=Xs8uvbdItzDJww8x

[@jamesbarry9147]

🎉🎉🎉

[@shiverpoolcody]

The third guy - is he guilty of the surf skate wiggle after the first turn?

[@ombesurf]

Possibly, but hard to say where that movement came from, looks like bad fundamentals and awareness of how to do those fundamentals.

[@kabamba8943]

Whoop whoop everyone get your biggest foamies out for Clayton 😅🤙

[@haifa_pro]

47 hours before time lol

[@ombesurf]

Good to see you here early! 😆

[@ETYSURF]

Grow your hair back Clayton you look like a salesman
