Great tutorial and probably a real game changer for a lot of surfers. Most of us aren't even conscious of it while we do it even though it leads to many missed opportunities. Thanks for the quality content. Cheers

Another set of excellent explanations of why, not just do. Also, the aerial rear view shows another useful angle for popping up. Can you do a zoom in version of this, please. Thanks

[@barefoot_surf]

Thanks @Barry yeah you are right that one is interesting, will have to shoot this one again from closer.

[@carolina-hk1nd]

@@barefoot_surf by telling me to look up for the pop up and suddenly I dont struggle to pop up anymore. I have been surfing for 7 years and no teacher helped me to improve

[@barefoot_surf]

great one

[@nikkihicks8212]

what size of board do you recommend for a 5’2 person switching from a long board to a storyboard

[@nikkihicks8212]

i meant short board

[@alikajohnson9250]

Weight, time surfing and length of old board? Can always go to a mid length first too. Volume important too

Hi, I've been following this channel since last year and everything in your videos has always been spectacular. The sessions are great, there are several funny moments, the explanations are very clear... this channel is absolutely brilliant and you helped me a lot with the majority of my curiosities about the world of swimming and surfing, thank you so much. Anyway, I would like to make a suggestion (if it's not a problem): I'm convinced that to add a really funny video on your channel, you could make a compilation of all of the moments where you or your friends get "caught" on video while peeing in the water (my uncle relieved himself in a scuba diving session and that was hilarious), it's something like a "oops moments" compilation, what do you think? I'd be so so happy to watch it, let me know, bye!

Where is this filmed?

[@barefoot_surf]

Hi Jim, mostly in Central America and Indonesia!

[@miguelangel3254]

I can only arch my back on my first couple of strokes, then I have to put my chin on the board or else I can't catch the wave.
