- The push loop scared me for ages and I couldn't find the Balls to hold on and 'go over the top'
In the end in crazy overpowered 3.3 weather I finally managed it... but not in a normal way.
I did it one handed!!

Like I say this is how I learnt the push loop (and Phillip Koster too) so it can work. but build up into it. You have to feel the rotation first.
Love this video Ben! Spot on.
Never tried this Ben but you just boosted my confidence to go out and go for them again, great stuff
Awesome, seriously motivated for this one as it feels like I have been halfway there in some of my early micro backloop efforts. Great video and explanation - love the way that there is a build up and progression to the ultimate goal!
Thanks Ben for this content! Excellent format btw
Thanks!
So good!!!! I can’t wait to get back into it! Thanks Ben
Very nice explanation in how to get the feeling for the move and step by step improve the technique. Definetly will try it. As I work on the shaka quite a bit this would be great to see your tips on that move! Thank you Ben
Great approach for learning the pushy - will go for it this autumn... SEND IT 🤙
Love the tips.
What about some tips about the table top. I do them (even if they're perfectible) on both tacks and according to me, it is the most simple trick once you have the regular jump. No big commitment, little risk of injury, and it's possible to learn them step by step. There's just this moment when you start doing them well enough but you don't totally control the descent and you land flat. There's a risk of ending up with 2 half boards.
+1 for Table-Top! I'd really love to see this. The table-top is definitely on my bucket list, but I don't really know how to get started here. Maybe others have the same issue?
Agreed on table top, it's beautiful to see.
Great tip!! I think I could even try this, all we need now is some wind!! I like the way you break it up into simple steps. All these high end moves happen so quickly its a bit difficult to disect them sometimes.....
Slightly off topic, but for the speed lovers among the viewers, would you consider doing a review on your Corus watch (as it is accepted on gps-speedsurfing). For example, is it possible to see your 5 times 10 sec average which is used for the rankings? You might want to combine it with a quick tips&tricks on doing proper slingshot. Thanks for sharing all this great stuff, really appreciated!
Wow, thanks for this man. I wouldn't have tried a push loop without this approach. I am going to go for it now.
You’re an absolute Lord, cheers!
Great content as always Ben. I can upwind 360 in the straps. I've been trying it from across the wind as well, different sail placement. can't get the confidence to go for a flaka. love some tips. Just spent the the last four years learning to forward so can't believe the fear is back for this move!
Ben.. thank you so much... was wondering the perfect technic to start to pushloop.. and this one looks pretty awesome... you've given me confidence to start on.... thank you...
thank you very much for this video Ben
this sport is so beautiful!!! thanks ben
Hi Ben thanks for the tips. The cheese roll is a great looking move I'd like to learn.
Why did no one told this extremeley helpful tip yet? It makes so much sense and takes away a good part of my Pushloop-anxiety. Gonna try asap!!!
This makes it look so easy, I am definitely going to give it a try, thanks so much for this!! :)
This video is GOLD!!!
Never heard of that tip before, and it make sense. Thx for sharing
Exactly how I learned my pushloop! Perfect tutorial!
Awesome tips Ben. Cheers
Thanks for the tips !!!! 🤙
C'mon Ben! Fantastic!
Awesome tips
Thanks I have understood the move for the first time !!!
Excellent tutorial Ben, excellent work as always!! I think I got some essential tips that will help me to understand this move better!
As a side note, it's a bit sad that these days we are forced to include some "disclaimer" because of some people negative comments highlighting their personal feeling rather than an actual danger. People should be responsible enough at the age of 18 and if they do not want to get injure or take any risk in life, they can just stay in bed.
Yes this is brilliant information, never heard it before. Thanks for getting the footage and paving the way. Now roll on summer in Cape Town! Something I think I'm going to try for sure.
Please make a vulcan video. I have even seen many people do them on wave boards, in the waves. Such a simple move, yet somehow I cannot get them. You can call it: "Freestyling for Aging People"
Thanks you Ben for all those goods tips. Could do something about the surf frontside and aerial please? Is it necssary to read the wave through the window?
Thank you Ben! Awesome content flowing out!!! Also hoping to see your doubles training from Pozo! 👍👍
Cheers mate.. but Don’t get your hopes up on my double training!! 🙈🤣🤣
thanks a lot i will try. I fell like that hundreds of time (esp when. I am overpwred in Backy) but did not realize it could be a good segway for pushies
Awesome Ben.Just need some proper conditions to gout a go now🤙🏼
Great !!! Let's push loop !
Awesome Ben! I am going to learn a stall fwd this season so any tips would be awesome!
Great tips, I will give it a try. Im sure a lot of people would like to see a video on how to Vulcan,
Brilliant Ben! Any chance you can post this mirrored so all the jumps are on starboard... Or would you mind if I did?
Good idea 👍🏻
Having watched this I think I will learn the push loop as my first loop xD
amaziiiiinnngggg
Very nice tip as usual! I'm so motivated After watching this. In m'y mind, the move is passing from "impossible to do" to "why not?" Thanks !!
Epic!!! One on the shaka? Or power moves like burner? Goiter? Ponch? We all need some tips😂
I did one video about the shaka, not as good as ben's video but I think it contains some usefull tips czcams.com/video/H6nJrh7F6bw/video.html
works like a charm
Grande! Great!
I Wonna pushy !! me me me !
I have punched some holes in various sails by going over the top and landing on the sail. Had somewhat given up, but this might just be the golden ticket!
Mission failed succesfully! Tried backlooping with your previous video but couldn't quite get it. Now tried push looping with this video and landed my first backloop. Oh well, won't complain :D
awesome! what I would like to hear is how you guys can sail away in in the footstraps with no speed what so ever. if i try that i m head deep in water😁🤙
What's the difference between a push loop and back loop?
SHAKA PLEASE!!! So frustrating.
Would you say push loop is easier to land than a backloop? Good tips! 🤙
The rule I use is... over powered. - Pushloop. Under powered - Back loop
The push loop is more scary but easier technically
