Definitely keep a good speed paddling, no stop n start like you said... But a good thing i learned when waves got a bit of a steep drop is to angle board a bit to allow board to fit into wave better. On flatter waves you can almost paddle straight in, and angle in once your up n riding. It's also good to try to catch waves as soon as possible to sorta prime yourself for getting more waves. I notice a lot of beginning surfers sitting not trying for waves so they prob miss more opportunities to catch waves. So try to catch waves early in the sesh, and wave count increases.
Really helpful, thanks. Especially reading the tip starting to go under as a sign to pop up rather than panic and back off
I’ve looked at tons of surfing instructional videos and yours are the only ones that I’ve been able to actually implement and work in the ocean. I’m going to try this out to help get rid of my nose diving. Thanks Ben!
Taking these tips to the wave this weekend thanks
Ben, I’m so glad I found your vlog! Clear, concise and very helpful foundations to build on. Thanks mate!
Stoked that you're finding them helpful!! Really appreciate the feedback, thanks for the support, yeww!
thanks so much! your videos are always SO helpful!!
My absolute pleasure!! So so stoked you’re finding them useful, really appreciate the feedback and support - yewww!!!
Great advice pin pointing the timing of the hard paddle
thank you this was a great video! I love how you said to use the nose dive to our advantage! very good tips. thanks for your help
Stoked you found it helpful!!! Thanks so much, yewww 🙏🤙
Great tip with use of chest! This is prob good option for rollers as you need as much forward momentum as possible.
Thank you, Ben. This is a very valuable info for me because I catch only 0,5% of all waves I'm paddling for. This is a bit frustrating. I would say that I empty the tank too far before the wave reaches the tail and because of not catching it I go more to the inside where the wave is steeper and I nosedive. Both tip's, paddling hard when the wave is at the tail and to see nosediving as a sign to pop up instead of pulling back are very helpful.
It helped! Now I know that I'm not unfit or too old (58), Thanks God ;-)
SO good! Stoked you were able to see some results with this! Really important to make the most of that crucial part of the wave when the wave is just beginning to lift us, can be odd at the start but keep going with it, I've found its made a huge difference for a lot of the surfers I coach 1 on 1, thanks heaps for sharing and your support, yewww!!!
Man, it 10pm but I feel like I need to get in and try this immediately. Thank you!
Good stuff! It’s so tough to stay in parking shape, especially in the off season. Can you send some training videos our way?🙏
Thanks for the tip very helpful
No worries at all James!! Stoked it was helpful 🙏🤙
Here’s a lesson suggestion; the flick off at the end of a wave you do. I just can’t sus it properly. Always an adept looking manoeuvre!
You’re a good teacher
Cheers Daniel!!! Really appreciate that 🙏🤙
Thank you, this was great!! As soon as there are waves to try this on I will be out there giving it my best go
No worries at all Kate!! Hopefully it’s useful for you - would love to know how it goes!! Yewww 🙏🤙
@BenConsidine Hi Ben, I've managed to get out afew times now, and after being advised to be much further up the board then i was used to, and your video I've been getting far more waves, and getting in them early!! Thank you for your help
This is exactly the problem I'm actually facing. The waves are very soft, I nose dive very often taking off late because I cannot catch it earlier.
I will try to follow your advice.
I hope it is able to help your surfing!!! If you have any further questions at all or wanted more depth/clarity on anything please don't hesitate to message - email is longboardcoaching@outlook.com if you did :)
Never thought about the tail of the Board as I’m trying to catch a wave. Genius
Hi Ben, thanks for this nice video😊💪🏻 quick question? How does your advice compare to the „oreo biscuit“ technique from OMBE training? They clearly say that you shouldn‘t put down your head and chest to gain speed
Ombe technique is nice for short boards and the wave shapes are steep. long boards boards have lots of float and surface area and waves might not be suitable for Oreo technique . I would try both techniques and let us know what your experience is.
Great stuff. More drop knee turn vids please :D:D
You got it!
Love your channel. Do you use turtle/eskimo rolls much when getting out the back? I've been trying them more lately in bigger conditions, and they just never feel right. Looking around my break, it seems most people aren't doing them right either. I commonly see people hold their boards above the water, getting them ripped from their hands, and other ridiculous things. Only a couple of the older longboarders do legit-looking ones. Any tips? Thanks!
The key thing that a coach showed me was to make sure the nose of the boards gets under the white wash, and you can assist this by almost javelining the board before you go under the water. They also showed that you make a T instead of being parallel to the board, so that your body is way under the water and this helps sink the board too if the nose gets under the whitewater.
cool
Yewww!!!
Which would be the technique for a little bigger waves with more power more steep and with a first steep critical fast section?
I'm using the "tube" pop up technique but I would like to know how to catch the wave earlier easier before the critical section so I can try to execute manuevers there or just cruise fast passing that section
I’d be popping up at the tail and engaging the rail early, using a slight angle when paddling into the waves! As for ensuring it’s not too steep when you’re catching it that all comes into reading waves and positioning for the waves , I have a good little video I’ll link here if you wanted to check that out - hope that’s helpful!!! 🙏🤙

@@BenConsidine thank you!
Helpful observations and examples for this beginner.
One suggestion: when showing the examples, I wanted to see more of the example itself. But you kept cutting back to yourself talking. I wonder if you could just stay in the example video you are showing using voiceover, and just start / stop / rewind / highlight as your describing things.
Thanks for all the ideas!
Hi Ben, I was wondering where' s the best placement of our feet whilst paddling into a wave. I heard somewhere that you have your toes just touching the end of the tail. I'm sue it depends on the hight and steepness of the wave . I'd be interested to hear your general opinion . I have a 9'6 mal. Thanks for that I really enjoy you channel.
Awesome question, and it will depend on the wave a little bit. The general rule is toes on the tail but really its a bit further forward than that for the most part (if you've got a 9'6) and will depend on a few things regarding rocker and wave type. I've had a few questions on this so I think I'll also follow this up more in depth in a future tip time! Thanks heaps for the question and your support! Yewww
A little body shimmy up and a down the board when needed depending on wave size have been helpful for me. Useful to get weight over the front of the board when small or weight to the tail on larger hollower waves. That’s on my 9 4”.

😂 Paddling shape!
Hey Lance!! I also just wanted to check you received my email from the glide surf collective - just wanting to make sure they're not going into the 'junk' email section. Thanks so much!
How come some experts advise leaning back and putting pressure on the trail when the wave reaches you (the oreo biscuit technique) and other experts (such as yourself) advise leaning forward.
The 2 approaches seem to be the opposite of each other and yet experts seem to make both work???
Hey! Its a confusing one but both are focussing on slightly different points of the paddling process. The way I like to think of it is if you were leaning back on the tail and not really paddling that hard for a wave that isn't close to breaking you'll be unable to catch it, and this is what the chest down approach is looking to solve - a lot of pressure to drive momentum in for the paddle when the wave is more difficult to catch. The oreo biscuit from what I understand although I havn't spoken to Clayton directly is for a steeper wall closer to pitching/breaking in which case its the perfect method - and the chest in approach may even lead to a nosedive. So really it comes down to how steep the wave is in the initial paddling phase - fairly flat = press the chest in, fairly steep = oreo biscuit. I know I rambled a lot there so I hope that makes sense and can help haha - if you have any further questions at all or wanted more depth/clarity on anything please don't hesitate to message - email is longboardcoaching@outlook.com if you did :)
@@BenConsidine thanks so much! This makes a lot of sense 🙏🏽🤩
@@MrWatshisface no worries at all, yewww!!! 🤙🙏🙏
Why are you moving your feet when paddling ?
Does it help to get more speed ?
I always keep my legs flat when paddling. Is it a mistake ?
Thanks for your vids
Hey!!! Yeah it can be confusing haha, good paddling technique is typically legs still, to generate more drive in your paddling for waves though we can actually rotate the body slightly as we pull through the water to generate more power and depth of paddle, and with this we kick the opposite leg which seems to help rock the body to that side of the rail and place more pressure into the chest on the board vs having the legs still. So its definitely something to playt around with - its a progression I give poeple to develop more power with their paddle ONCE their standard padding technique is looking good, we can definitely become limited by never moving the legs in this way haha. I hope thats somewhat helpful!!! 🙏🤙
The sooner you stand, the sooner you are surfing.
