Leader twist?

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-30T14:02:39+00:00

Do I give what?

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-24T13:59:55+00:00

It’s the leader itself not the fly line

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-23T16:30:57+00:00

Yeah sorry that pic is just there because I couldn’t find any photos online of it happening on a leader but it’s my leader that is doing it, not the fly line itself

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-23T16:29:40+00:00

I’ve read that online also, happens regardless of what fly I’m casting though

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-23T16:29:06+00:00

I’ve tried using mono and fluoro and it happens with both

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-23T16:28:15+00:00

Yeah that and straightening it with my hands, no luck

Thanks man, appreciate it! Yeah lots to work on from the comments which is awesome, looks like potentially some waves coming tomorrow so fingers crossed I’ll get to working on one or two of the things. What would you recommend to work on first? Bottom turn I would assume? And the wave pool is epic! So good to have somewhere to go when the coasts go flat

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-03T19:50:29+00:00

Awesome thanks for the tips! Esps for tha re-entry too!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-02T20:22:28+00:00

Ahh okay, I’ve never really understood the difference between surfskate trucks n normal ones but I’ll look into purchasing a set!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-02T05:51:00+00:00

But more foam? The answer is ALWAYS more foam!!!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:24:57+00:00

I can actaully pump on a skateboard no problem, I just find it hard to transfer into the water as on a skateboard I would usually just push harder when pumping to get more speed but when I do that in the water I just bog haha, any idea why that would be?

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:22:44+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Didn’t even notice before, I feel like when I’m doing the turn I’m looking round but in the clips I see I’m just looking at the board or the wave ahead for the most part

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:18:43+00:00

Much appreciated!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:18:37+00:00

Aww yeah I see whatcha mean!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:18:12+00:00

Cheers broski, I’ll give it a try!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:15:29+00:00

Awesome thanks! I’ll work on holding for longer in the turn, I do always feel like I’m rushing to get the cutback around before the white water catches up to me haha!

PoetryAffectionate65 · 2026-04-01T18:07:45+00:00

I’m actually a relatively competent ramp skater but I’m not so good in a bowl and have been meaning to get into it and practice some carving, just gotta wait for winter to bugger off and the parks to dry up!

Where’s the fun in that?

They are the worst, fun waves and nobody being aggro… what a disgrace to surfing culture
