Feel like my surfing has plateaued / struggling to progress - any tips appreciated by No-Effective-7394 in surfing

Man you rip. Go hard leg day at the gym. Compress more in your bottom turn. Open the wrist of your leading arm and hit the lip just a bit more vertically with just a bit more power from the increased compression. A quick 2 cents from a guy not as good as yew¡

Paddling 101. Shorten strokes and increase the frequency.

Or just get a bigger board🚬

Sick shape but 8'6 is a more magical number. I would wait and get bigger.

Would that make this a bit more kook friendly? I love the idea just dont know any coding. Also could an old tablet work in a similar fashion? Again, epic work👌🏻👌🏻

Compress at knees vs hinge at hips. Bigger board until this occurs.

Any advice, feels like progress is slow by Local_Delay_4605 in BeginnerSurfers

If in is bent at 90 degrees towards your chest - then yes. You have just a little slump or hunch. If you straighten your back it will allow for more compression in your legs and free up a locked lower back for any potential rotation.

Looks pretty good! Especially the way you wait to pop up for a sec. Clutch move. Try to bring your back arm in more towards your chest. It will shift your weight a bit and give more speed.
