Oto Kage - 5 years ago

ty for the video. I wonder if you raise your chest mostly using your arms, or mostly by arching your lower back, or mix of both. Because I feel that if I use too much arms then I'm going to sink the front of the board into the water...

+How to Rip Ty friend

How to Rip - 5 years ago

Mixture of both but board should be moving fast enough to not sink

This comment is cute and sexy

You are so helpful

Randy Evermore - 6 years ago

All good stuff, but it would help a great deal to see some examples of popping up without using your toes (i.e., as you would on a shorter board). It's hard to tell whether you're using your toes in this video.

Great vids, i was thinking a vid on footwork would be great, covering all aspects of it from tube riding and simple carving but to show how it changes as conditions change and different types of waves. If its already been done i havent been able to find any. Thanks

How to Rip - 6 years ago

Difficult to show visually without an annoying GoPro attachment but we will try

Perth haha

Albert Muscat - 6 years ago

But are you pressing down on the rails or on the sides when you’re popping up from the board?

How to Rip - 6 years ago

Not really because the board should be planing enough to not be sinking that much. The top half of the board should easily be riding high.

CW Rodriguez - 6 years ago

probably not the best habit. when your fingers curl around the board they catch in the water and slow you down

How to Rip - 6 years ago

Side of the board generally. The fingers may curl over the side a little

Connor Pearson - 6 years ago

This is more of a how to pop up video. The takeoff is more about positioning and wave reading. When the wave is too flat, when its too late, when to go left or right..what a closeout looks like...paddling to the peak...arching your back on a shortboard to make late takeoffs and make steeper waves.

How to Rip - 6 years ago

You’re right. I’ll do a more in depth version next week

JamesonScalia - 6 years ago

Great video!

Bill Orr - 6 years ago

Thanks for the useful tips Kale ! using the burpee for the quick pop up is a good visual ! subscribed to your ch from SoCal's San Clemente area. Cheers !

How to Rip - 6 years ago

So awesome! Thanks a bunch. I love SC so much!! Gotta get back there soon

Roger Pye - 6 years ago

Hey Kale, can you give some tips/advice in honing the take-off looking down the line rather than looking straight down or at your feet. It seems not as easy as perhaps it could be. Thanks.

How to Rip - 6 years ago

The finer details of taking off
Video coming soon Roger !

Nate Daniels - 6 years ago

where are you based out of?

How to Rip - 6 years ago

We are Sydney and Adelaide based

I would love a video with tips to generate speed without looking like a crazy rabbit like many surfers, hopping up and down furiously to make a section. God that’s ugly.

Brad SGF - 6 years ago

Great Video Kale, I would love a video of you breaking down your quiver, with fins, the differences between fins, thruster vs quad, differences in sizes, FCS vs futures, and lastly what you enjoy most! Thanks love the work, Brad Stewart

THE PHOENIX - 6 years ago

I agree with Brad, great suggestion!

How to Rip - 6 years ago

Thanks Brad!! Once my new house is set up I will shoot this video for you!! Perhaps a special expert guest might be appropriate for this one too :)
