How to Surf: The best pop up technique

Steps 5: Often women will say to me, I’d love to learn how to surf but I don’t have anyone to go with and I’d really like some help. Follow us on Instagram @mazarine_aqua for more surfing tips and inspiration and shop our range of amazing women's wetsuits online at https://www.mazarineaqua.com/ As a women I too want to feel supported and to learn in an environment that’s comfortable. Here we’ll do just that, as I run you through the pop technique and show you how to catch a broken wave. To ensure you have the correct foot at the back of the board, ask a friend to stand behind you and give you a gentle push. The foot that naturally comes forward to brace your fall will be your front foot. At the back of your board, place your back foot over the fin plugs, with your toes on a 90 degree angle to the rail and front foot on a 45 degree angle about shoulder width apart. If you stand with your left foot forward that is know as a Regular or natural stance and if you stand with your right foot at the front that is described as a goofy stance. One is not better than the other, it’s purely what feels comfortable for you. Paddling Paddling the surfboard correctly involves using good technique, balance and rhythm. The first requirement is to position your body on the surfboard so that the board is in good trim to the water. To do this, your body weight should distributed correctly to keep the board flat on the water. Chest off the board Head up looking forward Elbow bent Hands cupped Fingers together Smooth and fluid alternative strokes, one at a time alongside the rails Timing To catch a wave you need to match the speed of the oncoming wave when you paddle. It’s common to need 6-8 paddle strokes to build momentum before the wave picks up the back of your board. Pop Up As the board moves forward you will feel the tail lift. Place your hands flat on the deck directly under your armpits and ‘push up’ to arch your back. ‘Twist’ your shoulders to open up your chest. Tuck your toes onto the back of the board, and push off your toes to swing your front foot through between your hands. This is what we call the ‘pop’. I recommend starting out where you can comfortably stand up. This will reduce the amount of paddling you need to do and you’ll fatigue less quickly. Wipe-outs are going to happen, if you embrace the wipe out you will feel more relaxed and will generally pop up in a few seconds. There are a few key techniques that will help reduce the risk of any injury. Emergency stop! If you are riding on your stomach and there is a hazard or another surfer directly in front of you, you need to do an emergency stop. From the prone position transfer your weight to the back of the board, and kneel on the back of the board. Drag your hand in the wave to redirect you either left or right. You should come to a stop quickly. If you are riding the board on your stomach simply slide your hips off the side of the board, place your feet on the ground and stand up, ensure you keep a hold of your board. If you are riding a wave, fall backwards away from the board, do not try to grab it as that’s when things become complicated. Often you will be learning in shallow water so flat as you can. Never dive. Board control when in the ocean A surfboard can be an intimidating piece of equipment, if not handled correctly. Firstly carrying the board, can be awkward and heavy. I suggest selecting a board that fits under your arm or alternatively you can place one rail on your hip and one hand on the far rail to keep it in place. When walking out into the surf, ensure the nose of the board faces directly into the oncoming wave. Like a T. Lift the nose up over the approaching whitewater and jump over the wave at the same time. Never allow your board to become between you and an oncoming wave, it will flick up and hit you. Mount your board - Walk out to about your waist depth and turn your board to face the beach. Mount your board, by placing your chest in the middle of the board and swinging your legs around behind you. Position yourself in the middle of the board and start paddling. Ok, so we have run through the basic technique for catching a wave and popping to your feet. I know there is a lot to remember when you’re first starting, but if you can just remember three simple words, push up, twist, pop it will help to keep it simple.

Good vid! I think these tips will really help, especially with the pop up. I'm 48, female and a snowboarder who recently moved from the mountains to Southern California, and I've always wanted to learn to surf. Hopefully it's not too late. I've got board skills, but I've found that the paddling and pop up wears me out pretty quickly. But I'm not giving up. Surfing has a greater learning curve than other board sports I think.:)

Hi Jonsey, absolutely never too late to learn. Surfing will take time to build up your specific muscles needed for surfing. Agree it has a greater learning curve mainly due to the conditions always changing but as long as you're having fun & working on your fitness then you're winning. Happy surfing : )

Hi, I can surf on a large foam surfboard (I rented this) I'm not sure what board I should go for I'm 14, 5'6 and just over 50 kg. I have good balance from skateboarding and I can pop up ect. I'm from the uk and don't live by the sea however I go to cornwall twice a year for a week each time and other coastal places fairly regularly and want a board that will last and is manoeverable in the water. Plz help? :)

Ashley Zequeida
Ashley Zequeida - 9 years ago
Is it the same technique if my feet don't reach the tail of the board?
this last month i turned from a 8'0 feet foamboard to a 7'0 feet fiberglass funborad and i can't pop up well cause my feet don't reach the tale and I already made some little dents on my new board because I use my knees. (of course i know i dont have to use my knees) PD: are those little dents normal in the boards? PLEEEAAASEEE HEEEELP!!!! :(

+Mazarine Aqua well, i better train more in my old 8 feetboard it was easier than this one.
Mazarine Aqua
Mazarine Aqua - 9 years ago
+Ashley Zequeida Hi Ashley, Those dents are called pressure dings, they are normal if you are using your knees to get up to your feet. If you are having trouble popping up on a 7ft short board, it may be a little too soon for you to decrease the size. What you can do is slide both needs under your chest and step the front foot up, put your weight on your front foot, then stand up and move your back foot into position. Do this until you start feeling more confident with your pop up. Good luck.

I knew it was byron like clarkes/the pass but what is the beach that you can see around 3:08? Is that goldcoast? I also wanted to ask you if you could make a video that focuses solely on shortboard popups, because then you cannot put your toes on the board that is why I think this popup cannot be transposed onto a shorboard. Thanks for answering!
