Nice instruction. But for anyone watching now fyi - wearing contacts in water is not recommended. It can lead to infections and permanent loss of vision - unless of course you can find and afford a corneal transplant.

If you really have to use them I'd say remove the lenses right after the water activity and "discard" them - then rinse your eyes with clean water and add some antibiotic eye drops. This is not medical advise - just what I think is a reasonable thing to do.

One thing that always baffles my mind is how do people see in the water? Or is it just a feeling you trust that helps you navigate through the water? I don't even know how to swim, I've tried and I'm still struggling with it. Long journey ahead, but it's all so fun and exciting! I've got water a phobia that doesn't help with my breathing technique and swimming, but I love being in the water, just not my head. So it's amazing and quite inspiring seeing people who surf and go as far as they can :)

Excellent tutorial. Can you believe there was a time before this was invented? I remember Richard Davis brought this to our crowd in '77. He had just come back from Cal., from a contest and saw it there. He was a great contest surfer. So he started duckdiving, and it caught on super quick.I was a grom just a little younger than R.D. However, I had an older brother by 11  years who had a clique of friends who resisted duckdiving.
  So one time me and 2 friends were paddling out trailing my brother and his crew. When we got to them they were just coming up to the impact zone, it wasn't big, some shoulder high wind chop. Well we all started to get beaten and needless to say me and my buds sailed right through it. I looked back in between beatings and laughed and pointed to them, 'see? It works.' They started practicing on that very session. It was early '78 and about one-third of the crowd had caught on by then, us groms and R.D.'s clique. It was like watching anthropology unfold before your eyes.)))

+Razuu This goes to my theory... How do you define a shortboard? Answer: If you can properly duck dive it, it is a short board for you. So the same board could be a short board for a big heavy brah, but a long board for a skinny little kid.

+Tony Montana been wearing contacts in the water no problem and know a lot of others who do as well. what else can you do aside from a corrective surgery? much safer to see what's going on around you so you don't endanger yourself and others than be afraid of the tiny chance of an infection. now, if your eye is in any way injured, it's a different story, in which case you wouldn't want to wear any contacts anyway. also, daily contact lenses are recommended.

I admire you Holly!! Thank you so much for your instruction & talent to help all of us not get injured. I never thought about trying it in my pool. I have a 7'8 hand shape & the 8' Wave Storm. I can come up with a billion excuses for not trying. The #1 reason is my bones are fragile, wrists, elbows, knees are boney, am in menopause at almost 53 yrs old & weigh under 100 lbs soaking wet. Pop ups are still a problem. Any suggestions? Tnx from sunny Palm Bch Gardens, FL. Peri

hey there. unfortunately with the boards you are riding and your self-proclaimed strength issues, it's going to be super hard/impossible for you to duckdive. what you should do is turtle roll! i also posted a video on how to do that. check it out!

I've been surfing so long I can remember a time when this didn't exist.One of the rippers here brought it back.The older dudes scoffed at this technique.It caught on in no time after the grom crew (me and my crew) were blasting through the paddle-out and the older dudes were getting dogged.This was in 1979.It was funny because my older brother was part of that group that resisted at first.I remember looking at these cats struggle and I looked over at my bro as I shot past them with 3 of my buds,who were less talented than the older guys. They got out faster and believe it or not,schooled the older guys at that moment.From then on,the turtle was extincted.

Life is long my love; do what you can. Do yoga at home to stay in shape. Tons of free videos online. Ali Kamenova is awesome. I started this way and now I surf, ski, bike, swim, dance, camp- everything I have ever wanted to to do. Learn whatever you can from your parents. They have life long wisdom to offer. Look for the good in them and love them! Hold onto and visualize your dreams daily and awesomeness will come to you!

my parents didnt do sport either, they supported it so maybe i had it a little bit easier on that part, but no matter what there is always some sort of sport around you you can partake in, sure surfing, snowboarding and dirtbiking take lots of money and dedication not to mention a high fitness level, but volleyball, basball, staff, archery, cycling,skateboarding, gym, martial arts......and LOADS of others are pretty accessible to anyone, if you want to do sport and you arent then you are dedicated enough
Shy Diarrhea
Shy Diarrhea - 10 years ago
How can you say she has no dedication? Have you met her before? Maybe she just hasn't been raised in a active environment where her family partakes in these sorts of activities. Don't be so inconsiderate.
Charlie Ward
Charlie Ward - 10 years ago
I cant even respond any more, you can easily do sport, if its too hard for you to get off your ass and organize it then your probably not cut out for any sport anyway, most sports takes hundreds of dollars( so lots of working) and lots of dedication, you have no dedication and you dont seem to like the idea of working for stuff so i cant help you and no one else can until you stop making up excuses and at least START trying to do a sport

The only person looking like a fool is you for insulting someone giving you advice in a cordial manner. Therefore continue to live dreaming and wishing instead of doing and i will continue to keep doing instead of hiding behind a PC moaning,making excuses and insulting those with advice.

Its no wonder

+The Kruxed I don't know about you, but I have very strict parents. I'm not even allowed to go on a walk by my self. I have quads. The problem is, is that I no longer live on my property. Therefore, I can't ride anymore. Not to mention, the only other place I rode was just closed to the public a few months ago. Obviously I have thought out my options before I made this post. So before you continue to make yourself even more ignorant, I'd suggest you stop commenting. Because you're doing nothing but making yourself look like a fool.

She is just saying she wishes that she had the ability to do action sports and such but you guys have to go be assholes. yes she can be proactive and go do it but not everyone can just "get off their ass and do it." Im just lucky that i have been raised on a coastal area. So no hate guys haha. On the internet.. no body is safe.
Charlie Ward
Charlie Ward - 10 years ago
well my first dirtbike counted for 2 chistmas presents and a birthday present and i worked my ass off aswell to earn money to contribute and i was NINE, first skateboard i worked to pay for, first longboard i made myself and volleyball?! you seriously need a car and money for volleyball? 5 dollars for a ball and some friends and ur done, basicly get a part time job and ask for contributions on birthdays etc and go and find friends to do it with, there is no excuse, if u try hard enough you can do sport
The Kruxed

Not sure how things work over there or even what the area is like, but there is a thing called public transport and in this age of internet you really have it easy to find things out, hook up with people nearer the coast similar age

volleyball and quads would be easy to find just about anywhere if your not allowed to travel far.

When i was 16 me and my mates would organise mini buses to go where we needed. Your at the age wheres it not unreasonable to think that you will know people with licenses now/soon.

So if you have a longer board, just forget it? Too much of a chance of eating it?
Only true if you don't practice.
There are other videos showing guys giving instruction and demo'ing the 'tilt' method with longboards (like Holly touches on at the end). They don't eat it and they do it as well as duck diving with a short board. Practice makes perfect.
