Stage B Positioning & Catch Unbroken Waves

Adapt how you catch waves according to the seafloor, surf conditions & equipment.

Do a proper spot check & sit at the optimal location for your objectives.

Use the precise slope to get enough acceleration to catch unbroken waves.

Position into the precise wave slope by looking back & readapting your position.

When “lifted” up on the wave, keep your head low to put weight over the board’s nose.

Once gliding with the wave, give 2 extra paddle strokes before taking off.

Get in the cobra pose & take off at the top 2/3 of the wave.

Predict how a wave will peel. Imagine when & where to paddle for it.
