  • Wow. It's good free info and people are complaining...lame. He's plugging his company...what's wrong with that?

  • OK I GOT IT!! YOU LIVE IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH FLORIDA!!!!!

  • i get it now but i hate that these vids r soooo short!!

  • "Ok I'll be right back" Where the hell is he going?

  • Why can't you film this inside? Since you don't use water yet, we could at least understand you better! But I learned a lot from this video's, especially about balance.

  • The movement in the ideal time to get up on a surfboard is to place both feet parallel and knees slightly bent. The method of turning the front foot is difficult due to the adherence of the wax. This becomes a bad habit in hollow waves

  • hes doing it wrong

  • better than my sister teaches me lol :} ha

  • @samonthecreek @justdrummin5.

    I'm born an raised in Bondi, Sydney, Australia. It SUCKS for surf, but has it's own show and everything.

    2ft on most days.

    Tamarama's better (next beach). Many great spots in OZ though. Northern beaches of Sydney are sweet as is the Gold Coast. Having travelled and surfed the U.S I would say that Cali's great, Florida too.

    Depends on where, and the day & tide really!

    My opinion is that Indonesia's the best I've seen and been part of!

    Uluwatu Kills it!!
