Nice! It’s been tough getting a longboard underwater for a dive, but what
you’re showing obviously works great! Thanks for the demo
Duck diving a longboard.
need help duck diving on 6’10 board shaped like a shortboard. Can I try
this technique and will it work in waves 5ft or so…?
@NYSexyRexy- if you’re unable to dip a 6’10 shortboard it may be that the
board is too wide and thick or you simply need to go to the gym or start
doing some push-ups. This technique is used for boards that are long and
wide.
Hey nice video, you seem to be getting nice clearance under the wave with
your technique, I’m 75kg and ride an 8″6 mini-mal, is this method still
effective in waves 4ft and over? At the moment bailing the board is the
most effective way for me to minimise being pushed back to shore when the
set waves roll through. It upsets the short-boarders sometimes!
awsome board awsome video thank you!!!
now, i want to see you duck diving teahupoo…
Ummmm… Okay. Thanks for the random useless comment. This video just so
happens to highlight how to help out longboards frustrated with their
current technique of getting through small to mid-size waves. If someone
has to search how to duckdive Teahupo’o I’m assuming their shitty surfers
to begin with. But hey, next time I just do happen to be in Tahiti I’ll
make sure I GoPro the shit outta that surf trip.
where is this filmed?
You make that look way to easy dude…
It’s amazing how you can see all aspects of the technique you describe,
from dropping an edger first, and then toeing down the back of the board.
Thanks for the great vid.
ahahaaha
yeah just got rid of my hair. Flip my head still. I guess its mainly to get
the water off your face.
Great Tip!!! I’m 6’6″ and 250 and just got a 10′ longboard (been on hybrid
boards for a while now-never had a real longboard but I really love it).
Wasn’t crazy about turtle rolls but I am going to practice this. Thanks
again!!
Where is this?
flips his hair like he has some lol
Didn’t think it could be done
Well it looks like he tilts to the right everytime to get the actual tip
underwater. I mean I still turtle when I do longboard, but I really gotta
try this out
hey mate, thanks so much for sharing this. I’m still a begginer and your
vid is giving me an idea about how to dive my 7′ 6″ 🙂
Ive heard about the technique, thanks for the demo; cleared alotta problems
up
I totally flip my head as if I have hair. I surfed for about 14 years with
hair and then shaved my head and haven’t had hair since. Yet I still flip
my head. I can’t explain it.
I’m 6.3 about 215lbs, I ride a 10.2 And can barely duck dive the front end.
Good job bro!
Nice vid. I’m excited to give it a try. I’m a big guy 6’4″ 265 and use the
same technique on my 7’0″ “shortboard”. Having to turtle roll has always
made me not want to longboard especially on big days but I’m grapping a
9’4″ Aipa BBS and give this a shot. Thanks man!
some guy died from trying to duck dive teahupoo
Nice surfing, How long is your board and whats your height and weight?
Thanks
