Ep 48 | How to angle the take-off and common mistakes

In Depth - A Surfing Podcast

Angling the take-off, do you do this already or is this something you want to learn and be better at? Or is this something you are guilty of messing up, either letting the wave race by without you or you end up so far out on the shoulder that you completely miss the wave and any good sections? Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced surfer, there is nuance and a need to figure out the best line you can take to set up the rest of the wave. There are times when to do it and times when not to do it or more, when not to overthink it. It’s all about how to set up that first section and relies heavily on reading the wave and observing what the wave wants to do. There’s no one solution or angle that fits all and your board will also play a big part in the lines you take as well.
