Take-off Training

Sometimes it is really necessary to do some take-off training with our beginners. To train it in advance on the grass will be very helpfull in the water so you don´t have to think – just act! See here some pictures of our last session…

Paddling, paddling, make a hollow back… one more paddel stroke, head down..and juuuuump!

Hmmmmh…look at that…and make sure that the hands (and bottom) are correctly in a “surfing-USA”-position!

To improve the timing of the take off (one of the most important things) the wave was simulated by a towel… the one who is too slow get towelled really hard :-)
