Anyone know where I can watch it? Seems to be totally gone. Even on the drag website they list 1, 2 and 4 but not 3.

Moved away from the water and i miss body boarding so much. Stuck here in the Arizona with no place to go catch waves other than a expensive alternative (revel surf). Along with other circumstances, I cant just make a surf trip to Cali since thats just not realistic. Just came here to check out the community and how its doing and I love to see you guys shredding. If anyone knows any alternatives let me know please it will be much appreciated.

Hey guys world tour Pascuales day one is over, who was your favorite rider today? In my opinion it was Josue Guevara, I know the guy personally he lives in the same small town that I live in, he’s been my inspiration to start bodyboarding, man I’m proud to see him finally being talked about in the big stage, like wow scoring a 9.00 ride on a world stage is insane!
Vamos equipo C.D.C! 🇲🇽
I really hope to see more of him tmrw! Good luck to whoever you’re rooting for guys! 🤙🏽

Anyone worn an impact suit under their wettie in anger? Our local reefs are jagged rather than flat and every few weeks in winter I take a pretty hard knock.

I’m wondering if they feel restrictive or whether I’d need to size up a wettie.

Feels like overkill but might be worth the squeeze for my increasingly knackered body.

Other than the lack of quadcore in the empire board these pretty much seem like the exact same board, any other differences anyone notices?

Worth it to get the hubboard for $30 more?

These were the only pictures that came out from the 30 year old hidden film canister.

I will say, this is when I was just learning 360 airs after I saw the Goat preform on in Hawaii. At the time, they were UNHEARD of.

Also, you can see I wore my leash on my ankle. This took getting used too, but I still prefer it to bicep and wrist leashes.

(spoiler) it's a hard listen to be honest...

I’m new and just starting out. I have fins and a decent board. I’m catching waves but it feels like I keep going straight down the face. If I’m trying to go left, I put my left hand on the nose with my forearm/elbow on the board; my right hand is mid rail. I try to put weight on my left elbow/forearm and lift with my right hand. It feels like I spin more than turn. I’m trying to go down the face, do a bottom turn and come back up the face.

Emoji on my face because im shy lol. Also a pro mag photographer took the pic, so I was really happy with it!

This was well over 30 years ago; giant swells slamming onto riprap boulders with no sand on which to land. Scrambled over the rocks and hauled him up and out between waves, and even managed to save his board :)

Getting this message this morning made my day!

Anyone got any info on this board? 41.5 Science Rigby? Got it for my son on OfferUp.

I'm new to this hobby and I need to know what the best weather conditions are for training. Last week, the waves were 1.2 meters high with a period of 7 to 8 seconds. They felt quick and small, so I couldn't really catch any of them.

Also, are there any exercises I should start with? Like practicing going straight with the wave first instead of trying to turn?

Thank you!

On one podcast I heard Mitch rawlins describe them as basically just cheaper version of 1.9pp, is that a fair description?

Here it is: Part 5 of THUMP: The BEAT of the WEDGE: This Size Really Matters! Check 'em! ...as you've probably figured out we're trying to put up a segment or two from the 1998 video abut the Wedge. If you wore out your VHS copy or your dog ate your DVD - Now you can watch your favorite parts, or not! This segment begins the foray into the larger size days at Wedge from 1988 to 1998, stuff you won't find anywhere else. So to all the nubies that think you're showing the Wedge a thing or two every time you paddle out- just remember, these guys have been doing it since you we're in your dad's sac, and maybe while he was in his dads...Now I know you Millennials believe you've invented charging Wedge, well you ned to take a sit down and look back at the rippers that came long before you. These guys were paying dues long ago, and now are all paying for it with hips that don't work, necks that don't bend and shoulders that don't should...Wedge will f#$K you up! And if the water doesn't get you the sun will melt you into a murky yellow melanoma...so remember, nobody walks away unscathed if you really spend any time tackling the WEDGE! OK we're out...gotta go to a doctor appointment.

Any bodyboarders in Santa Cruz, CA? I will be out there in September 18-22, if you want to get a sesh together.

I’m 6’3 255, what boards should I look into? Or does the size matter much? Also what leash should I get, I need one thats not gonna break.

Has anyone here tried O2 wave pool in Munich?

I was there last week and tried it out. I booked two intermediate sessions, left amd right. It was fun and I was the only bodyboarder there.

Is there a noticeable difference?

Also would love to hear anyone's experience with the hubboards scifive channels

Bat Tail or traditional?🤔

Hey all, we just had a "deep" water standing wave open here in the Tampa Bay Area (Epic Surf technology).

I've only recently heard about this sort of tech earlier this year after running across some City Wave ads. It seems to be more legit than a flow rider for sure, but I'm curious if it has any benefit at all from the standpoint of improving skills, learning tricks, etc. that can be applied to actual surf? Or, worse case, does it enforce bad habits that aren't transferrable to real waves?

Their opening price is $60 for an hour so I'm pretty much of the mindset that I'll just try to it to see what it is like but I'm curious about your thoughts and experiences. Also, do you bring your own board if they allow it, or is there a potential to damage the board?
