What's in the Guide

Fault 1: Eyes Down

Why staring at your feet or the nose keeps you a beat behind every wave — and the "Point & Go" drill that fixes it in a single session.

Fault 2: The Tail Anchor

The most common intermediate fault. Weight stuck on your back foot, bogging the board — and how shifting forward unlocks instant glide.

Fault 3: The Two-Stage Pop-Up

That knee-to-deck pause before you stand is costing you every steep wave. The one-motion drill that removes it for good.

Fault 4: Straight to Shore

Why taking off square to the beach traps you in dying foam — and how to read the peel and angle onto the open face.

Fault 5: Quiet Arms, Locked Hips

How a frozen upper body kills your rotation and turn power — and the lead-with-your-eyes sequence that puts the drive back in.
