getting air 18 years 9 months ago #7945

last sunday i went surfing in my s:6 190 and was trying to fathom out how to get air in my boat, i managed it once or twice but it felt uncomfortable so it got me thinking about my technique, i was wondering if there is a certain technique to getting air, i can blunt, cartwheel and do the other non air tricks but this seems to have beaten me any help with this would be great

Ken Whiting has a great video on these kind of issues called Playboating with Ken Whiting

But, ofcourse, as we all know, best way to get air IN your boat is to eat spicy or beans or something.

In short, to get air you need:

1. A big fast wave where you can set up on top of and generate speed down the face of the wave.

2. When you are speeding down the face of the wave you will need to bounce. For a good bounce drive the edge of you boat in the green water and it will bounce up powerfully.

3. Throw you move. If you bounced on your right edge you will need to throw your moves to the left.

Happy blunting!
