I surf everyday but only record on go pro every couple of weeks. Will apply this breathing technique. I have been learning the techniques on the carver. I recently learnt the feeling of the frontside bottom hand turn and how to generate some power by touching the concrete/water with my hand. I also noticed the cutback is improving although is hard to establish balance between frontfoot and backfoot. I can feel the chest over my knee and turning of my hips helps.. I will post up on the carver skate and a vid to show my progress soon. Its so much fun. I just have to limit my use as I have osteoarthritis in my right knee. I can do 20 minutes training on the carver skate, anymore and my knee swells ;)
