Today I will teach you how to bend your knees correctly.


I think I’m bending my knees properly.
Just bending your knees is not enough.
If you bend your knees correctly, you will be stable on the surfboard.


What about me?
How you bend your knees is similar to a squad.
It’s a mistake to squad.

Wrong knee bending
・You are not stable on the surfboard.
Correct knee bending
・You are stable on the surfboard.
Wrong knee bending
I will explain in the case of regular footer.
The way you bend your knees looks like the figure below.
Many beginners are like this.




The knees are bent firmly.
What’s wrong?
Your body is in the middle of your legs.
It’s similar to a squad.
It is still stable on land.
But what part of the surfboard do you put your foot on?


The back foot is on the traction pad and the front foot is in the middle of the surfboard.
Exactly.
Surfers place their feet behind the center of the surfboard.
There is no buoyancy in the tail part.
Therefore, it is not possible to load evenly with both feet.

Correct knee bending


This is the correct way to bend your knees.
The body is not in the middle of both feet.
Load in the middle of the surfboard.
This place is the most buoyant and stable.


I see.
Certainly, it’s not a squad.
Please tell me the tips.
Twist your back knee and bend it a lot. At the same time, twist your body forward.
Please imitate the figure with both hands.

Check the same posture from a different angle.



Please actually imitate this position on land.


It’s a difficult position.
Practice a lot on land.
That way you will be fine on the waves.
