Technique

Christian and Karine are back again, and they have two new moves for you to learn! First up, they are refining your beach start with the two-footed approach, no more awkward hopping around with one foot in. This is all about dropping the board and springing on in one smooth movement. Then they move on to the beach bounce transition, full of fun, a few inevitable slow-motion wipeouts along the way, but once you have it dialled, you will be in complete control.

Some time has passed since we last covered a move that fits into the loosely labelled hooked-in freestyle category. Not everyone is keen on unhooking for various reasons, whether it be the conditions they ride in, the kit they own, the potential consequences, or even that it just doesn’t rock their boat - but that doesn’t mean that freestyle moves...
