If you’re stoked on the swell but not so stoked on how you feel getting back in the water, you’re not alone. Now that the swell is finally back after a slow start to the summer, it’s normal to feel a little rusty and dusty getting back on smaller boards in powerful, performant waves…

If you want to get back out there with power, style and conviction in your surfing, Next Level’s online coaching is for you. Whether you’re trying to get shacked at the Pass or tubed at Tallows, investing in your surfing with a strategy is essential to see growth and blast past your plateaus.

Sometimes all it takes is an expert eye to analyze your surfing and offer insight into things you might have never noticed. Send in your video today at the link in our bio so you can get back out there!!

Fear is a natural part of surfing. It keeps us from harms way, but it also keeps us from achieving our full potential. When we learn to acknowledge fear as a visitor, and equip ourselves to handle it when it comes knocking, we can truly break through our comfort zone in the water.

If you find yourself pulling back, sitting on the shoulder, or shying away, you’re not alone. There’s always a fine line where we can safely stretch our comfort zone, which is where an expert eye can really help. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of coaching to get you in the right mindset and proper physical preparation to work through this self-doubt.

You might notice the way you breathe quickens when you’re paddling out, whether it’s because you’re frothing the waves or scared of them. Either way, this response tells your brain you are in fight or flight mode, and reduces your oxygen intake, so you might start to feel winded or anxious before you’ve even surfed a wave! 😬 🏄

How can we change this? By becoming aware of our breathing patterns, and tuning into techniques to master our breath, we can too master our surfing. Swipe through to read the common breathing mistakes most surfers make, and what the smarter surfer would do to surf smarter, not harder! 🧠💥

Only a surfer knows the feeling.” A popular saying to describe the euphoric state that is unlocked when harnessing the energy of the waves. And a contributing factor to why we keep coming back for more!
