This is cool

I like how much you emphasized observation. These are all very good pointers! Thank you 🙏 ❤

Long time lurker of your channel. Been learning to nose ride for the last 3 years and I come here from time to time to watch your content.. This is an amazing video (Devon is a master surfer I'm glad you got to collaborate with him). Thank you for sharing your stoke and your lessons. Much Appreciated. 🌺
Just consistently great content. Sub’d.
Atlantic Ocean???
Nice chemtrails in the photography above your head, beautiful. When you know you know.

Explain “taking a late wave” thanks for your fun surfing videos I love your happy attitude..KellyB Sebastian Florida 😊
Thanks for the great tips! easier said than done though!
Why have only one board?
Hi ! I'm a complete beginner and i really appreciate your content, not only this video(which was perfectly made) Your explanations are on point, your editing is entertaining and creative. Congrats on making such quality content😊 i really appreciate it
The expense of a surfboard is a barrier for most people. The expense of a thick full body wet suit might coast you more than the board. Surfing expensive. But don't even think about skiing/snowboarding if you can't afford surfing. PS, I am a broke ass loser.
You don’t have to buy a new board or wetsuit, you can find cheap boards at swap meets, pawn shops, or in surf shops. The best board I ever had, was a used Wave Tools twin, that had about 5 inches of the nose chopped off. My friend had the fiberglass cloth and resin and chopped the nose off a really old crappy board, that we shaped and sanded to match the WT twin. So finding really good boards that need a little repair is a great way to buy a good cheap board.
Comedy. A non surfer giving surf instruction. So, most of those waves unable to be caught, looked like when the Tide and Water is too much for the Break and the Wave never actually breaks, making it Impossible to catch. Good times. And What a Great upper body workout at the same time. Go Surf. Have some fun. Be nice in the water.
Always wanted to try surfing but always so scared of sharks! How do y’all deal with this unknown knowing there’s always the possibility lurking??
Sooo good video ❤
Where is that beach? The water looks disgusting. Greyish brown murkiness. No way I would be getting in there for a couple of reasons.
What a D/H for posting such rubbish
So the STOP sign means don't look down ever?! Thanks!!!
You are amazing! And I am a producer!
When you feel the power of the wave and it allows you to do cutbacks or carves, that’s when you know. At least for me. I used to surf cause it was a way to get ahem *the opposite sex* lol. Now I surf to feel that experience of doing that bottom turn or pumping down the line generating speed to do your next maneuver. I genuinely feel the ocean is my favorite escape from all the stresses of the world. Oh and awesome video and perspective. Aloha 🤙
Be conscious of the crowd and who is out there with you. Starting to notice a lot of beginners in cali going to intermediate spots. These guys like to turn and paddle for EVERY wave that comes through, even if there are way better surfers already in position or that have been waiting longer Instead of putting your head down and paddling for every wave that comes through, you should probably sit a little inside and watch what the better surfers are doing. I'm pretty good myself but I'll still gauge the crowd, stay out of advanced surfers' way and sometimes won't go out at that spot if I don't see guys around my skill level catching waves. Just my 2-cents because I see a lot of beginners watch these positioning tips videos, then they go out paddling around/ past other surfers for waves and don't realize that its disrespectful to do
Chemtrail city!
Turn off the music.
Just lower it
ONE MORE BONUS TIP: Regarding the idea of landmarks you can also use a coordinate system where you use objects not only behind you but on your left and right hand side. For inctance pick a palm tree or building on the beach behind you and then to your left or right use a rock jutting out of a headland at the end of the bay or a pylon on a pier. Anything works so long as you can quickly identify angle changes when the current takes you so often narrow of warped objects work best.
BONUS TIP: One other thing i’ve learned over the years at beach breaks is when you paddle out and your unsure of where to sit take note if a series of in between set waves consistently stand up a little shallower but in line with where you are sitting since it is often a sign of a sand bar. This was a huge game changer for spots even like lower trestles being a reef break (you’d know if you surfed it) when the waves at times would swing wide or the peak would shift slightly, but it is often that the smaller waves just before a set generally indicate what the rest of the set is doing. Its also important that you consider tidal shifts, swell direction (especially new swell directions), and also being able to read the horizon and understand that waves on the horizon may look like they’re heading your way from a novice point of view when they are actually heading to a direction more the right or left hand side of you. If you are a total beginner first learn to stand up then apply this trick and you can hone in your surfing skills by means of a surf skate and practicing poping up before every session. I still do this especially on the more hollow days. Definitely dont want to miss those dreamers
Stay out of the water kook! and your longboard...you're a hazard to yourself and everyone around you!...Kook!
No thanks😉
excellent thank you sir
no leg rope anymore?????
Love your vids, Brian, but I gotta say that horrible looped “music” under your speaking is really off putting. I liked it when you tried it without music, and I like Ben C’s acoustic guitar underlay. I don’t think that looped electronic stuff is even a matter of taste. It’s just sorta annoying like someone’s phone going off in the middle of a movie. OK. Rant over. Just my tuppence worth 😉🤙
...does get better after the first couple chats 😁😉
haha! Well I think it is a matter of taste... but we can agree to disagree 😆. Maybe others can chime in
Wow, Steve Buscemi can surf!
haha!
this is a great video and helped a lot
Awesome thank you!
That was me when I started surfing. Im certain no surfer started out a Pro.🤡✌🏻🍻
Exactly.. everyone starts in the same place
The microphone quality is amazing! Could you share what mic is it that you[re using?
Thanks!! It's a zoom f2 (using the mic that came with it).
@@LongboardSessions Appreciate the reply! Love your content and the quality of production, and hope you can keep up the great work you're doing (and have an awesome time while you're at it!)
Hey dude. Love these videos! I’ve wanted to get into surfing but don’t want to travel to the rockaways. Is there a shop in Monmouth that you’d recommend for lessons for a first timer? Keep up the great work
Thank!! Only person I know who does lessons is the Pro surf coaches guy. Look him up on instagram.
What’s up man! I met you in San Onofre couple days ago. Sensational video, keep up the good work 🙏
It was great meeting you! Will do ... finally back in NJ after a long travel back haha! All worked out well tho
Man, you need a total re-wax of your board!
tell me about it !
All good information, a process that I also used is count the waves in a set while on the beach. It usually consistence at least in Hawaii and reef break spots; not always the case in sand breaks. It was usually 9 waves to a set and after the last wave breaks is a good time paddle like crazy to get in the line up. Your thoughts?
yes that's a great idea. You're right, not as consistent here, but still worth doing.
Too much psycho babble, it's called " future water " if your not looking down wave enough, your move is usually going late and that's the end of that ride!
You're so funny
Why thank you!
muy bienn
Thanks!!
Those on the tail and keep your head up high.
where is that beach in nj?
Monmouth county
Catch it ahead of the break
Very cool
Thanks!
