Using a dropknee stance works pretty good. You can leave your back shin on the board and get your front foot in place. Then when the front foot is in place give it a little more trigger and stand up on your back foot too.

Using a wing will probably be the easiest. If the wind is proper wind you can just hang onto that thing like it's a pull up bar.

The Omen boards are good. Very mini simmons esque.  I like them a lot.

That spot looks very fun. What I've been working on lately is doing a full cutback, then when going right, kicking out that way with speed and pumping back to the next wave. It gives you a nice angle to get to the peak faster and the connection turn can be in a steeper section than always cutting out when going to the left.

SoCal kind of sucks for wind, though the swell is pretty good. Oregon Coast--Manzanita, Pacific City, various Astoria spots. Pistol River for crazy shit.

Looks like my buddy just confirmed this statement perfectly.

Josh Ku is going to be in hood river this week. For aWSI. You’ve got to get him to try these foils. I would love to see that. Let me know if you need a introduction or his WhatsApp info.

Slap a bumper sticker on the barracuda.

I am not the reason you're not getting waves.

The Shape Shack / Re: XPS Board Building Advantages vs EPS Foam

Interesting. I have the 4'3" 36L and really like it. I've come off of 4'5" and 4'6"s in the 27-31L range. The Omen 36L feels longer than any of the other boards somehow, but does a better snap turn than my older boards, and can hold on a rail turn when needed.

Very excited to get the wing board in the water. Which of course means there's no wind anywhere in the forecast.

Did someone mention off cuts? 😀 new toy in case the wind ever comes back. Omen 60l which I’ll be using for winging. I’ve gotta say. Their packaging is really impressive. The foils came in a box so pretty I had to save the box.

That should have been communicated prior to fulfilling the order it seems like. I'd be upset. Boards aren't cheap.
