Great clip mate, thanks for sharing. As a budding wave rider on L plates, can someone tell me what the advantage is to riding a wave clew first?

Cheers

Thanks. When the wind is onshore it is a lot easier to ride clew first

Clew first: Allows you to ride "front-side" to the wave, which is the best way to surf a wave. You can bottom turn, smack the lip and so on as if it were cross offshore, well almost.

I get it but I can't do it.

Thanks Bolocom and EvlPanda. I actually tried the clew first thing today as the wind was pretty well onshore. Only little toy waves, waist high grubbers, but I could see what ya saying about it changing the sail angle on the waves. All feels a little odd, but I got to go face-to-wave in cross to onshore conditions, which I would normally ride backhand. This has inspired me to wave sail more when the wind is a little "wrong". So cheers for that.

Whilst backhand is fun, face to wave is more funner
