Hey guys,

Ive been frothing over longboarding for a while now but have a severe case of no style. What are some stylish moves/tricks i can work on to improve my style? Things like drop knee cutties etc. Im not wanting to be a hipster logger but i want to mix it up a bit

cheers

You made the first mistake RJK, develop your own style and do what you like not what someone else does.

I know that may sound crap nowadays where everyone wants to be like someone else, but seriously, if you watch others and then take what you like and develop that to suit yourself, you will enjoy it more and become a better all round surfer.

Only my thoughts.

Yes I know Mac but not everyone can achieve that level of perfection.

At least you keep trying.

very funny stuff and cruel, but fair.


rjk, I've dropped sup surfing pretty much for logs and short boarding after 2 to 3 years of hot and cold on surfing sups.


still train, dw, etc and ins and outs.

love learning longboarding moves- cross stepping etc and I reckon it helps my dw ing.

the best part is learning imo, I fallen off cross stepping in ways I've never thought existed


and its nice to going and surf with out a paddle.

a change is good as a holiday

Yeah I'm the same Lacey, haven't been on a surf sup for over six months, zero desire to get back on one. Love practicing longboard moves on the raceboard though. Had a great sunrise sesh at tea tree the other morning with only 4 others out!! Been doing cross-leg leg drags and cross step bottom turns, also got a sweet head dip. Had a blast!!

1. Ditch the legrope
2. Grow a beard
3. Drive a beat up piece of **** (Vintage ) car...preferablly french
4. Get some canvas shorts...recycled tent material is best
5. Grab grandads beaver tail dive wetsuit's
6. Smoke a smelly roll ups while reading Tolsty/Kerouac
7. Don't move your arms


....congratulations you have now mastered the essential hipster longboarder arts...

RJK, this is a lot of information to absorb so I suggest you get some coloring in pencils, print some copies of the pic below and get to work.





And remember the tip, if you haven't coordinated the colors on the hipster, you've done it wrong.

Now start practicing and come back and see us in one week, if you've done well, we will allow you to burn your leg rope but not before

My God Lacey you have invoked the Longboard Gods wrath

.......the Longboard Illuminati (such as the Asea , Chrispyone , Obct , Simgrom , SP , Ted , V12 et al & etc etc ) .... the Longboard Glitterati (just Macaha ) ..... the Longboard Flitterati (the rest of us unworthy & unwashed heathens ) .... the Midlengtherati (bloody Cobra) have been awoken with displeasure

You have been summonsed to appear before the tribunal and you will also be fined as follows ........ >>>>>> !!!


1. You will cop 7 Soy Lattes in a public place (such as Broadbeach Main Plaza)
2. You shall wear Boat Shoes also in a public place (the Goldie Points) for the period of no less than 2 months
3. You shall be horse whipped unmercifully by big Jim at the gym
4. You might be forced to mow the Mansion lawns with abovesaid boat shoes while wearing the Cobra gymp mask
5. You shall drink from the recepticle of McTavish & be liking it
6. Thee may very well be spanked brutally on the buttocks with a boat shoe .... a smelly uncleaned boat shoe !!!!

No appeal is granted ..... and no mercy shall be spared .... you have sinned cardinally

that is all ...... (for now)
