Oh, other than that fancy trick... pop up? is that what it's called??.. well

I'm having a LOT of fun trying to go switch..that rocks, try trimming going up n down wave..ha ha. fun..

and headstands but they hurt and you get water up your nose.. but sooo much fun,

and I'm trying to think about drop knee turns... that's not a trick but it's a trick getting it right.

And trying NOT to breathe in water whenever I paddle back out. That's my fave all time trick.

floaters, done well they are by far the most stylish way to make a section. And floater reverses are pretty cool (i cant do them tho)
