Pumping

How do you pump through a wave

[drowningbitbybit]

This is an unusual one... I have no idea whatsoever what you're talking about....

[surf patrol]

Are you talking about pumping for speed?

[billie_morini]

No, no. To properly weave when surfing, you need to use the trimble-mounted Ronco Mini-weaver. It's small enough to use while surfing, but professional enough to turn out a complete angora sweater and matching socks. Batteries not required.

You cannot buy the equipment and expect to be an instant success at weaving in the water. It takes a lot of practice and hard work, just get in the water and get weaving. Before you know it you will be knocking out scarves, socks and even jumpers.

hahahaha wow. My bad for the wording I guess. No but I meant pumping.

To pump I start with little turns on the face a bit like tic tac turns on a skate board, each micro turn adds a little speed.
I have my back foot firmly on the sweet spot and push down and swing the nose in a slight arc and release some pressure on the tail the nose drops slightly down the face and picks up speed, I can use one pump the speed up for a section or several just prior to a flat spot on the face to give me carry over speed.
I also watch the wave face to see micro pockets or spots where I can get more speed by going high to low.
You can also stall pump by pushing down hard on the tail without turning, hold the pressure as you begin to float up the face and then suddenly put pressure on your front foot and enjoy the acceleration, all of this can be subtle or hard driving. The pros do it at a micro level inside the tube
