You can practice by lying flat, straight out on your stomach. Place your hands by your shoulders, board width apart. In one flowing movement 'snap' up to a crouched standing position as quickly as you can

I got this from the SW instruction bit.. lesson 4, I think.

Isnt physically impossible to pop up with your hands by your shoulders??? They should be like, by your ribs instead?

I have changed this slightly and it now reads 'Place your hands up by your chest (as if you were doing a press-up), board width apart'
I must do a picture / video of this to show how its done - a picture is worth 1000 words and all that.

It's always been there.
