Hi jtang898, welcome to Surfing Waves!

You'll struggle duckdiving that board. What you're after is the turtle roll (eskimo roll). There are also plenty of tips about it on the forum, so have a search around.

That's great jtang898. This is one technique that takes a lot of practice to get good at, but it's an essential skill to master.
Great to hear it's helped already.
