Re: Stance and turning probs!

Postby trifish » Fri Mar 06, 2009 5:08 pm

I usually just concentrate on planting my back foot towards the tail on my pop up. 60% of the time that doesnt always happen and I have to make a few adjustments sliding my body back once im standing to get my foot ready for a turn. If your balanced on the board you should be able to lightly jump and slide both feet back or step one back at a time. I had the opposite problem. I would jump to far back and miss the tail at times so I started pushing the board back and underneath me more during the popup. Maybe your pushing your board back to much during your popup?
