cutbacks with funboards

Postby Beachbum » Fri Sep 01, 2006 7:29 am

I was wondering if I'm able to do a cutback on my 7"4 fun board? I didn't go surfing in a couple of weeks now :x , and on Saturday me and my friend are going to. I want to try to do something new and was wondering if its possible to do a cutback with my board. I'm pretty light if that has to do with anything. Does anyone have any advice on doing different types of cutbacks? I'm regular footed as well.

How do you even do a cutback? I'm going surfing tommorrow, and I havent been in a long while. Once I get the basics back up and running how do I start doing some tricks :P .
