setting up a nose ride

Postby newportlongboard » Wed Mar 14, 2012 4:57 pm

just looking for some help with nose riding setup
i can get nose rides and i stall to get higher in the wave although when going for the nose alot of the time the board races down the face quickly before i can get to the nose so i wondered should when setting up my board be parallel to the wave face or at more of an angle i drew a sketch to show what i mean

I can't help out with noseriding issues, but I'd just like to comment on the quality of your image. It's way better than the normal child scrawl posted.
Good work
