Compression & Extension
The Surf Continuum
Specifically regarding the last step: extension. There’s a reason we teach a stand up technique, and not a pop-up. Beginners already tend to have an excited and explosive stand up. Take advantage of the extra drive you can create by standing up compressed at first and slowly extending through the rail set.
