Ep 26 | The OMBE Method | You already know how to move and surf better, you just haven't applied it to surfing yet

There’s this saying we have at OMBE, “you already know how to move, you just haven’t applied it to surfing”. Confusing right? So what does it mean? The point of this is that, through everyday movements and things we do, day in, day out, we know how to be balanced, move, twist, compress, extend etc and that all we need to do for our surfing to improve, is apply those foundations of simple and effective movement to surfing.
