Been trying to classify my riding style. Doesn't seem to be a term for my style of riding.
I love the waves but not in the traditional surfboard sence. I'm not to keen running underpowered chasing an everlasting down the line just like a surfboar feeling. I'm not a freestyler or wake styler.
I like to be powered and go fast, jump long and attack the wave like its my own personal jump park. i'll smash out through the waves the faster i can go the better. If i can hit that ramp with max speed and then fly through the air with a massive tweeky style and then landing super soft but still fast i'm in heaven. than i'll ride the waves like burm. carve em up jump around on them,... love it.
I'm not mowing the lawn. not just cruising around which is what i'd call freeriding.
what is my style called?
thats freeride mate. I'm the same, love to ride fast, boost big, carve hard and smash small to medium size waves. I'm not interested in wearing boots and doing spinny dangle tricks on flat water-BORING, nor riding sb's strapless, it just dosen't appeal to me. I just can't get enough of using the local breaks as my own personal amusment park. I know I might not be seen as cool by all the local sheep riding strapless, but who gives a f@#k, I'm getting bigger air than any of them and catching just as many waves, and sure as sh!t having as much fun as anybody out there. Thats the most important thing right!
