Has anyone got any links to information (videos or articles) that give good insight as to how to use your paddle to your advantage when on a wave? I still don't think I am using it to its potential.
On the subject of how to use your paddle; frontside I get it, bury the blade and use as a brace and accelerator. On my backhand however I'm trumped I'd love some tips on the paddle on your backhand?????
yes, but back to basics..... If surfing forehand and doing a 'traditional' cutback, which side do you sink the paddle, toeside or heelside? I have been doing it toeside, the guy in the vid mostly heelside? Heelside probably makes more sense so you can turn 'around' your paddle which I assume results in a tighter turn (?), but plenty of vids of people doing both ways?
