    Surf Switch: Toeside <--> Heelside

    There's a lot of talk on the forum on surf select option and switch time port to starboard etc. but I haven't seen any vids of transitions! Here's a quick clip of me going heel > toe and back.

    I spent a lot of time surfing heelside this summer too. So much fun!

    Got any sweet transfer vids??

      Wow, very nice. I started surfing heelside this past summer and only towards the end of the season did it feel even remotely "natural." So weird. I had to learn how to surf all over again. I've done transitions but none as clean as yours.

        Love the pic lying down!!

        First time I ever did a transfer I immediately realized I didn't know how to surf heelside!

        Like Charles it took me a while to feel comfortable surfing heelside.

        Taylor Dorey came out with us a couple of times last season. She rips and really opened up our minds as to new things to try.

        Currently I am at about 5% of her level. I am aiming for 6% this season

          Props to you guys. Just hoping I can put enough ballast and suck gate on to surf one side next summer. 96 super sport so I think it's gonna take some work.
