How To Improve Your Turns and Carves in River Surfing

This video was filmed on the St. Lawrence river in Montreal at 120 FPS. The slow-motion shots are gold for beginners to analyse body positioning, body rotation and how to turn shoulders. Remember to stay relaxed, flexed and rhythmic to achieve greater turns and more fluent manoeuvres. It’s crucial for beginners to see, visualise and internalise the sequence of movements when doing turns in river surfing. Enjoy this clip and we hope it’s gonna help you turning better in your next session!
