The Cork Take Off 🔽 This method works when you’re positioned on the peak or slightly behind it - use it when you have a short distance between you and the wave you are trying to catch. How to do it? 1. Sink the tail of the board, and bring the nose up out of the water 2. Arch your back (this provides better view of the wave, stronger paddle, less effort to catch the wave) 3. Frog kick with your legs directing your board forward with the buoyancy propulsion. This method is particularly effective
