Unlocking Buttery Turns | Surfing Biomechanics with Sloan Michael

cal breakdowns.

In this video, I team up with Sloan Michael in El Salvador to break down the biomechanics behind smooth, powerful turns. The focus is on forward weight distribution and precise rail engagement—key components for unlocking flow and control on the wave. What we cover:

– How shifting weight forward creates drive through turns

– Engaging the rail for clean, connected carves

– Foundation Triangle System applied to dynamic turning

– Land-based drills to reinforce muscle memory and flow.

This session is all about teaching the body to move in sync with the board so that you can surf with more speed, control, and style. Perfect for surfers looking to refine their technique and make every turn count. Subscribe for more high-level surf coaching and biomechanical breakdowns.
