Hey, lessons are awesome!
2 things;
when surfing, is most of my weight on my back foot when doing turns and just riding the wave (which one/ or both?)???
and when doing a REO do i kick out my back leg and transfer my weight to my front foot, or just keep my weight it on my back leg??

Thank You

Hey,

Thanks for the email.

Your weight should move between your front and back foot. Front foot to gain speed and ride out of turns. Back foot for quick turns.
Yes, kick out the back foot to get more power off the top, then transfer your weight to the front foot to ride out of the turn.

Have fun,
