Surfing Huge Waves

The tube ride is a manoeuvre performed in the sport surfing. When a wave begins to break, it ten creates a hollow section as it peels down the sandbank or reef bottom, enabling the experienced surfer to position him / her self in the hollow part the wave, also known as the tube. The surfer can be completely surrounded by water for several seconds (sometimes much longer depending upon the wave) until the wave forces him / her to exit the tube and go back out onto the open wave face. Given the degree difficulty experienced whilst riding a tube, surfers ten fall f their surfboards before exiting the tube cleanly. Strong tube riding skills can only be acquired from years experience riding hollow waves and learning to anticipate how the wave will break, thus enabling you to stay inside the tube longer, or exit quickly before the wave collapses on top you. Some the world's best known waves for tube riding include Pipeline on the North shore Oahu, Teahupoo in Tahiti and G-Land in Java.
Hanging Ten and Hanging Five are moves usually specific to longboarding. Hanging Ten refers to having both feet on the front end the board with all the surfer's toes f the edge, also known as noseriding. Hanging Five is having just one foot near the front, toes f the edge. Hanging Ten was first made famous by James (Rip) Carman from the early Californian surfing beaches.
• Cutback: Generating speed down the line and then turning up the face to reverse direction. Has the effect slowing the rider down to keep up with slower wave sections that appear after a fast section, for example a drop in.
• Floater: Popping up on the lip the wave and coming down with the lip. Can be used at the end a wave when the wave section is closing out. Very easy and popular on small waves.
