May 12, 2009 - Wrong, your hand DO NOT go on the rails during a 'pop-up'....if thats what your doing, your doing it wrong! Your hands must been close to your chest, so when pushing up on your arms there is more height, and the board will also be more stable during the move (rather than tilt the board)

Jun 14, 2009 - surfers get more respect then skaters so shut up. anyone can skate shit i was a skater, skate boarding is for little kids everyone grows out of it. one day your balls will drop and u will to

paulypj Says:

Jun 17, 2009 - i have been skating for 16 years and surfing for the past 5. and im not after your respect. You must be pretty narrow minded, and immature to really believe that skating is for little kids. I expect you couldnt handle falling off a skateboard and therefore wanted a softer landing! Maybe you should focus on your own life...

Jun 19, 2009 - I see you skate streetstyle. That's neat but it may be distracting you from skating transitions. The San Jose skatepark is what is seriously missing down here in SoCal. A 10 year old is now out-ripping you in the public parks but the good ones, not those crappy parks. SHHH, its like a secret. Short kids learn faster cuz theyre lower to the ground. Adults tend to have inhibititions that some kids get. It's easy but yet some just put it off. It blows away SoCal surfing 99.95% of the time. punk

Jul 23, 2009 - yeah tell that asshole off he doesnt know shit if he thinks little kids would rather bail on a 10 stair and hit concrete rather than fall in water.

Aug 21, 2009 - No matter how much I practice I still knee up. It's probably because I started surfing so late in life.(50s). Anyway, I still have fun.

Voileen Says:

Aug 22, 2009 - I knee up too . . . but that's because I have a bad hip.

Aug 26, 2009 - i no how to do this ive been surfing for a while but when i pop up alot of times my feet are right next to eachother and i wipe out
