A byte of Knibu

http://surfedukators.com/surf-cutback/

• - Take off and drive off the bottom of the wave;
• - Eye the part of the wave where you'll cutback;
• - Shift your weight from toeside to heelside using your back foot;
• - Use your front foot to control the board's transition from rail to rail without losing speed;
• - Look over the shoulder and make sure you don't bury the nose of the board;
• - Release the rail when you've decided what to do next;
• - Hit the lip of the breaking wave, or return to the surf line;
