My experience on garb and how to improve surfs- Luke Pomeroy

Hello everybody today I will be talking about how to suit garb at the level 0. Today was the first day of week 2 of keeners and the level had dropped quite a bit over the weekend bring in new feature like pushbutton, babyface, and most importantly garb. At this level garb is pretty retentive and easy to stay on and like usual very bouncy and fun. Today was my first time ever surfing the wave and was instantly my favourite feature on the river barely beating kahuna. If you have never surfed garb before I would definitely encourage you to try and you will have some great dynamic surfs. 

Some tips on catching and surfing garb.

Always look upstream for oncoming rafts and kayakers.

Keep your bow facing upstream for best bounces

When dropping in go 2-3 meters above moby dick's rock and aim for the surfers right shoulder to catch the wave easily and not flush or catch your bow

If tired surf to left or right side on the shoulders to get a break BUT which the risk of getting flushed or not able to get back onto the wave

Try new things because the eddy is long and easy to catch so try new things while surfing 

The most important thing to do while surfing garb is HAVE FUN because is a great wave and super fun to surf 

Also try not to play bumper boats in the eddy though it can be hard to do but respect people's space and spot in line
