    • For it to bend like a banana or more professionally we need it to go into reverse camber. Now there's a few ways that we can do that. You can just take a bit more speed. You can lean laterally into the slope a bit more but the best way, the way that gives the best and the most immediate results is to actually push your legs into the board. The way we do that is simply to extend the legs. As you push your legs into the board you apply pressure through the middle of the board. You bend it like a banana. You push it into reverse camber and you increase the radius of your turn. No you don't. You decrease the radius of your turn. You make it smaller. I'm getting too technical here. Basically by pushing your legs into the board as you extend you're going to tighten up that turn. So that's what we're going to do now. Have a quick play with this. Push those legs out through the turn and you can kind of do it progressively through the turn or you can kind of pump it like you're riding a wave. Get that board to kind of nip back up the slope. All right let's give that a go.
