We are pleased to announce that we have updated Nishii's riding video for his profile, which has been displayed in small print in the profile section on the right side of this 24'S blog page and has been playing on a loop without any change for many years (probably about 8 years).
Among these, there is one ride that has not yet been released, but anyone who knows which ride it is is a real Nishii riding movie expert!
This video includes underwater footage of a dolphin gliding through the water.
You will be able to see how Nishii is dolphining, so please take a good look.
Here's an excerpt from that video
We will post a series of images of the Nishii-style dolphin-through and explain it.
Push the board down with both arms and one knee.
Extend both arms and hook one foot into the grip kick, Place one foot next to the rail.
While moving the board deep forward,
Kick the water with one foot that is placed next to the rail, and lower your head and body further.
Push the board down with the kicking foot.
Kick one leg that is next to the rail backwards,
Get your board as deep as possible.
The ideal timing is when the waves are passing over you.
These are the steps to diving with a dolphin.
From here on, it's the action to float up.
Kick the board down with the foot that was holding the kick.
Place the nose up and point the board in the upward direction.
At this point, release the foot that was holding the kick.
Raise your eyes and head upwards,
Pull both arms that are holding the rails together to prepare the board for paddle position.
So that you can get into paddling position as soon as you reach the surface of the water.
Position your board and body in the optimal paddle position to float.
This action is like dolphining against waves that are about to break.
How to calm the board, how to use your hands and feet, and your position relative to the board.
Please take a good look at the continuous movement in each photo and use it as a reference.
Now, please take a look at the profile riding video on Nishii's blog.
Is Nishii the only one who thinks PLACEBO's "LAYZ POTATO" looks the best?
