You can see the head position and posture before standing up to make takeoff faster!
Luvsurf TV: LOST 5'4”
“CRAZY POTATO” Koji Nishii Koji Nishii
Rider: Koji Nishii
Board used:
LOST 5'4" "CRAZY POTATO"
FILM: Hayato Masuda
EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM
The quick take-off has been inherited from the LAYZ POTATO, so if you lean forward enough to press your chin against the board like Nishii did in the first jump, you'll be able to slide out of the swells very quickly.
This posture is important for a faster takeoff. Your head is the heaviest part of the board, so by using that weight, the board will point downwards and fall faster.
The position of your head before standing up is important, so please take this into consideration.
The "CRAZY POTATO" is a fast model that allows you to ride smoothly.
The double wing squash tail is small and very sensitive,
It can also respond instantly to unexpected changes in wave breaks at beach breaks where the wind is not right and the waves are bad.
Now, please take a look at this riding video of a hybrid model with half of the nose being SHORT ROUND and half of the tail being LAYZ POTATO.
