Current World Ironman Champion and Nutri-Grain Iron Series Ironman, Cory Taylor, loves body surfing and is an absolute gun at it. Here he shares his top two tips for successfully body surfing a wave into shore.
Tip 1: Kick, kick, kick
- To be successful at body surfing you need a strong kick
- Get your hips up and kick as hard as you can
Tip 2: Keep your head down
- Keep your head down the whole time you are on the wave
- Chin to your chest and try to stay as streamlined as possible
- As soon as you lift your head up or down, your body position drops which will cause you to fall off the back of the wave
