    The kick out is an important
    surfing maneuver to add to your surfing tool torso. The kick out is performed to flee a wave that is closing outside infront of you or to avert a collision with another surfer. Some times the choice to perform a kick out is available in a fraction of a second, you want to perform this maneuver quickly and forcefully.

    Yes there are quiet breaks to be found in Costa Rica. There were four additional surfers out from the water. These were locals and were pretty much blowing me. This was fine with me, as you will find plenty of waves and a great deal of room for the five people.

    About one hour into the semester, I had been riding a wave and at a terrific position about it when a person of the other surfers caught the wave and had not found me. Since he started to drop into the tide he saw me out of this corner of the eye. I did a kick out and avoided slamming into his or her surfboard. I lost a good ride, except for the remainder of your day, I got 4 new friends.

    Here’s a lesson in just how to do out a kick.

    Start by forcefully pushing the tail of the surfboard down with your back foot. This results in the tail of this surfboard to sink in the drinking water. When the tail sinks, it stalls the surfboard.

    At the exact same point that you’re forcing down the tail, bend your own body in the direction you would like to show. This will enable the surfboard to quickly turn.

    If the two portions of the maneuver are done together with adequate push out the kick will likely soon be successful, and you’ll go out over the top of the wave averting the closeout or yet another surfer.
