How To Generate Speed

Pumping is the movement which you do when you’re surfing or surfskating, to generate speed.

Pumping is crucial to help you get enough speed to surf down the wave, especially if you have a fast barrel or want to perform manoeuvres.

It also helps you to cruise on the flat ground when you’re on the surfskate, as the loose trucks make pushing like on a regular skateboard less stable. In order to move (or get from A to B), you’ll need to learn to pump.
