Sick of blowing waves due to poor pop up technique?

The pop up is the most fundamental skill when it comes to catching more waves.

A poor pop up technique reveals itself in many ways. If you recognize any of the following impediments, chances are that your pop up is to blame. 

YOU’RE NOT A KOOK

    You probably need it...so just get it.

    I’ve been wanting to fix my bad surfing habits for quite some time, but never knew where to start. Picked up the Perfect Pop Up program in an effort to change what should have been changed long ago and I couldn’t be happier. Cris takes the time to fully explain everything in great detail, which for me is key….from joint specific stretches, to how your brain gets rewired and the fitness required in order to fix your bad habits. I’m still working on changing my bad habits but there’s definitely an improvement and I credit this program for it.

    Pop ups

    I have only had a couple of surfs since starting the program,but have found that already getting to my feet is becoming easier.I have surfed for over 50 years but found over the last few years,due to injuries that my standing up was becoming increasingly harder to do,so frustrating.But by following this program I am seeing benefits and am standing up a lot fluider,just need to practise it now so I can get quicker. Thankyou Cris

    Old Guys Rule…their bodies don’t

    As an old surfer from DURBAN, South Africa, I’ve been living in the UK for the past 20 years not surfing…no much surf & the sea is freezing. But in Bristol, we now have the Wave.com wave pool…and I saw my arse there trying to surf for the first time in years.
    Turns out my body physically cannot perform a pop up…something that came naturally as a young man.
    Enter Surf Strength Coach.
    Chris’s walk up approach, stretching & training techniques have given me back what I thought I’d lost forever…the ability to surf once more…thank you 🙏 Awesome App…highly recommend this for anyone, any age & any ability!

    The Program Delivers!

    I’ve always had problem with my Pop up as i always end up stepping more forward on the board and so far from the tail pad.
    This program helped me fixed that and much more. The program is broken down into simple and easy to understand steps and shows you the importance of flexibility and strength.
    by the end of phase 1, i can see improvements already and by the end of Phase 2 i was already popping up(walk up) like cris on his videos. I am excited to get back in the water and test my new pop up skill.

    Huge Thanks Cris! This changes a lot!

    Perfect pop up program has been revolutionary

    The best things I’ve learned from your programs are that all of the movements you teach should be natural movements that our bodies should already know how to do. When I commit to training and get these new movements into my range of motion I notice that I’m able to move more freely. Another great moment has come from learning when to stop training if something doesn’t feel right and that “pain is not gain”! Although I get a great workout, I always feel more charged up afterwards and warmed up rather than defeated and needing a day of rest.

    A note to say how much and why your program is meaning so much to me.

    I’m 58 years old tomorrow. 1 year ago I was just about to finish up a 6 month surf trip with my youngest son and just honestly realised that the one thing in my life that had always been pure joy – surfing!

    Then COVID, locked down on return to France, no surf, and remote working – ouch! But your program gave a way out. OK so I couldn’t surf, but I can get my old bones working like never before. I’m not ready to give up on my short board damn it!.

    I got stuck into the 12 week program and then couldn’t give it up. From an older perspective the results are actually amplified – and I’ve stayed seriously fit all my life. But the mix of workouts + muscle and joint care have really made a difference.

    I’m at that dreaded beginner-intermediate level of surfing where I am trying to transition to a shorter board and get into better green waves – and I was struggling with getting a quick pop up. This program helped me with my form and also mobility limitations specific to the surfing pop up. It’s easy to do and feels great and I’m glad I purchased this!! Great investment.

    Surf fitness for every level and age.

    I’ve been surfing for over 30 years but had some ankle problems and this was affecting my pop-up. I had a loss in stability and was causing me to more often lose balance on steeper waves. After using the pop-up program I identified other areas of muscle tightness and area that just needed more TLC. Now I’m making more take offs. My ankle is not causing any problems and I am now focussed on the overall health of my body for surfing. Now to work on my shoulders!!!

    sort it out. This program was spot on. I used it for a month before my latest surf trip to Portugal and really felt the difference. Everything worked smoother and I had better confidence ,was more calm and caught more waves! Strongly recommend.

    Stoked on the mobility work!

    Big fan of this program, particularly the focus on mobility. The mobility evaluations were especially helpful. I was able to establish that it was really my hips that were my limiting factor rather than my hamstrings and calves. Digging in on the hips has improved range of movement quickly. I should also add that the strength training is very effectively targeted toward improving pop ups.

    Thanks for your help! As an athlete, I have learned how to make minor adjustments to my technique and routines that lead to huge improvements in my performance. Because surfing was always something I did on the side, I never invested time in learning some of these fundamental techniques. I always just kind of felt my way through things, well that hasn’t worked as well with surfing. This module has given me the head knowledge I needed to make huge improvements in my pop up. While I still have a ways to go to reach my goals, I am confident in this part of the puzzle. Thanks again!

    Best technique instruction out there

    They way Chris breaks down the pop-up technique is easily the best instruction I’ve seen – and I’ve watched a tonne of you tube’s on this. His is a different, and I think much better, way of working on the pop up. After only 3 weeks working on the technique I can feel the improvement in the water and am getting more wave time by sticking more pop-ups.

    Complete surf mindset

    I live in the city, so if I want to surf, I need to drive at least 2-3 hrs, that means that I cant surf everyday, and just on weekends. Saying that, keep in shape during the week is key for a good performance. This program has been really useful to complement the lack of surf hours and avoid loosing endurance. Also, this program is not only about working out, but the complete mindset of surf, telling you things like ´why we have to do certain exercise to improve pop up or bottom turn, etc´, so you start thinking about your future movements for the next session while you´re working out. Thanks Cris.

    The Perfect Pop Up

    A little background for others see if this could benefit them. Grew up surfing my whole life, last 20 years I have lived inland away from the coast. I am 60 and wanted to get back into surfing. I get to surf once a quarter, so hard to improve my surfing. My main problem was popping up, once I was up, I was able to ride the wave pretty good. I started the program and it was able to pin point my weaknesses, and I began his program to work on. I have been consistent in my workouts two times a week the past 3 months. I went surfing at the BSR Surf Park in Waco, TX this past weekend and did much much better in my pop-ups. It is nice to improve even when I don’t get much wave time in.

    Changed My Life

    When I initially started this training, my primary focus was on improving my surfing pop up which for some reason had gone to custard in the last 12 months. Probably a combination of ageing and just bad habits plus never having had a good tutor like Cris to sort it out too. I’ve mostly been a competitive runner all my life and surfing has been my part time passion to provide mental stress relief and it’s just such a great sport. As soon as I started into the pop up program, my running improved!? Great side effect!! The quality of this program cannot be underestimated and Cris’s inspirational and informative emails are also right on the mark for not only surfing but all aspects of your life. You cannot underestimate how much of an impact this has had for me and my wife and kids are probably sick of hearing me rave on about it but I’ve never been involved in anything even close to this quality. The app and/or website are both very well designed and very easy to use, the videos for every exercise or stretch are very clear, it’s hard to make a mistake with this and if you do have any feedback, Cris responds to emails too. If there was a 6 star rating, it would be given here.

    Great program

    This program has really helped me improve the speed of my pop-up, which in turn improves my position going down the line. Before the program I thought I should just jump to my feet as quick as possible without giving much thought to technique. The program leads you to develop a smooth, fluid, pop-up being light on your feet instead of just stomping on the board. The program also helps with general strengthening and mobility. I highly recommend to people who are having problems or lack confidence which their pop-up.

    Chris is the real deal

    I’ve been a lifelong surfer with extensive experience in SoCal, Hawaii, Fiji, and Mexico. However, after having life events come along, such as a wife and kids, desk jobs, the weight from my desk job and lack of activity took a toll on me. After implementing an exercise and weight loss regime, I was still having a hard time practicing my pop ups at home. I hired Chris to help me diagnose the issue. It was worth every penny. I my case flexibility was the issue, and Chris helped me get it sorted out. So whether you choose the pop up program, or hire Chris for a customized plan like I did, he will help you out and get you ready for your next surf trip.

    Progressed my surfing

    I was struggling with my pop-ups. At first I thought it was just a confidence thing. Turns out, it was mostly my poor technique and conditioning; and this wasn’t something that I could fully acknowledge until I started the program. The popup technique program has allowed me to reevaluate my popup technique, and also greatly improve my body conditioning to support my surfing. Each day I have noticed improvements in my pop-up to the point now where my confidence has increased and I can just focus on enjoying surfing waves and improving other aspects of my surfing. And it’s not just the videos in the program that are awesome, it’s the ongoing support through direct contact with Cris that is appreciated. I highly recommend this program to anyone who surfs at any level!

    After a couple of months of me being really busy at work, I never did much surfing. When I got back to the water I was popping up like a complete beginner tool… except I’m not a beginner at all so it was even worse. I didn’t even know exactly what was the problem. Was my core not strong enough, was my technique off- I had no idea. Anyway, within 3 lessons my pop up was 100% better. I’m the type of surfer that likes to make late/ steep takeoffs and I even learned a takeoff technique with the program that helps me guarantee my back foot is in the right position in those crazy, critical moments.

    Chris really puts a lot into his coaching. He cares and he wants you to succeed. He almost sends you too much information :). If you are serious about your surfing in any way, this entire program is the one-stop-shop for technique and fitness/ body issues.

    Pop up training

    As a lifelong surfer who is now 55 years old and had both hips replaced the struggle was real. My frustration level was through the roof. The results were not immediate for me but the more I did the program the more I started seeing some muscles and muscle memory come back. By no means is my pop up perfect every time but I am really feeling the results and I am now getting out of the water with a smile on my face instead of a frown.Last Sunday was my best sesh in many moons! Thanks Cris and my core is really feeling the results as well. Thanks for the help physically and mentally ! You rule!

    Solid advice

    Chris and Clay have a crystal clear way of breaking down the basics of the mechanics needed. And just the right amount of focus, not too much distracting info, just the clear facts to be able to improve. Their concepts have helped me easily reacquire skills I used to have when I was young. Now unfortunately at 60 years, I had some flexibility and negative habits formed. Too much damn sitting. Now I’m back- great info here

    Surf Pop Up

    Solid, well thought out approach to the pop up. Fitness and repetition play their part, but knowing the mechanics to work on is simply very important to this key aspect of surfing, especially when you are beginner/intermediate level. I’d recommend it…

    Hard to believe after almost 30 years of surfing I needed to relearn how to get it up but it’s true. Aging and osteo arthritis have taken their toll and after a couple of cold winter months out the water I struggle to stand up. Embarrassing to say the least… My cousin turned me on to Chris’ videos and my wife scored me the series for Christmas and after a month of getting in to and using the series my pop up is back! Chris’ simple and logical stretching concepts have helped and now I’m hooked and will be using it for overall body health and limberness. Thx Chris!

    Stop watching endless YouTube popup videos and buy this

    I have been surfing for a long time but, as I have gotten older, my popups were getting worse. For months I felt like I watched every YouTube video I could find about popups – specifically shortboard (off the knees) popups. To be clear, I could (and still can) do an “explosive pop” to land on both of my feet. But I noticed that when I was in the water, I was missing too many good waves from a popup that didn’t land my feet in just the right places. I was looking for a more consistent popup because doing all the work to paddle into a position to catch a good wave and blowing it SUCKS.

    When I first started using this program, I was kind of unsure/bummed out because it seemed like he was just teaching the old “chicken wing” method. If you are worried about that, don’t stress. As I kept following the program I realized that the “walk up to popup” program is designed to make popups way smoother/easier (meaning less blown opportunities to ride) and that the “chicken wing” naturally progresses to a non-chicken-wing popup as you add speed.

    Solid program with all of the strength and mobility training required to help anyone popup effectively.

    Absolutely love it

    I have been trying to become a better surfer for many years. I chose the pop up program because I could recognise in myself that I had major limitations that prevented me from improving my skill, ability and enjoyment of surfing any further. I absolutely recommend the 6-week program to everyone even if you don’t surf because what I found when completing the program was a better overall health and movement which improved my surfing, running and enjoyment of everyday life. The lastest update is even better than the first which I loved. It’s not just a token update but a deliberate action by Cris to improve advice, use new language (of which thinking of it as a walk up has really helped me) along with intervention of detailed breakdown of professional surfer pop-ups. I really recommend the program and I plan to purchase others to get even more growth.

    I watched almost every ‘pop-up’ up video I could find online and was still not getting my pop-up to click. There is NOTHING I have seen online that describes the theory of the pop-up like Chris does. My improvements were instant and it’s really accelerated my surfing.

    As for the strength & conditioning component, I worked as an S&C coach for BJJ for several years and can speak from a place of experience that Chris REALLY KNOWS HIS SHIT!

    His knowledge is spot on and his delivery is excellent. I cannot recommend this program enough. Buy it, use it, catch more waves

    I really like the way Cris breaks things down to first principles like skills and movements and build it up from there. Most of the other YouTube ‘experts’ just show a video of them on a wave or on a surf skate or whatever, without giving you the core principle or movement to work on and build up to achieve a level of skill. The walk up to pop up is a great example.

Creating stability from pelvis pressed onto board, legs squeezed together and arching spine while paddling in, instead of slumping them down and forward, made so much difference today and the walk up is magic! Thanks heaps!

This changed my surfing and opened my eyes to a lot of things that I had been doing wrong for years. I now subscribe to Cardboard Surfer, Surf Athlete, Stretches for Surfers and Fix my Pop Up. I can’t recommend these programs enough. The stretching, the techniques and the exercises are so beneficial, and all taught/ explained in a simple way that is easy to get your head around. Cris and his Surf Strength programs have changed the way I look at surfing, and I have improved out of sight.

    This program deserves a long review!

    Your program has literally saved my surfing. I’m not there yet, but close. The pop up funk was ruining any chance at fun, and whenever I got stuck in a downward dog(WTF!) I was so disgusted I felt like walking away altogether! But I’ve been taking international trips for years, and I will never let that go, even when I get to the age when supping is the only option. I’ve been in the water with 200lb guys supping on 7’10s, and ripping. So the future looks bright!

    But until then, I’ll surf. The fluid walk up to pop up is coming around quickly, and I can feel how the quicker push off the knees is an extension of the slower version. After working on the technique, one moment of clarity was seeing how key hip mobility is to keeping it fluid. I think I still have the core strength and reasonable flexibility, so shedding the lbs will be huge. Practicing your method while getting stronger, lighter and more flexible will lead to a great outcome! I’ve been 153-55 since high school and am now at 166. I’ve always believed that since we lose muscle mass as we age, we should get lighter as we get older(I’m now 66) not heavier. Of course, it’s the opposite for everyone I know. So my hunch is I should be ~150 max. That will go a LONG way to improving the quick get-up. Imagine popping up with a 15lb dumb bell on the small of your back!

    Another ah-hah moment was SO simple and seemingly obvious – look down the line! I went to Nicaragua 6 yrs ago, and got my lunch handed to me. Mostly because I seldom surf beach breaks, but now in hindsight I realize I was looking straight down a seriously sucking face, and not looking where I should be going! Even surfing my home break now, when I focus down the line the waves look so much softer it feels like I have more time to get up fluidly.

    Thank you for being so meticulous in your presentation

    I have learned so much from your training videos that I have seen on Youtube. I am trying to speed up my pop up. I watched many videos of the pros in start stop mode. In fact the one that you show at the Surf Ranch is one of them. I broke that one down and came away with the basics as far as putting the back foot down first. However, I saw better surfers at my local break doing the both feet landing on the board at once type of pop up. At that point I was trying to copy them and it really screwed me up.

    I am so happy because your video confirms that I have been on the right track all along. All of the other details that enable a person to have the proper mobility really make a difference. I had been doing some of those exercises because of instructions that I got from your videos on Youtube. This course has it all in one place and I am so grateful for that.

    Thank you for being so meticulous in your presentation. Your mantra of building strength and mobility at home and then using them to surf better has been instrumental in getting me to where I am at today.

    Thank you so much for creating this program and app, and for the generous discount!

    Awesome program!

    Coach, you probably get tons of testimonials already, but quickly I want to say that your program is simply awesome. I have done now first 4 weeks of the program and I am already feeling big differences in my body. Earlier I have done crossfit, climbing, yoga etc, but none of these prepare body for the waves or paddling. Also the surfskate program has opened new ideas. I am 43 years old and have surfed only for 3 years but the plan is to keep surfing in my 60s, and with this stuff it is possible.

    It has helped every aspect of my surfing!

    Hey Cris, my name is Chris Campbell. The program is excellent and has really helped every aspect of my surfing. Specifically, the Perfect Pop Up improved the strength and flexibility of my weak and tight muscles so I could be smoother with my pop up. So yes I am a customer. But I am also an exercise physiologist. Because of my profession, I can really appreciate your expertise. You are incredibly good at what you are doing as a surf strength coach. I just wanted you to know that. Hang in there, man. These are tough times. My wife and I are really struggling too. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

    I wish I’d have bought it sooner.

    I was told about Cris and his videos by a friend who was organising a trip to the Mentawais. Initially I just watched the YouTube strength training videos and the ‘packing for a trip to Indo’ which was really useful.
    I randomly ran into Cris in the water at Macaroni’s a few days before the Corona virus forced us all home early.
    When I was allowed back in the water back home, I purchased his program. His relaxed but quick walk up and totally focusing on looking down the line has massively improved my ability to get waves. I hardly ever fall on take off, and that definitely wasn’t the case in Indo

    Once on the wave, the arm/leg/coffee cup positions, no poo man, twist, be like a sprinter feels great, brilliant advice.

    awesome!

    I’ve been in 2nd lockdown in vicco and have had no surf time. i did your pop up course in first lockdown and found it not only great to fix my. pop up but an excellent workout while all gyms were closed. i have also bought a sweet 7″ zak ringmaster with loads of volume to help the intial movement with more stability. then taken that fixed movement back to my 6’4 with sik results. thanks again

    I love this!

    I love how my body feels more loose and flexible than ever before in my entire 42-year life. I’m as stoked as ever and much of that comes from simply feeling primed and ready to surf.

    Keep it up, Cris!

    Your program has literally saved my surfing. I’m not there yet, but close. The pop up funk was ruining any chance at fun, and whenever I got stuck in a downward dog(WTFI) I was so disgusted I felt like walking away altogether! But I’ve been taking international trips for years, and I will never let that go, even when I get to the age when supping is the only option. After working on the technique, one moment of clarity was seeing how key hip mobility is to keeping it fluid. I think I still have the core strength and reasonable flexibility, so shedding the lbs will be huge. Practicing your method while getting stronger, lighter and more flexible will lead to a great outcome!

    Worth every penny!

    Hi Cris, my wife and 8yo daughter gave me your program for Christmas. Since we all surf together it was really a gift for all of us. We’re watching your program as a family…it’s awesome. We usually watch a video or two on the program before we hop on our boards and practice and critique each other on those drills. No more big effort pop ups. Just to land with feet in the wrong position and have to readjust on a critical part of the wave! It’s wild to get this knowledge after surfing nearly 30 years and see how much more fun we can have in the water by being intentional about our focus for that session. It is such a great asset for my coaching my daughter too. It’s crazy to go out in the water and see how few people really pay any attention to their technique. Glad we’re not in that camp any more. You’ve really got some incredible programs and have put a massive amount of work into putting them together. We appreciate that work, the improvements its already bringing to our surfing and even drawing us closer as a family.
