🏄‍♂️ RedBull Surfing - Air Awareness Camp

Описание: Progression in the Air – Technique, Timing & Coaching Styles at the Red Bull Surfing Air Awareness Camp 🧠🏄‍♂️

🎥 What to expect:

Air training with top Red Bull athletes
In-depth technique breakdowns
Tips & tricks for controlled aerials
Pure high-performance vibes in an artificial wave
Red Bull energy, elite mindset & pro-level coaching


Five intense days at O₂ SURFTOWN MUC, packed with high-level training alongside top athletes like @Kauli Vaast, Leon Glatzer, and Teresa Bonvalot, guided by an exceptional coaching crew: @Sean Hayes, Miky Picon, and Trennor Paynter, a freestyle ski coach bringing in his expertise about air control.

🎯 The goal: Build better air awareness – through focused surf sessions in the morning and trampoline training in the afternoon.
What made it truly unique: the crossover between surf and winter sports coaching. Different methods, same outcome – maximum progression.

🔍 Technical focus – e.g. Straight Air:
•Enough speed and the right line into the lip are key
•No unnecessary pumps – trust the flow and timing
•Pop & release: It’s about “jumping” off the lip & a clean tail release – like an Ollie in skating
•Tension in the air: Arms stay low, eyes locked on the landing zone
👉 Rotate towards the beach to drive out in a controlled way

⸻

🔁 Air Reverse (360):
•Drive the rotation by opening up the shoulders – not the legs
•The head leads the movement – eyes over your trailing shoulder, “look past your ear”
•Arms stay compact and pointed down

👉 Feel like a box and act like a coiled spring.

As a shadow coach, I had the chance to follow the athletes closely, prep feedback, and reflect alongside the head coaches. One thing that stood out: how differently each coach communicates – some direct and technical, others intuitive and motivational.
Even more interesting: how differently athletes respond to those styles.

My biggest takeaway: Technique matters – but timing the coaching moment is what really unlocks progress.
