How to use your hips for a perfect pop up

The pop-up is a critical moment in surfing, one that will often determine if you’ll be making the drop, ‎or not.‎
A reasonable pop-up will probably do the job in forgiving conditions, that is - in small A-frame waves, ‎but the real test of your pop-up is in heavy waves or tricky drops.‎
So you’re probably already familiar with the common tips, but there’s this one element that is rarely ‎mentioned, and based on our experience – it actually solves a great deal of pop-up issues.
