How to do invert air 1st. -Make sure you get a wave that is going to give you some speed the more the better. If the wave has a wedge in it or has a steep take off or has some size you will be able to generate speed a lot easier. 2nd. -Drive off the power pocket of the wave to use what ever speed the wave has. Some time the power pocket is at the bottom and some times it is at the top. Where depends on the type of wave. A wedge, or really steep wave has a power pocket more at the bottom which lets you drive off your bottom turn towards the lip and regular waves have the power pockets higher up and you have to stay high and race towards the lip from there. 3rd. -You are racing towards the lip with all the speed the wave can give you. Have to see where the lip is pitching and aim at it. It helps to hit the lip at the same moment it throws out. To early and you go flying off the back, to late you get stuck in the lip and sent to the bottom, but if you hit it just right you get sent soaring in to the flats like a champ. 4th. -You hit the lip at just the right time now and throw you body and board off of the lip and in to the air. 5th. -Now is the right time to tweak your board and body in to a inverted position, this means the bottom skin of your board should be facing straight up towards the sky and your head should be looking down to where you intend on landing. 6th. -As you land, try and land on the foam if you can to cushion your landing, or if you get thrown in to the flats like you want, relax and hold on, flatten out as you hit the water so the shock is absorbed equally by the whole board. Advanced tips - once you have mastered the regular invert try letting the wave throw your body out at a 180 degree angle as you invert and this will make the move look even more radical.Now go out and hit some lips and practice boosting big!
