Grabbing your rails
Grab the rails on either side of your board, between your lower waist and chest. Any further forward this will create problems for you going thru the waves and catching a wave. If you have a problem pearling when you take off, just move your hands down towards your lower waist and you will find an major difference in your take offs!
