The Physics of Noseriding || The science of surfing's fluid dance

The noseride is one of surfing’s peak moments: part fluid dynamics, part magic.

But how does noseriding actually work? What makes this suspension between sea and sky even possible?

The Physics of Noseriding explores the question through the eyes of Namaala, a young surfer whose people were flying on the water before the world even knew what surfing was.

Her curiosity invites us to examine the sensation of levitation that unfolds as wave, surfboard and surfer come together for surfing’s fluid dance.
