Definition : Re-entry

Dernière mise à jour le 19 December 2023

Definition: The re-entry is a manoeuvre in which the surfer attacks the lip of the wave and then is really sent back down the wave by the lip. So there's a moment of real suspension as the lip starts again.

Cette manoeuvre permet donc d’accélérer encore sa vitesse.

Ce qui est également à noter, c’est que le re-entry en anglais, c’est en fait le roller(a term we use in French only).
