Question

How many surfers could do aerials?

Answer 1

now these days its pretty much a standard to do one if your pro..but there are plenty of ametures just punting airs for fun (and doing them quite good)

Answer 2

I've started training my aerials but as for pros's it's commonplace as for soul as for amatuers, I know guys who are getting about 6 feet of air on 5 foot waves and that's just incredible. I've almost got an aerial down.  I dont do many aerial things though, even if I had the capabilities.  I like agressive surfing more.   If you wanted an amatuers percentage I'd say maybe 2% in reality and for pros about 98%

Answer 3

well it all depends, almost all well known surfers can do aerials, or anyone that is very good and knows how. Anyone can do them with enough practice.
