Look away if you want to live: a bit on target fixation

from The Wipeout Weekly - Surf Podcast

If you've ever been run over, run over someone else, dinged a board, or had yours destroyed in a surf collision—this episode is for you. We're talking target fixation: that sneaky brain glitch where you stare at the very thing you're trying to avoid… and then crash right into it. From dropping in on strangers to nose-diving into sandbars, it's not always your technique—it might just be where you're looking.
