It is certainly a good position for a beginner. Such a position ensures a stable posture and is good in wind or waves. For my weight, but this attitude is too far ahead and the maximum speed would probably not exceed many 25km/h. Furthermore, this position does not allow for a faster slalom and there is a greater risk of falling if the tilt is overtaken during the curve. If both feet are directly in the axis of the surfboard, the reactions of the board are much more agile and the correction of a riding error is much more likely.
