English term

riding a lot of performance affords

English to Portuguese Other Other
I am subtitling a small video about a collaboration between to surfers on the creation of a board: Twin Pin. The video starts with one of the surfers saying "I've been riding a lot of performance affords maybe two years ago, and every now and again, jumping on a twin fin and, you know, you kind of get a lot of great stuff from both, you know, you get the kind of looseness and speed out of a twin."

My question is: How can I translate into European Portuguese "riding a lot of performance affords"? Any suggestions?

@Ana, 'efforts'. IMO

@Ana He says "(...) I have been riding a lot of performance surfboards (...)". You will get it if you listen at 0.5 speed.

@Ana You may be mishearing the soundtrack. Can you post a link to the video?

I think so too, but it is what is written on the script provided to me. The link is: https://www.onboardstore.com.au/blog/blogitem_detail.php?id_...
