It s all about conquering fear, learning water safety, expanding your ocean and wave knowledge, and returning to the true essence of surfing, fun and relaxation. The best way to learn how to surf is first hand, so after reading this article, go out there and surf, surf, surf.
There are ways to save yourself embarrassment, money, and expedite your learning time if you follow these easy steps. Deciding what to do is all just a matter of experience. Regardless of your reason for seeking out a surfing instructor there are a few things that you should consider mandatory, a long history of surfing, up-to-date first aid certification, proven surf rescue experience, and a thorough knowledge of wave, weather and wind conditions.
Aside from the possibility that a serious spill might put you off surfing for good, big water surfing without the necessary experience is irresponsible at best, suicidal at worst, never surf in conditions you aren t ready for, and only experiment under the watchful eye of a professional surfer or an experienced buddy. If you have someone that catches the wave and kind of waits for it to pick up you will see them gain speed fast and then just launch out of the wave like a rocket. With so many boards out there to choose from, it will help to keep certain parameters in mind to narrow down your search.
The type of board you will want to find should fit your skill level, your height, and the type of boarding experience you want to have. Last but certainly not least, having an instructor to teach you the basics of surfing, safety, and the rules will help you get the most out of your surfing sessions, while making friends at local surf spots.
