In the early 1900 s the Hawaiians organized the Hui Nalu surf club and competed in neighborly surf competitions with the Outrigger Canoe Club. 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.
A surfboard that has enough flotation for your body size will be crucial to how easy it will be to stand up. Test the water first, you might be able to get away with board shorts, but I would recommend a rash vest also. Save the drinking for after your surf.
The North Shore covers almost 20 miles of beautiful, open sandy beaches that produce mammoth 20-30 foot waves from October to February. The surfing sport started on longboards, and hanging ten on a longboard is way of life for many surfers. You'll need to do a lot of this later on, and it also improves your balance.
When learning to surf you have to begin where everyone else does. 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.
