There are certain terms that might confuse a beginner, and picking out your first board might seem a bit overwhelming. The only surfing instruction available to us was watching other guys in the water, copying what they where doing, and hanging on for grim death if it all came unstuck, which it usually did.
Putting in a good amount of time in the kiddies pool will mean that you are more able and experienced to take on the back break when the conditions are right. What exactly is there to learn? The more time that they ve been spent in the water, the greater their understanding of the ocean and weather conditions.
Paddling well takes some time to learn but you need to do it. The surfing sport started on longboards, and hanging ten on a longboard is way of life for many surfers. The soft construction of the board ensures you don't get hurt during the spills while you still enjoy the thrills.
Also practice paddling for waves, getting as much speed as possible, and jumping up as quickly as you can. So where ever you purchase your next board make sure they provide advice and ask you questions about the factors listed above before you buy.
