Surfing Tips...

Tip #1: Surfboards 

You will never learn how to surf if you don't get a surfboard. That's the first thing you should do. GO in search of a surfboard and as soon as you get it, start to practice. Now once you get to practice for the first time you must find your personal balance in the board. This is a good way to start because if you don't have the correct balance you will be going nowhere. That is why once you lay down you need to find the balance! Remember that!!

Tip #2: Paddling

Worst mistake you can make when paddling is paddle with both your arms, this will slow down your board in the water and it will make you grow tired faster. Always paddle with the crawl stroke; one arm first and then the other one! This will provide you with constant speed that will allow you to catch a wave and ride it as if you were riding the wind!

Tip #3: Sitting in your Surfboard

The word here is being calm!! Now that we know how to paddle and lie down on the board, we are going to learn how to sit in a board. At first you'll be all wobbly and falling sometimes. Therefore once you sit on the board you must be calm. That's the key for all this, if your calm your still and that will help you in so many ways when surfing!

Tip #4: Catching a Wave

Don't waste your energy trying to get every single waves that passes through. You must be calm or another word for it patient. The wave will come to you, and you'll know that's the wave because you know your ready and your heart is pounding and you feel the wave lifting you up, that's when you paddle hard and you catch the wave!

Tip #5: Standing Up!

Now that your paddling hard its time to know how to stand up in your board!Put your hands on the board besides your shoulder down as if you were going to do push up's. Push your upper body up while you sweep your feet under you, laying them on the line down the middle of the board, so that your weigh is balanced along the middle. Once you are up stay low, because if your to erect you might loose balance not only that always look forward! I repeat do not look down because you will fall! I repeat you will fall!! Practice this for hours, lay your board on your bed or on the sand and practice those movements watch videos and keep practicing!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, ENJOY THE WATER AND THE MANY JOYS OF SURFING!
