The only surf school the first surfers attended was the school of hard knocks, heavy wipe outs, and plenty of peer pressure. It took me years to learn what good surfing instruction from an experienced coach can teach you in hours today.
That is because they wanted to make surfboards more durable yet light weight and easy to carry and use. A surf instructor is the best investment a new surfer can make in their surfing future. Easier to carry and manage out in the water but with all the surfing ease of a longboard.
As the wave passes over you, push off with your feet and streamline your body. Often you can hire these boards near your local beach, but if not, try and borrow someones mal. If you want to go down the face of the wave, you have to keep your head down.
The breaks in the area that will get you totally stoked are Boneyards, Dungeons, Kitchen Windows, Phantoms and Magnatubes. If you are surfing on a patrolled beach make sure that you keep within the designated surfing area.
