You just get out past the break and you sit on your board until you see a wave coming and then when you start to see waves coming you just get ready to start paddling and then you try and throw yourself into the wave and try to stand up. These are the guidelines you should always follow while surfing.
Have a couple of lessons first, maybe try a few different surfboards of various shapes and sizes, and then think a little more about what board is best for you. And how do you know which board to use. It's as simple as finding someone who is willing to teach you some preliminary techniques and show you the tips and tricks of surfing.
For the intermediate or expert skill level surfers out there, the choice is yours for the type of surfboard you want to use, and it will depend on the type of surfing you want to do. The gun can perform tricks when used by highly skilled surfers, but for a beginner, the gun would need waves that most beginners would find overpowering. The surfing sport started on longboards, and hanging ten on a longboard is way of life for many surfers.
Practice jumping up in one motion, standing side on and keeping the board planing if possible. Be sure to get wax for your water temperature, as otherwise the wax can melt off or become slippery.
