wake surfing - these are the essentials

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. Thinking of buying a new board or are you learning to surf.

If you don t have a good friend who is a surfer then you will be able to find help at your local surf shop, or by making your first couple of ventures into the water with a surf instructor. The trick to piercing an already broken wave is depth. You can find a private surf instructor by simply searching the internet for a surf instructor in the area in which you want to learn how to surf, they will surely be knowledgeable about all regional beaches and together you will choose the surf break best suited for you.

The movies opened up the genre of the surf movie and the art of surfing to non surfing people, accumulating fans and inspiring neophytes. Surfing greats such as Nancy Emerson, Corky Carroll and Frieda Zamba offer surfing lessons at some of the world s most beautiful beaches. Made from a special lycra material, rash guards are made to be worn in the water and dry very quick.

You don't want to sink. Taking surfing lessons will not only inform you of the basics of your new hobby, but it will also help you progress faster than you would trying to go out there and self-teach.
