In the Surf...

Entering the Surf

You now know your body positioning and your ready to start entering the surf, but, how do you get out there?

As a beginner you should only walk out as far as waist deep water and keep your feet on the bottom at all times.image

First of all, attach your legrope around your leg so the cord is sticking to the outside back of your ankle. Pick up your surfboard with your hands on the identified chest line and then hold it to one side (whatever feels most comfortable). Start walking out into the surf, be careful not to trip over on your legrope. When a wave comes towards you simply lift the surfboard up and over and keep progessing out until you are in waist deep water or a few metres in front of where the waves are breaking (break zone).

Never carry your surfboard if front of you while entering the surf, if you do, when the wave comes it has a much bigger area to hit and it will knock you backwards and most likely under water. Keep your nose pointing out to the ocean at all times.
