How to Surf

Here is the step by step process of how to surf.
  1. You will need a rash guard or wet suit, a surf board and a leash.
  2. before you actually surf a wave you should practice on the beach. you just lye your board on the sand, lay on top of it, stomach down, with your toes just touching the back have your hand in chicken wings posture and lift up your chest. your first waves should be lying down
  3. Finding the perfect wave. for your first wave you should find a nice small one that is a foamy white water wave, one that is going strait towards the beach.
  4. Surfing.  remember before doing it for real try it on the beach first. lay face down on the board again and this time instead of staying down jump up so it looks like your surfing. When you jump up if you will have to decide if you're a goofy foot or a regular foot. left is regular and right is goofy. remember when you jump up have your arms out for balance.
  5. wipe outs. When you surf you will end up wiping out at least a couple times. but when you do always fall backwards. then you will never fall on the board. And when you wipe out your leash will come in handy, so when you fall you won't lose your board. Don't for get to take a deep breath before you go under.
