How can I learn to surf?

Just as with every other skill out there, learning how to surf will also require so many things from you.

1. The first thing you need to know is that most surfers you admire today started from somewhere, meaning you also need to start as a beginner. Since surfing also requires a lot of practice time, the first thing to know is that you should always surf only at spots meant for beginners. Starting at this level will help you to know the technicalities around this skill.

2. Take your time to observe how others are surfing. Start with other beginners like you as these are your mates at this stage. Doing this will also help you to know who to move with.

3. You also need to understand the rules. Learn how surfers keep a certain distance away from themselves. Also, learn the various instances when you will enjoy the right of way and other instances that you would need to give it to others around you.

4. Also, learn how to find the right waves and get yourself a big board.
