How To Prepare For The Surf
Every day, thousands of tourists come to Bali not only to enjoy the beauty of the island, swim in the ocean and rest, but to try surfing. It's not for Bali, especially the Cuta resort. best place in the world to teach this type of sport.
Choose the board.
Very often, there are poor tourists in the ocean, trying to get on the board and falling constantly. The reason is, by looking at the cool serf movies, they're trying to take the same short boards, forgetting that the more board space, the more it's stable.
At school, you'll get a board based on your growth, your weight and your abilities. As a rule, most students on the first day get boards of 8, 6 or 9 feet (1 ft is 30, 48 cm), they get comfortable and safe. G-boards from Australia are considered the safest. In addition to the fact that you need to catch your wave on the first day and walk on it, safety is also very important.
Get to practice.
1. Position on board
Before you get on the board, you have to learn to lie on it and rage. When we lay on the board, we jump on the side of it, first put our chests, then our feet and check the position, on the longboard, usually you have to point out:
- On board (he must be lifted 15-20 cm from water level);
- toes shall touch the tail of the board
- legs must be together.
- You need to lie in the middle.
- All yours. weight should be concentrated in the stomach.
In your first class, you catch a foam first.
2. Grab
If you're learning to catch a foam, you're starting 3 meters before she touched you.
So, we're on the board, check our position, look back (on the ocean, see the wave) and... start the rage.
It is also important to respect the proper burial technique.
- It's important to keep the board warm,
6. If you're taken to the ocean, don't in any case try to rage against him towards the shore, you can lose your strength and drown. To float out of the current, try the verb parallel to the shore: the current width is small 10 to 30 metres, and it will not work.
