I've finally ticked off surfing from my bucket list ๐ฅน Initially, I was too scared to try it, but actually it wasn't as difficult as I imagined it to be! After experiencing surfing for the first time, here are the do's and don'ts that you need to take note!
โ DO'S
๐โโ๏ธTake lessons - if you're a beginner, it's highly recommended to take lessons from a qualified instructor. DM me if you want to take lessons from my teacher Steve. He's a local and gives lessons at Seminyak beach in Bali at $20 for 2hrs. Super worth it!
๐Warm up and do stretches before heading to the ocean! Surfing can be physically demanding, so to prevent injuries, prepare your muscles for a safe and enjoyable experience ๐ช
๐โโ๏ธUse right equipment. Ask your instructor to give you a beginner friendly board (typically a longboard made of foam)
๐๐พStart with small, slower waves to practice first, and eventually finding your balance until you get the hang of it.
๐ซDON'TS
๐๐ปโโ๏ธDon't overestimate your capabilities and listen to your body! Surfing should be a fun activity, and as a beginner, take things slow and don't attempt to counter large waves to prevent injuries and accidents.
๐๐ฟโโ๏ธDon't ignore safety. The waves are a natural phenomenon, and you cannot control it. Always be mindful and only attempt to surf when you are confident. Better safe than sorry!
๐๐ผDon't give up easily. Surfing is a sport that needs practice, so it could be really hard at first. Don't get discouraged if you fall off frequently. They say fall down seven times, stand up eight!
๐โโ๏ธDon't forget sunscreen! Spending hours under the sun could burn and damage your skin. Protect yourself by applying sunscreen with a high SPF, wear a rash guard or a surf hat to protect yourself from the sun.
Tick off surfing from your bucket list too!
