No offence to beginners but stay to the shallows until u know the basics, especially duck diving. beginners in australia are getting absolutely farkin ridiculous! it is only a matter of time before someone dies from a board hitting them. theres was a 10 yr old local surfer a few days ago in byron bay, NSW that had his skull crushed by a beginners board being flung. Im not saying dont surf, because suring is such a great thing. just be aware of your surroundings. PLEASE read this article:
