Hmm, I think you need some practise at the whole thinking positive thing

Are you sure that waves don't get that steep and scary if caught to far?, cuz it's scary yo.
Yesterday I went to Mission Beach, San Diego, CA. And the waves were weird this time, by weird I mean that they were getting to steep but crumbling instantaneously giving very little ride.
I must have pearled about 10 times!
But it seemed most people were having the same problems, although most were noobs like me.
But of course, there were many pros too, and they didn't have the pearling problem, so I guess it can be done. I don't know if my board also makes it really easy to pearl
The model is an "egg" I don't know if it's the same as a funboard, I'm thinking it's about 7 feet.
Here's a pic
It barely has a rocker, the board has been a blessing when the waves are small, but pearls to much when they get steep. I'm sure a pro wouldn't have a problem with any board anyway, but I've been doing this for 6 months so far.
I'm getting really good at standing up on this board, I do it quick and keep balance, but pearling is killing me. I wonder what my next surfboard should be, Would a "fish" be a good choice?, do they come with slightly greater rocker?.
Advice apreciated. Thanks.
Have a bit more of a look around the siteavillax wrote:By the way, just found this video online, it suggest surfing at an angle when the wave is to step, that is something I haven't tried. Gonna test it tomorrow!
