New to surfing

Postby aimsblack » Mon Sep 17, 2012 1:27 am

Hello,

I am new to surfing. Just started about a year ago. I just bought myself a 6'4" fish. I am 5'5" and about 112lbs. I am having a hard time getting up on this board as I learned on a 9' Liquid Shredder soft board. Any tips?

Hi aimsblack, welcome to Surfing Waves!

A longer board will help. Check out some of the topics on the forum, and the articles on the main site. There's loads of tips that will help you get up.

Alternatively, practice practice practice :-D
