Catching the smaller waves

[CALHOUN]

First of all I know that it will take practice!
However, I get so impressed with these guys that are big, beer-belly ya never would have thought can surf this good.
They catch these little waves and ride them all the way in.
I love seeing this, and want to get that good!
Is there any tricks in doing this?
I may be asking too soon, and it is my goal to get this good!
Thanks for any insight!

Its all about getting the board in trim, once it is you can ride small waevs all the way in if you want.

You'll soon grow out of that tho

It ain't nothing but a thing, if you have the right equipment.
