Families Surf Together in Oceanside
Families Surf Together in Oceanside as a fun adventure in a beach town. Anyone who visits the beaches in Oceanside sees surfers and gets the urge to learn.
Surfing is a great family adventure because everyone can be together. Beginners start in waist deep water and no one gets left behind. It is always a contest to see who will be better. It is often the moms.
The Dry Land Portion
Lessons start with a dry land portion for safety and explaining the pop up. Students practice the pop up on dry land before taking it to the water. In the water beginners are pushed into waves until they are learning to stand up.
After students have had experience being pushed into waves, they start catching them on their own. Regardless of how students are progressing, catching waves is the real fun. It seems students don’t get tired as they keep rushing back out to catch another wave.
Progressing to Bigger Waves
Once students have learned to ride to the beach on foam waves, they start paddling out through the first wave to get bigger foam waves. After a few lessons, many could start catching small real waves. This requires different timing and some courage.
Everyone begins on soft top boards because they are easier to paddle and ride and don’t hurt if they hit you. Most teens and adults start on 9′ soft tops and if they progressed in their surfing, after a few lessons they might step down to an 8′ board. After that, with many more trips to the ocean, they might consider a hard board.
