Why Is Surfing Addicting?
Many new surfers say they love surfing after the first time. I find many new students are coming back for more lessons because they have a passion to learn and practice on their own.
What is it that makes Surfing Addicting? I try to surf once every day. I often do afternoon sessions so I get a morning surf session or a bike ride and then an afternoon surf session.
What Are Some of the Attractions?
I find many things attractive. I love getting in the water. Right now it is not too cold and it feels very invigorating. I love the challenge each time of trying to do something well. I love my improvement as consistency creates noticeable gains. Surfers always have goals to improve or ride smaller or different boards.
Surfing keeps me in great shape. I have to stay very flexible. I have to build strength for pop ups and paddling stamina. Progress requires more physical effort in and out of the water. Nutrition is important for fuel and recovery. I like to lose weight to assist my surfing.
Feeling Great After Surf Sessions
I feel so great after getting out of the water. That has to be a high light. I have exercised. My body has been stimulated by cold water. I have faced a challenge which means adrenaline. I have hopefully improved which is an individual accomplishment. I have made another step toward long range surfing goals. I hope to be surfing when I am old.
The connection to the ocean feels different than other recreations. I love to road bike. It is my body and the bike exercising. Hiking takes a person into scenery and is also good work. The ocean, however, seems alive. It changes every day. It presents a different challenge where ever you surf. Surfers are always hoping for the good waves. Sometimes it disappoints. It is real life in an altered universe.
