They say it’s dangerous to learn to surf, but not because of the big waves, the wipeouts, or the wildlife. Your first surf lesson is dangerous because the minute you catch your first wave, buddy, you’re a goner. Hooked. You belong to the sea now, and everything else, well, kind of falls away. Whatever your reason for your first paddle out, one thing’s for certain: you won’t forget the feeling. And it’s not just about memorizing a few moves – surfing is a totally absorbing, full-body endeavor. It will be easier in some ways than you expected. You’ll be learning in the white water, on boards specially designed to float just about anyone. Your confidence will get a boost the first time you pop up (after practicing several times on the beach, of course) and cruise shakily back to shore.
