Your beginning in surfing should be a pleasant and easy experience, where you could enjoy the ocean from minute one, away from frustration, fear or other disagreeable feelings.
No matter your level, experience, physical condition, age or if you don´t go surfing much because you live far away from the sea, the great flotability of Longboard and its bigger dimensions than a shortboard will allow you to:
Learn EASIER and FASTER
SUFFER LESS paddling
Catch MORE WAVES per session
Surf in ALL KIND OF CONDITIONS
To sum up…
To have a GREAT TIME and ENJOY more of the ocean!
