Our group of beginner surfers had a fantastic morning at Baby Padang. The surfing conditions were perfect for inspiring surfers. The swell had slightly decreased in size compared to the previous day, with the best sets were in the shoulder-to-head high range. As always during this time of year, the wind was blowing very lightly, which is ideal for beginners. The conditions were clean and smooth, and the waves broke at Baby Padang’s optimal speed, allowing for long rides across the reef.

During the session, the surfers focused on mastering the control of their surfboards from the top of the wave, a crucial skill for progressing to the next level. The key to achieving this added control is to pop up into the functional stance.
