Our group of beginner surfers had a great morning at Baby Padang. The surfing conditions were top-notch! Compared to yesterday, the swell has increased in size considerably, with up to head-high waves on offer! Predictably, the wind was blowing slightly offshore, which is the ideal direction for surfing. The wave faces were smooth and glassy, allowing everyone to enjoy long, smooth rides.

The surfers worked on getting into the functional stance from the pop-up, which is an essential step towards progressing beyond a beginner level. Once you have developed the ability to ride from the top of the wave in the functional stance, a new level of control and speed becomes available to you.
