Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang
★★★★★
We had a beautiful morning at the surf camp’s favourite wave! The clouds parted just in time for the beginner surf lesson. The swell has backed off in size considerably, with up to head-high set waves coming in. The wind was perfectly offshore, which is the coveted condition that all surfers are after. The water was warm and tropical, everyone had smiles on their faces, and all had a great time.
The beginner surfers worked on getting their body into the correct position on the surfboard. It is essential that you have: your feet centered over the center line of the surfboard, your arms over each side of the surfboard with your elbows bent, your knees bent with the back knee tucked in, your hips loose and low, and your chest pointing forward.
