Another great day at the world’s best beginner wave! Our surfers enjoyed a bump in wave heights over the previous few days. The waves rolled in at around the shoulder-high range, and the wind remained light throughout the session. The sky was slightly overcast, which did not dim the smiles of our surfers. The surfers worked on wave selection and catching green waves, which is the next step after a surfer has developed the ability to pop up in the functional stance and control the board at a basic level.

Wave selection, positioning, and paddling technique (with proper weight distribution) are keys to catching a green wave. Learning to catch green waves can be frustrating at times, but having the right instructor will make things easier and more fun.
