Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang

Beautiful beginner surf conditions this morning! Our developing surfers enjoyed shoulder-high waves with a touch of offshore wind- exactly what a beginner surfer needs for a memorable day in the line-up! The waves were just the right size for the surfers to learn to ride down the line, stay in the power source of the wave, and begin to do turns.

Several key characteristics make Baby Padang such a great beginners’ wave. The waves break at a consistently slow pace, which allows for ample time for the surfer to learn to make adjustments on the wave. The waves are all similar in shape. And the channel makes paddling a whole lot easier.

Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang

Our beginner surfers enjoyed excellent surfing conditions at Baby Padang this morning! The waves were in the shoulder-high range, the wind was blowing offshore, the water was the perfect temperature, and the tide was in a good range. The surfers worked on identifying the feeling of the surfboard beginning to plane on the wave, which is the signal to initiate your pop-up.

Knowing when to pop-up on the surfboard is a key skill every surfer must learn. If you stand up too early, the wave will pass underneath you, and if you stand up too late, you will miss the opportunity to control the board from the top of the wave.­

Great conditions for surfing in Bali this morning! Our beginner surfers made steady progress and had a fantastic time. The waist-high waves were ideal for developing surfers who were working on finding their balance and foot placement and building their confidence. The tide was just right, the wind was blowing lightly offshore, and the waves were shaping up nicely. The lefts provided longer rides after reforming, while the rights offered a shorter but easier ride.

These conditions are perfect for nailing the basics, especially the functional stance—a key skill in surfing. Padang Padang’s gentle, consistent waves and easy access through the channel make it an ideal spot for new surfers to learn and improve.
