>>2012023Yeah it’s a great place to learn though.
No 10min paddle out.
No wait for a wave.
2hrs in the surf might get you a few rides on similar sized waves.
On the river you can ride until you fall, then just get back on a minute or 2 later. Zero effort.
You learn by standing on a wave. Compress your learning time by ??%.
Also, when you hit the salt, it’s genuinely noticeably more floaty (um.. word?) than fresh = win.
You can’t easily learn on an ocean wave the same size as a river wave.
Unorthodox advice, but time will see this become more popular I assure you.
Ex pro kayaker, no proof, I’m pissed in a tent right now in NZ ha ha fuck here’s an old pic I’ve posted before.
Doesn’t make me a surfer but I know some ways to learn.
