I have been surfing on a fish surfboard almost everyday for over 10 years.
Why?
Its easier to catch more waves, make more radical turns and have more fun. Have you ever went surfing and watched the surfers that are surfing on the wrong surfboard for that break?
Oh I bet that you thought you can catch a wave and ride it with any shape surfboard, I did to when I was a grom. I thought that with talent, skill and dedication that I could surf on any surfboard on any wave. Sure some surfers that have been surfing for years and years can pull it off.
But why?
Learn the surfboard shape that works best for you! Try different shapes for the surf break that you are surfing.
Pay close attention to who is catching all the waves and the type of surfboard that they are using.
Yesterday I went surfing, at my surf break we mostly know everyone. But I really didn’t see any one familiar which is unusual.
So they don’t know that I surf there everyday. I get the basic bull shit people cutting back at me etc.
Until I start to catch wave after wave then surprisingly, people start to notice that maybe they are at my surf break
On the average I caught 5 times the amount of waves than any of them. I am serious. All because I am surfing on a fish surfboard. More float more speed = more waves!
So like I have been saying if you want to catch more waves and bring your surfing to the next level try surfing on a fish surfboard.
