i love to teach surfing. from the beginning to the end is so fun! most of the time i’m laughing because i know it’s going to be a great ride. but first things first. if you can’t surf on the sand, you can’t surf on the ocean.

i say this about 200 times/month. look forward!!!!! if you look forward, you will surf well. if you don’t look forward, you won’t surf well. pretty simple.
