I cannot figure out how to manage styling my hair post surf without going home and doing a full shower and blow dry (I have long, thick hair, so air drying isn’t really an option) or doing a slick back bun every day (please no). Makeup is easy, but the hair is what’s keeping me from doing early morning surfs more often. Any tips?
Don’t judge me. I know I’m high maintenance.
Hi everyone!
I’m 1.69m, 57kg and currently ride a 6'0 Flowt fish (3 fins, 38L).
I’ve been surfing for a while but inconsistently. About 3 weeks ago I started training with video analysis and I’m improving. A few weeks ago I tried a 7'6" and had so much fun on it , easier wave catching and I really enjoyed the feeling of the board.
Unfortunately, for financial reasons, I can only own one board.
I live in Lisbon/Carcavelos, Portugal, and I’m wondering whether I should:
stay on the 6'0 and progress towards shortboarding, or
move towards a midlength (around 7'0–7'6) and develop more of a glide/flow style.
What are the main differences in terms of progression, wave catching, turning and overall surfing style? And which direction would you recommend for my size, level and local waves?
Thanks
Hii
I'm a very beginner surfer and new to this sub. I've been surfing in Santa Cruz, CA for the past two ish years and typically wear a 4/3 wetsuit to keep warm. I'm going to Kauai in a couple weeks and will be surfing a lot with my partner's family. I am wanting to buy a new spring suit or rash guard and am overwhelmed by all of the options. I'm not really sure what is best. What would you guys recommend I purchase and wear for the most comfortable warm water surf session? Bonus points if the brand is affordable! Do I need reef booties? Any recommendations and advice regarding surfing in Kauai is appreciated.
