SURF : Waves
Rolling
waves
- as a beginner, you're looking for a wave that breaks
gently or "rolls" at the top. Also called spilling waves.
Pitching
waves - are waves that break quickly from top
to bottom are far more difficult to catch.
Beginner
waves are Waist high or smaller is a good size
for the beginner.
Expert
waves are anything head high or above could
hurt the novice surfer.
Rip
Currents Happens when water is carried toward
shore by waves, it sometimes gets funneled back to sea
in strong currents called rips. If you get caught in
one, paddle parallel to the beach until you pop out.
Don't tire yourself trying to fight against it. Many
surfers use rips to get outside the breaking waves.
