Learn to surf at 20

As a publisher of a navigation website, people send me questions all the time about how to learn to navigate. I have compiled here some frequently asked questions for people in their 20s who want to learn to surf.

1) Could someone in their twenties learn as fast as a child?

It depends on how agile you are. If you are agile, you will learn as fast as a child. If it isn’t nimble, it will become nimble, but that takes time. If you need to lose some fat to become nimble, surfing will take the fat off and still make you nimble. Paddling the waves and fighting the current is hard work.

You have to be agile and fast to get on your surfboard (the act of changing from lying position to standing on your surfboard). If you are not agile and fast when you start trying to surf, you will work so hard in the water just paddling that you will eventually become agile and fast.

2) Is surfing something anyone can learn to do?

Yes, even people who have less than 2 arms have learned to surf. The concepts are not difficult, but the physical work is. You have to be persistent to be good at surfing. Learning to paddle a wave is not easy, and once you learn it, you should be able to appear on your surfboard. Once you can do that, you will have to appear about 100 times before you can stay on the board for more than a fraction of a second. You have to tackle every step of the way.

3) Can putting the foot in the wrong position for a couple of seconds cause an accident?

Yes, that happens all the time. The good thing is that eliminations are fun because you are simply landing in the water. People say they don’t surf because they just fall off the board, but what happens is that that’s all people do. They all ride until they fall or the wave dies down. There is no reason to be scared or ashamed of falling off the surfboard.

4) Should beginners be as scared of sharks as movies make them look like?

No, you are more likely to be killed in a car accident on the way to the beach than a shark. A coconut that falls from a tree is also more likely to kill you than a shark. There are many tips online to help you avoid shark encounters.

5) Does it make any difference what kind of table you use?

Yes. To learn at 20, you need to buy an old, used, cheap longboard that is around 9 feet long. You will find the best price by buying an old surfboard from a surfer. The reason you want a large board while learning is that it will be much easier for you to stand on the board. The more surface the board has, the better it will float and the less sensitive the board will be to all slight movements of your body.
