Stand Up Paddling Vs Wave Surfing
I’m not a spring chicken anymore (53 years old) and have never learned to surf. I’ve never taken a lesson before, but I see that you also include stand up paddling and wave surfing. Which of the two is easier to learn?
Answer
For most people the Stand Up Paddling will be much easier to learn. Usually, paddlers will be up and maneuvering on their own within about fifteen minutes. The boards are big and stable, and of course, you won’t have to deal with the motion of the waves. This is a great exercise anyway and one that you might be able to do on any flat body of water near where you live, so it’s a great skill to learn. It’s also a lot of fun!
