Key surf techniques every surfer must learn
♂️ Correct board positioning
Understanding where to place your body on the board is fundamental for stability and control. Proper positioning allows smoother paddling and easier wave catching.

Paddling is what allows you to move through the water and catch waves. Learning how to paddle correctly improves speed, reduces fatigue, and increases success in catching waves.

Maintaining the correct stance helps you stay stable and control the direction of the board. This is key to progressing and gaining confidence.
