You came out of the airport, took offense at the taxi driver, threw things at the hotel and rushed toward the dream.
Went to the beach, without thinking took surfboard as advised gay-renter for some 100K IDR ($8). Put your new Go Pro. We went into the water, not sailed to the place where the brave guys glide over the crystal clear waves, drank water, very tired and you washed up on the shore, as the whale with enabled Go Pro. Loudly cursed the failed first attempt, making plans to do.
Surf beginer in the Bali.
If you went to Bali for surfing and Bintang (the local beer) or club, magic mushrooms is the error.
I advise you to start surfing before you buy tickets to the island of Bali.
To train the balance, it could be the balance-board, slack line, skate and so on. Unable to stand for hours on one foot on the tube, too will have its effect.
Training of muscles.
The muscles that are used in surfing are not used in everyday life and training. Start with push-ups, pull-ups, training different groups the press, bottom and a few feet. These exercises will reduce the pain in muscles after surfing. Even the swimming in a pool does not load on the muscles. Tested!
Watch video tutorials, so as not to waste time instructor.
On arrival in Bali, you will begin the exploration of surf, most likely, from the coast to Kuta, Seminyak or Canggu. This sandy beach (beach Break) in the small swell allow you not to injure the psyche. Bukit (the little "appendicitis" in the southern part of Bali, separated by the airport ), it is a Reef Break (the name speaks for itself). I personally have changed two of the shorts does not matter, that does not wash out, and from what was torn.
On the coast a lot of rental surfboard (rent surfboard 50K IDR ($3,8)/2 hours) and many instructors.
Instructor.
Local, cheap and often not very well taught. Often able to speak: "paddle", "get up."
Instructors are divided into schools and voluntary workers.
School - pleasure not cheap. But good party, style, quality, responsibility.
Voluntary workers is the middle option, probably one of the best. An average of $30/2hour of study. See reviews or send me, I will advise.
If you come for a while, I recommend to take the instructor. You can find it in the Internet, but most likely you will find early.
So, you have passed the first level. Just continue to train and ride. Moreover you need to surf every day, week, without surfing and line-up as though the first time.
Trainig on slack line.
Go to the coast (Uluwatu, Bali).
First steps my wife.
My daughter is learning to paddle and roll.
Good wave.
Long board, good for training.
Shit happens.
I self repaired small dings.
One time broken board.
If you want to achieve the level, you have to live here a half year. But there is a problem after half a year, want more.
In Your head get all sorts of strange thoughts. The body becomes beautiful, but pliable. You begin to understand, to go with the flow is nicer than will be salmon.
Your life begins to change along with you.
