First Surf: Data Collection 🏄♂️
We talk about this a lot on our surf coaching camps. When you're on a boat, you might surf a new wave every other day. The first surf is what we call data collection. You're not there to rip—you're there to learn.
Here’s what you’re gathering:
How does the wave break?
Where is it breaking?
What’s the tide change like?
It’s all about getting the feel of the place, especially when you're working on new skills or breaking old habits. New crowd, new wave—it’s a lot to take in.
By your second session, you've built awareness. You know the speed of the wave, how it interacts with the reef, and you can start making better decisions in the water. 🌊
So, don’t put pressure on yourself for that first surf. Treat it as a learning experience, and you’ll be set up for better surfs afterward.
