Surfboard riders come in all shapes and sizes and compete on the best professional circuits, earning big bucks. Beginner surfers often start on longboards, which are safer and more accessible to tackle than shortboards. At 9 feet or more in length, low boards are easy for beginning surfers to paddle, stand up, and back to shore.
Paddle Out
Run the longboard into the sea until the water is waist-deep. Then, point the board’s nose away from the edge and make sure the bottom wing is in the water.When the water rises to your waist, lie flat on your stomach and head out into the ocean using crawl strokes — one arm in the water at a time. Longboards are long and heavy, so stay in smooth water to prevent fatigue—paddle to areas where large waves have already broken up, and smaller, foamy waves are forming.
Catch the Wave
Turn the longboard to the side once it is in position in front of the oncoming waves. Lie back on the board and start making waves from behind. Keep your body close to the center of the longboard to prevent throwing it into the water. Attach the protective strap to your back ankle for added protection. Stay flat on your stomach and ride the wave if you are a beginner surfer.
Body Position
Balance yourself on the board. Push your body up and stand on the running line down the center of the board to get the most stable ride. Spread your feet shoulder-width apart and clasp the board with your feet. Keep your head and your hands on either side for added balance.
Advanced Ride
The board is long and heavy, so turning requires effort. Go on the longboard. Afterward, while maintaining balance, move your feet up or down the board.
Danger Drown to Death
Like all water sports, there is an inherent risk of drowning in surfing. Although the board is helpful in drifting, it cannot be relied upon to float overhead, as it is separate from the user. A strap tied to the ankle or knee, Keeps the rower attached to the board for convenience but does not save the rower from drowning. The established rule is that if the waiver can’t or can’t handle the position of the water without his board, he shouldn’t get carried away. There have drowning incidents resulting from being entangled with the strap of a rock caught by the waiver underwater. In waves such as the Waima Mavericks, the leash can be undesirable, as the water can drag the board too far, which the release is holding at the bottom of the wave.
Collision

If placed in the wrong position, the body of a rafter is at risk of coming into contact with anything, including railroad mounds, cliffs, reefs, surfboards, and other rafters. Collisions with these objects can sometimes result. As a result, fainting, or even death, can occur. Lots of surfers jump off bridges, buildings, docks, and other structures to reach the surf. Unfortunately, they cause damage to themselves or the equipment, or both if the jump time incorrectly. A large number of injuries, up to 66%, are caused by being hit by a surfboard (forearm or fin) it happens. The fins cause deep cuts or cuts, as well as being extremely tiring. Although these bruises are minor, they open the skin to sea infection; Teams like Leharbaaz Against Sewage conduct water cleaning campaigns to reduce disease risk. They were falling off a surfboard, colliding with or injuring others while swaying, commonly refer to as a ‘wipeout’.
Marine Life
Marine life can sometimes cause injury and even death. Species such as sharks, stingrays, seals, and jellyfish can sometimes pose a threat.
Cut off water flow
Riptide is dangerous for both experienced and inexperienced surfers. A rip current is a channel of water that flows away from the coast. Since this flow is secret, the water appears calm, easily carried away by tired and inexperienced swimmers or surfers.
Sea Surface
The surface of the sea can pose a danger to the waver. If a woman falls while riding a wave, the wave tosses him around, usually downwards. Whether it is a rock break or a beach break, most surfers are seriously injured or even killed when thrown from the ocean’s lower surface. The surface of the sea can be very shallow, especially in the middle breaks during the tide. Take, for example, the Cyclops of Western Australia. It is the world’s largest and thickest reef break, with waves measuring up to 10 meters high. Nevertheless, the depth under the rock is only about 2 meters.
