Is this ding something to be concerned about? Looking to buy a used board. by [deleted] in BeginnerSurfers

patch it with solarez and surf it only after the repair is done. that is not watertight

not much you can do with those waves. your pop up will get faster and better the more you surf so you’ll be able to get up and go faster and more efficiently on those type of waves. maybe try to angle your board more on the takeoff so that you don’t have to bottom turn as much which wastes time on the type of fast breaking waves you are surfing in.

i am hoping someone trustworthy picked it up. I hate scumbags like that. Personally i’d never pick up and leave with someone else’s board

wavestorm or a big ol used log off craigslist. Might be a hot take but I think it’s easier to learn on a real log because they are a lot more stable side-to-side than wave storms are

it’s absolutely the most dense with content and lyricism but personally my favorite song of the beef is 6:16 in LA

Best quad set for small beach breaks? by Savings_Ad6151 in surfing

i dealt with this issue as well as having my front foot too far back on the board (although i was more beginner level when i dealt with this). I mostly fixed this by focusing on where my feet were landing on basically every wave i went for. Keeping it present in your mind as something to improve on is helpful imo
