- Learning how to surf can be expensive, and often information about how to get better is 'drip fed'. This video explains everything you need to know about learning to surf...for FREE! From equipment, to standing up and even basic turns. And yes, the video goes for 10 minutes, however the tutorial goes for 8... :)

Thanks... I just tired it for the first time on my 59th birthday - and I'm going to stay with it. Great videos!
Happy birthday and good luck. Surfing might be the best birthday present ever!
Was it difficult to pick up ? And if so....did others around you ridicule you? I'm 21 and am dying to learn how to surf. I'm very nervous too, especially since the only practice I have with balancing is from skiing
@@TheSurfersJourney Quick question, I've never surfed before, but - does the type of swimsuit matter for surfing? Any material or gear to choose over the other? And if so, do I need a full body suit to protect my skin from anything?
@@Great_Lake_Surfer Just make sure your wetsuit is appropriate for the water temperature where youll be surfing. And no one will care about you being there as long as you're not endangering them or yourself
Man, it’s been a looooong 8 minutes. Feels like years. 😏
I have been aspiring to surf and I have been watched all of your videos, also “drip fed”. Words of a legend
Sick!!!
First of all, I love your videos! My little 7 year old (and I) are stoked about our surfing lessons this coming August. I am the kind of person that always does extensive research when I make plans to learn anything. I want to wrap my head around whatever it is so that when I actually get to doing (whatever it is I am going to do or learn); I have a mental grasp and have practiced it in my mind already. It has always yielded awesome results for me in cutting learning curves through the power of visualization.
So, naturally...I have been researching and learning everything I can about surfing (that's how I found your channel) and looking at surfing films. I love it when they show the surfers in slow motion while doing maneuvers. I noticed something that people reading this might think that I am crazy:
When I watch adept surfers surf, it reminds me of dancing, especially Balinese, Breakdancing, Popping, and Hip Hop dancing. I am convinced that surfing is not surfing but dancing with the ocean. Just like dancers, some surfers' dance moves look more stylish than others. I don't know if I am the only one who has acquired this paradigm. I would love to read or hear your thoughts on this.
I look forward to my lessons. They seem so far away!!!! Cheers, and keep those awesome videos coming!
Hi Nathaniel, thanks for sharing mate, some interesting points. In regards to comparing surfing to dancing, I think that makes sense for sure. Good luck with your lessons!
I have really been struggling w my pop-up. I skateboard and snowboard (and do it goofy - right foot in front); I was told to surf the same way I do those sports. This video said to have your dominant (the foot you kick a ball with) foot in the back (I was told to do the opposite) and I tried popping up with the left foot in front and WOW!!!! The difference is amazing! It's far more comfortable this way! 😍
Hey Gabrielle, that is awesome feedback, well done! Stoked that this video helped you out :)
Love this, keep up the awesome content!
Thank you, lots of content to come Lincoln
Thanks for the video dude!
Can't wait to begin surfing for the first time!
Have fun Gabriel, you won't look back! Thanks for your feedback
Omg thanks so much, this video is exactly what I have been looking for! Most vids forget us newbies need to take baby steps to learn the feel of the water and start their tutorials at unbroken waves. I have been dreaming of surfing for years, just bought my foamie, and will be getting in the water for the first time this coming week! Been watching tutorial vids, doing excercises to build up muscle, and doing practice popups in my spare time but I know I still am not ready to tackle unbroken waves! This video finally offered the first steps actually in the water to get the confidence Im desperately craving! Can't wait to put it into practice!
Cheers from Martha's Vineyard Massachusetts, brother!
I've been saying, I'll be glad if I simply catch a few waves this summer but now I'm thinking I need to up my expectations haha! I've been so nervous but this vid really makes me know I'll be just fine! Woot!
Hey Michelle, good luck out there! I am happy to hear that this video has helped you out, now you just need to put it all into practice. You have chosen the worlds best sport!
Thanks so much! I'm on Maui atm and really wanted to try this while I'm here! 😊
Beautiful place to be Izzy, enjoy and good luck!
Just watched surf’s up and it lit a spark in me
🔥
God....I'm so excited !! Going to practice positioning once my foot heals up and I dont need my crutches anymore :D
Good luck Hippy, let me know how you go once you get back into the water!
Loved this video. Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback Maphefo
Your videos are so informative. Thank you for this.
Hi Ji Ji, glad you like them and thank you for watching.
Cheers for that.Good job mate!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching.
love it
haha wow you pimped up this lesson! Just saw the "original" vid.
Thanks for the tipssssssssssssssss xx
Hope you enjoyed it Khaleila
Great video! I'm just starting out so this is helpful. How about a video on how to get rolled safely if you time the waves wrong? (asking for a friend)
Hey Ben, great idea and thanks for your feedback. I will put something together (for your friend) soon
Bro...love ya vids, heart as my bro
Thanks for your support!
Nice!
Hey Linda, thanks for your feedback :)
great video! quick question though - in your previous one you mentioned that you would recommend either a longboard or a fish (because it could suit eventual progression) -- is there any reason you focused more on a foam longboard this time around? would the learning curve on a fish be too steep for most beginners? thanks in advance :)
I focused on the longboard because it is the easier of the two. With popping up and riding a wave as fast as possible the main goal, rather than gradual progression being considered. That being said, a high volume fish is still a good choice for those striving for progression as fast as possible. More to follow on this :)
Oh look. First :-) This brings back fond memories of those first sessions as a beginner. Loving the new channel. Keep up the great work Ryan! Are you and Kale still working together on How To Rip, or are you now focusing on your own channels?
Nice work Andy and thank you. We are still working on How To Rip as well :)
Good summary 👍
Thanks Jaime
@@TheSurfersJourney Ryan, can you do a video discussing the first things you need to work on or adjust when you down size for the first time? For example, I have been riding a 7'6 fun board & now have on order a 6'4 fish. The first few sessions that I take it out, what are some things to concentrate on? I am 5'2.
Thanks for the amazing video! Any size recommendations for a board for a beginner?
Thanks for watching Cooper. How tall are you and how much do you weigh?
@@TheSurfersJourney My pleasure! I'm about 150 lbs and 6' tall
How long did it take you to get super comfortable? Sick stuff man!
Hey Thomas, thanks for your feedback. Comfortable with what skill exactly? Still lots of learning going on every surf :)
@@TheSurfersJourney Just popping up on the board and then riding the wave.
im gonna take surf lessons in my bday
Happy birthday, the greatest gift anyone could ask for!
Can young kids like maybe 8 to 13 years olds surf and if they can, what surfboard do they need
Absolutely! I would suggest something like a 7ft foam board.
@@TheSurfersJourney okay thanks
Is there a specific swim suit for surfing?
I wear a wetsuit or a spring suit when I paddle board (I'm new to surfing tho!)
There are certainly wetsuits and swim wear designed specifically for surfing. You should be spoilt for choice.
@@TheSurfersJourney ok thanks
@5.43 you should let beginners NOT to grab the side of the rails but rather put your hands underneath chest. Great series though!
Exactly what was said in this video...Thanks Rainham1!
@@TheSurfersJourney great apologies sorry I missed that! Again great way to start your new series cheers!
