I’m still considered a beginner and I don’t do any of this. These are people who don’t know anything about surfing but want to learn, don’t call them kooks or be rude, they are new.
“Signs of a beginner surfer: they do things wrong” you’ve been a beginner not only at surfing, but other things in life too. We don’t go into things as experts.
So what if they are new, and I have been surfing for 6 years and I still use the colored sun screen, I don’t understand stand why protecting your self from sunburn means you are new
Ah yes, telling people not to put their wetsuit on backwards, fins on backwards, and not to drop in on people is very judgemental and not at all helpful.
Ok so I was at the beach a few months ago and I had just gotten out of the water I was taking of my wetsuit and this dude walks by with his wet suit and fin backwards and I couldn’t help but burst into laughter 😂
1.) they wear a rash guard or anything under their wetsuit. 2.) they paddle with their feet spread apart. 3.) they sit on their board with the nose out of the water. 4.) they sit way too far out 5.) they care way too much about being cool and forgot it’s all about the stoke. Just have fun and you’ll get there in time if you keep at it. HB in the house!
I am beginning to see the best surfers at my local breaks acted like: They are the ones usually sitting by themselves day in and day out, calmed and alert, and catched every wave coming their way. The ones that being aggressive and tried to catch every wave, and yelling at people to get out of the way. They usually not that good. They think they are better than they truthfully are.
Bass ackwards in wetsuit. Make sure dude is surfing in Long Beach. Where breakwater stops virtually every swell except a SSEast swell. Which will occur this winter. Great post.
The surf etiquette part depends on which beach you’re surfing at. For example I’m still a beginner and I go to a certain beach that has lots of beginner surfers where instructors can teach without having to be bothered by the surf etiquette.
Alright I’ll just let my ginger ass nose fall off from skin cancer at the ripe old age of 28 cuz some dude doesn’t like the fact that people wear coloured sunscreen on their face👌👌👌
go with friends, using a foamy is usually what you start with. its nice to have friends to go with you that know what theyre doing so they can help you. its easy to get discouraged but just keep pushing yourself. i went on days that were even big waves for my friends and i couldnt keep up with them. in the beginning youll be slow and itll be hard to paddle all the way out there but overtime your shoulders will get stronger and youll get the hang of it 🤙
@leila9424 also learn how to duck dive or turtle dive so you can get thru the waves easier. i recomend watching surf videos too. anywhere from tutorials to professional surfing
Start with small waves, mostly whitewater before u move on to the bigger stuff. I recoment starting with a bigger board and doing some ballence exersises or even skate boarding. Hope this helps
All you people saying he's shaming, he's not. He's teaching. Stop being offended for a hypothetical beginner and take notes so you don't make the same mistakes
these comments are laughable. pointing out rookie mistakes and shaming someone for being a beginner are not the same thing. i’m a beginner and had i not learnt these things from a surfer, i’d still be out there making these mistakes. lighten up everyone.
I been bodyboarding Los Angeles County for 2 years and surfers are naturally just jerks 😂. So I drop in on them all the time on my boog and laugh , i snaked these two tourists from Mexico in February this year , they were all winter geared out and had brand new gear worth thousands , here I am in my spring suit and a 60$ boog and snake both of them and just jog off back to my tent and laugh with my girl. Needless to say. I bought a 10$ long board from some rich kid in LB , he blessed me for real , it’s beat the shi but I’m going to become a great king boarder and make little cry hard surfer lads mad 😂😂😂
Arrête d'être méprisant mec ! Je crois que t'as pas une âme de surfeur et qu'à l'inverse de beaucoup de débutants tu n'as rien compris au surf et à sa philosophie.
What annoying voice dude.. reminds me one of my teachers from high-school miss Dorothy hahahah..okay everyone pay attention what are the six ways ...hahahhaha
Why is everyone such a baby about it? New surfers put people in danger. They’re oblivious to their surroundings. They don’t support local board builders. They leave trash on the beach, etc etc etc. localism is great when you’re on the good end of it. My local beach is ALWAYS clean and uncrowded, and people can take their kids out there without a beginner running them over and getting all pissy when someone tries to hold them accountable.
Sign 6, they’re not a toxic gatekeeper yet
Gate keeping what exactly?
@@jelly5289skill apparently 😂
😂😂😂😂 perfect comment
I have been surfing for 38 years and for me all beginners are very welcome
Maybe not be gatekeepers and make fun of people who are still learning. Must make you feel superior though
hes not gatekeeping anything though? hes just listing common mistakes lmfao, are you a twitter user?
@@oddisire no I don’t have Twitter, why?
@@AD-hh6dd they be mad about everything and just straight up try and cancel everyone 💀

@@N9GM did you get lessons or learn of TH-cam like me?
@@francescavigil9067 I'm pretty sure you have dropped in someone at any points.
A kook is a bigginer, or someone thats not new and just sucks
i almost learned how to surf in junior lifeguard. I still can’t stand on the board, but I know all the basics of surfing.
Nah they’re kooks
“Signs of a beginner surfer: they do things wrong” you’ve been a beginner not only at surfing, but other things in life too. We don’t go into things as experts.
Thats me and you know what fuck it at least I’m having a good time while learning.
We all start from somewhere
Yessss shaming ppl to try new things, way to go
how was he shaming though
1 sign someomes a kook
Calling someome a kook
So what if they are new, and I have been surfing for 6 years and I still use the colored sun screen, I don’t understand stand why protecting your self from sunburn means you are new
Maybe you're not a beginner anymore but still a kook 🤙🏼
I've seen people who have been surfing for years still kook 😂
@@phisitpooratanachinda7894🤣🤣
@@manocpjaevel😂
he’s just pointing out common mistakes, don’t get your titties in a twist
And you are born as a Genius and never was a beginner one surfing ha?! I dont like your vibe...thats not like surfers or skaters should do
Judgemental
How?
Literally helpful tips for people to not do of these things especially the fins and the wetsuit wtf, isn’t it common sense?
Ah yes, telling people not to put their wetsuit on backwards, fins on backwards, and not to drop in on people is very judgemental and not at all helpful.
I've been surfing over 25 years now and I don't care what you say, Zinka still rocks.

lmaoo

I love zinka
A friend of mine sheepishly admitted that as a grommet, he waxed the bottom of his surfboard. He's now an old timer and a pretty good longboarder.
God is there a community out there that isn’t toxic, I’m yet to find one
I wanna learn how to surf so bad
almost every beginner I've met is extremely kind and does their best to respect others. Also stop shitting on new surfers just to feel superior.
surfing is a leisure activity. If you’re not having fun while doing it, try something else
I don’t know which one I laughed at more, the wetsuit or the fins
It's easy to tell. If there not a good surfer they are probably a beginner.

It's the paddling.
Don't be judgmental, simply use this clear sign in the same way you might view an 'L' plate driver.

one time as a bigginer I SWEAR IT WAS AN ACCIDENT that i totally snaked another surfer 💔
I love multicoloured zinc 🩷🧡💚
Been surfing 10 years. I’m still a beginner 😂
You forgot to mention us beginners eat shit every single wave we catch 😂
That last one is you at Malibu 😂
I’m a beginner but none of these are me😂😂😂😂
the easiest way to tell is if they dont surf well they are probably a begginer.
My list of signs of a beginner surfer is simpler, only a single item…
1…they can’t surf
Yooo ain’t nothing wrong with that sunscreen, makes me feel like an absolute warrior
localism has spread to fuckin youtube lmao
Most underrated comment of all time 😂
Ha ha we all kooks in the beginning some just always kooks in the end
BEGINNER surfer did you say? Yep that’s me.
Brazilians & French veterans go on anything
That first one is crazy lol
Alright I’ll just let my ginger ass nose fall off from skin cancer at the ripe old age of 28 cuz some dude doesn’t like the fact that people wear coloured sunscreen on their face👌👌👌
I'm not a beginner surfer; I'm just shit at it.
So what?
That surf instructor is bricked up
Guilty. And I can't tell what's whong with the wet suit
Its on backwards
Sounds like mistakes 8 year Olds with no internet would make
U do private coaching?
Title should read: "1 Sign I'm a Massive Douchebag"
Bruh I wanna learn how to surf but idk where to even begin
✨Falling✨
so good haha
I agree with everything but the Zinka
The last 2 are the real ones
Who's going to teach me how to surf ??😢
I really wanna start surfing, does anyone have some advice?

I’ll take zink over cancer bro

instructors are beginners
So true
#6 they go straight lol
The word "Kook" is still not in their vocab
This kinda seems off if someones knew teach them help them why jist make a jokey vid
Atleast they trying
Im kinda a beginner because i dont wear a suit and i take every wave
same bro lol
you were a beginner too
And that just fall
bro zinka
6th sighn , they love to post themselves surfing .
All you people saying he's shaming, he's not. He's teaching. Stop being offended for a hypothetical beginner and take notes so you don't make the same mistakes
They mount their boards on top of the car with the fins towards the rear.
Fins Forward always in case the board comes loose
also they always stink bug style ervy tine
Your paddling technique is a big tell.
these comments are laughable. pointing out rookie mistakes and shaming someone for being a beginner are not the same thing. i’m a beginner and had i not learnt these things from a surfer, i’d still be out there making these mistakes. lighten up everyone.
Surfing gatekeepers are the worst
5 signs someone makes poor content.
Stop making fun of people who are still learning
No shit
6th the only make videos taking about sutfing and never actually surf
I think someone who makes videos like this is the biggest kook in the water and they're just telling you all the dumbshit they are guilty of doing 😂
new surfers deserve to be shamed. get lessons or get out.
I did take lessons. And I’m a beginner
Wtf
Why do these kids keep putting on sink sunscreen
I been bodyboarding Los Angeles County for 2 years and surfers are naturally just jerks 😂. So I drop in on them all the time on my boog and laugh , i snaked these two tourists from Mexico in February this year , they were all winter geared out and had brand new gear worth thousands , here I am in my spring suit and a 60$ boog and snake both of them and just jog off back to my tent and laugh with my girl.

You’re using the term “snake” incorrectly kook
I don’t need 5 signs to spot a kook. I can tell someone is lame by they way they wear their shorts. 😂😂😂
Oof someone was the target audience and it shows
You’re mean

I don't know anyone who didn't start out as a kuk!
The hole surfing world hates this guy @kookoftheday
You can revert back to kookism when you get older. I have.
Multi colored sunscreen instead of cancer 🤣
What's wrong with being a beginner surfer? 🥹
Why you guys think so much of yourself ,😳
We like it we are learning surfing as well not being a duck 🤔
