You catch every wave the same way.
Watch for a wave that you want to ride. Lay on the board, begin to paddle, allow the wave to take your board, and pop up to enjoy the ride to shore.
And it really is that simple.
But simple doesn't mean easy.
When surfing, it seems that the trick is to allow yourself to just jump up on a board that naturally floats on a wave. The board is going to go with the wave anyway, you just happen to stand on it.
Sometimes you may be a little too early or a little too late.
Most of the time you miss because you were wondering if you're doing it right.
After 4 years of living in California, I took my first surf lesson in Pondicherry India at Kallialay Surf School. $15 USD gets you 90 minutes of quality instruction.
I've been living and working in Bangalore, India -- practicing Transcendental Meditation, leading international teams, and eating with my hands. I'm Alex Salinsky and you can see more of an American Suit in India here.
Surf's Up!
