my brother in law was supposed to teach my this fall...but he didn't :(
It's the best thing ever! I'm not anywhere near being very good..I could barely stand on the board, but I can't wait to try again! Everyone loves snowboarding..but I can totally see surfing as my thing.
it just seems like surfing may be scarier, because you can get hurt worse
See..it's the opposite in my mind. I think snowboarding is a lot faster and scarier, I feel very safe in the water for the most part. I mean..the surf board landing on my head did hurt a lot but that's why you never surf alone!
i guess i'm just scared because of heard of people getting cut up in reefs
I dont think the jersey shore has that many reefs... so when i go surfing, im not worried about that, i think the gettin slammed into the sand would hurt a bit...
Only thing I am scared of are sharks; Water , Reef, Sand Breaks , Yada Yada,, But sharks, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKk
i think it's so much harder than snowboarding and i feel a little more scared cuz i know people who have gotten seriously injured by their boards. but it sucks cuz there are no really good surf spots close by anymore and conditions aren't always too cooperative.
Manasquan Inlet has been pretty desant this year, especially when we had all that hurricane weather.. even still, it's not bad!!
