ThePADDLER 16
The hope is that this year is just the start of increasing participation and building paddlers surfing skills and knowledge . We want to get club coaches down over the winter to build up the number of skilful surf leaders and coaches around the country . It ’ s a great sport that shares many skills with other disciplines but also has some unique etiquette and features worth knowing if you want to maximise your surfing sessions .
Of course , we ’ re a bit biased , but nothing beats the feeling of surfing a beautiful peeling wave as you glide across its face turning up and down and bouncing off the white water as it nears the beach ! The great thing about the sport is that there is always a wave that suits you , whether an unbroken green wave looming over your head or a small white water wave closer to the beach , you decide . Surfing is a WOW sport available to anyone on almost any craft !
So come along to the Worlds and have a look at the best and support your national teams . But also get in touch about coaching and development opportunities for you and your club . I ’ ll be happy to hear from you .
