Great advice. Over summer I had a session where I took ages to get out the back on a fairly big day. By the time I got out there I was stuffed and wiped out on the first wave that came!
I just started going out this past week for the first time in 25 years. A lot of what you said is good advice that I had forgotten. I am starting a whole month on the beach. It is cold but pumping the blood keeps me warm and a quick jump in the spa after get feeling back in the toes. Looking forward to getting out tomorrow. The dawn patrol is my time, cold but empty.
This is great to hear. Glad you are enjoying your time back in the water. Be sure to checkout the rest of our videos on our channel. www.youtube.com/@bodyboard_holidays
I need to do that learn patience. Studying the waves corresponds with this video and Rob. Lulls yeah lulls and gullys’ very true about the shape of natural forces.
After a 2hr drive it’s difficult not to rush in there when it’s pumping....especially when you’ve been in lockdown for 3 months! Going to Thurso tomorrow...let’s hope I use my 🧠
Thanks a lot Ash. Glad that it helped out. You should join us across the water from you in Bali for a bodyboard-holiday! Is there anything else that you'd like to learn? thanks
I hope that it helps you get out there easier and score more waves per session. Let me know if you'd like any further tips as I'm putting them together all of the time. Thanks Rob
You mentioned walking backwards until it's chest high, but I find it hard to even stand still when a wave comes, while facing back. How to hold your position against those waves? Thanks for this video btw!
Hey Ming, thanks for the question. As you walk out backwards with your fins on it's really important to look over your shoulder in the direction that you are going. Make yourself as small to the oncoming waves as possible and really, aggressively step in to the oncoming wave to stop it knocking you back to the shore. Check out this advice clip, you should find it useful; ruclips.net/video/IcpWHXxKaV0/видео.html thanks, Rob
Hey there, I would say that waves of that size and frequency would be small, probably created by a local wind system so only offering short rides. I'd look for waves that are a bit bigger with a much bigger period of 12 seconds or more. Good luck!
It's our Secret Morocco trip, we visit here in March and November each year. Always fun and there are no other riders here, loads of great peaks to score! Check this link - www.bodyboard-holidays.com/the-holidays/africa/morocco/secret-morocco/
Hey Karl, thanks for the comment. Remember that Rips can be useful if they carry you in the direction that you want to go and that you are confident that you can paddle across and out of the current. Definitely a useful way to get through the break line is to identify where the waves aren't breaking and paddle out there. Good luck and stay safe. Rob
Great advice. Over summer I had a session where I took ages to get out the back on a fairly big day. By the time I got out there I was stuffed and wiped out on the first wave that came!
A bit of extra time and planning at the beginning of the session can really help. Good luck with your paddle outs! Rob
@Aquatic Mullet It happens to the best of us from time to time. A bit of planning can help out though : )

You've got to let mother nature help you! I'm glad that it was helpful! Rob
Good advice to chill out and assess the situation before hitting the water.
Save yourself a lot of time in the long run! A quicker paddle out means more waves and ultimately more fun!
I love bodyboarding , I’m 33 , I love wiping out and getting mogged by Poseidon hahaha
Glad you're enjoying it!
loving the chill short videos, very insightful
"line up with a marker on shore" brilliant
It's helped me out to score waves loads of times. I hope that it's useful for you as well! Thanks Rob
Mate, you are the man! Thanks! Greetings from sunny n´ wavy Portugal!

Are 0.4m waves with a frequency of 3s a good ones ??
Hey there, I would say that waves of that size and frequency would be small, probably created by a local wind system so only offering short rides. I'd look for waves that are a bit bigger with a much bigger period of 12 seconds or more. Good luck!

Looks like Portugal to me, I could be wrong mind you.
French Atlantic coast is like that too.

'Riptide is your friend'. I'll have to remember that one next time out....
