While a typical pre-winter May Southerly swells have not yet created any lasting impacts at Terrigal beach, but that certainly does not stop some local surfers to have a bit of fun, like this dude.
He actually beat me today to manage getting out there at the crack of dawn. And fun he had with his SUP.
I have been thinking for a while whether I should try out SUP surfing. It seems taking a big trend at Central Coast here, particularly for small days. I still prefer the traditional ways, as paddling out with arms and do the usual hang ten. To me, it is more fun and challenging.
These SUP guys certainly know how to have fun. But for some, if not knowing what they are doing and have little respects for fellow surfers, they could be lethal weapons. Some sneak behind you and drop-in.
My point is, surfing is a fun sport. It is even more fun if you know how to share the waves, and respect those already are on it. It is a sport that you compete your own self and not to all others, if you are not in any surf competition.
And while the length, size of SUP boards make it easy for you to get on a wave, remember a rule that give other a fair go. That is what surfing is all about.
Hang Ten!
Thanks for reading, Folks!
