FIVE TIMES<br />

THE FUN<br />

How much fun is it to jump on<br />

a different board, trying to ride<br />

it and having a laugh with your<br />

friends? That’s the essence of<br />

surfing. The sun is shining and<br />

entering the water every day is<br />

mandatory, no matter what the<br />

conditions.<br />

Bring out the boards as they<br />

may be needed. You could<br />

be surfing tiny perfect glassy<br />

waves on a log or jumping on<br />

the bodyboard as the only thing<br />

breaking is the sucky shorey.<br />

Surfing isn’t about the type<br />

of board you ride or the size<br />

of waves you catch, it’s about<br />

that stoke you get every time<br />

you a catch a wave... That<br />

feeling you get that makes you<br />

think nothing else in the world<br />

matters at the moment in time<br />

when you jump to your feet.<br />

Short, Long, Lid. Pro or<br />

weekend warrior. It’s all surfing<br />

and people just do it for that<br />

same buzz they get from<br />

catching a wave.<br />

Jumping on different boards<br />

keeps things interesting and<br />

means more water time - even<br />

when it’s flat you can go for a<br />

paddle on your SUP.<br />

Get out in the surf and just<br />

have fun, who’s to say that<br />

shortboarder sitting in the<br />

lineup at pumping Snapper is<br />

having more fun than the mum<br />

catching broken waves on her<br />

bodyboard at Main Beach?<br />

Just feel the thrill of being in<br />

the ocean, have fun and ride<br />

any board you want, any way<br />

you want!<br />
