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 />
