Shortboard klaxon! Here are some more surf tips to help you pop up on a shortboard. Yes that's right, size matters; and there are some things that you must aim to get right if you want to successfully ride a shortboard.
At Pura Vida Adventures we always start our students learning to surf out on longboards because they are easier to learn on and much more forgiving. But once you've got some experience under your belt, you may want to try riding a smaller board. In a previous video on this subject we considered how to pop up without using the toes on the board and why shortboarding requires military precision with the feet.
Here are some highlights you may want to check out in this video:
