The art of becoming one with your surfboard

It takes patience to become familiar with the nuances of a new surfboard - the adjustment period is frustrating, but almost always necessary! Just like building a relationship with a person, it takes time to develop a bond with your board, the ever-changing nature of waves adding an extra layer of complexity to the process…but then suddenly, you experience a beautiful wave where you finally understand the balance and feeling of your board just perfectly. You are on a new journey together. And it feels wonderful! Let this be a gentle reminder: give yourself and your new board grace. It takes time to get to know one-another.
