There are many surf spots and big wave spots in Phuket, such as Surin, Nai Harn, Karon, Kata and many other beaches, all have rough waves, which are very suitable for surfers to ride the wind and waves at sea.

But for beginners or those who just want to experience surfing once, Bang Tao Beach, with its long coastline and gentle waves, is the first choice, and even a novice can easily control it!

Surfing is a challenger's sport. Under the guidance of the coach, bravely step on the surfboard and chase each other with the waves.

Even for the first time participating, you will quickly fall in love with the feeling of galloping on the top of the waves.Surfing is a very handsome and sexy sport.

When the waves come, after a simple paddling, stand up quickly, and then follow the thrust of the waves, rushing to the shore, even if you are knocked down by the waves again and again, but when you finally try to stand up, you can always make people feel extremely strong.

Surfing is a very pure sport. Seeing another possibility at the seaside, willingly in the sea, peace and quiet, and a wave of your own.

After chasing the wave, even if he stood up for less than two seconds, he was as happy as a child, smiling with wide eyes. Even the people around you will be happy that you can stand up.

Having said so much, let's take a look at what novice surfers should pay attention to!

1. Environmental safety

Not every beach is surfing, even if it does. Whether the coast is sandy or rocky, whether there are reefs or undercurrents on the bottom of the sea, and observing the sea surface, where the waves come in, and where the rip currents are are all things to pay attention to before surfing.

In addition, you also need to formulate a range for the activity area, and make good use of the triangulation method at sea. Once you find that you deviate from the original position, you have to adjust it quickly, but don’t be tempted to put yourself at risk.

2. Equipment maintenance: waxing

Every time you surf, you have to take the trouble to wax the wave board again (the purpose of waxing is to stop slipping), so as to prevent the accident of the spray board caused by the foot being unable to grasp the board when taking off at sea.

Every time you go into the water, you should carefully check whether the foot rope is broken, even if it is only a small crack, you should not be careless.

Under the unknown force of nature, there is no absolutely safe protection measures, only by checking it tirelessly can each surfing be carried out happily with a certain safety factor.

3. Dress up

In fact, there are no hard and fast rules for dressing up. Some people wear swim trunks or general beach pants. For the pants part, I suggest wearing surf pants. After all, they have elastic ropes.

The mesh has no draft and is actually built for surfing, as the name suggests.

Quick-drying tops can be shirtless or worn with tights (in surfing, tights are also known as jellyfish jackets or rags), which not only reduces the direct contact of your upper body with rough wax blocks, reducing the chance of injury.
