Now that you've
mastered the whitewater foamies and are well-versed in the rules of
surfing, you're ready to catch some real waves.

approaches. You should be reaching full speed as the wave comes
underneath you and lifts you up. The time to stand is when the board
starts to plane on the surface of the water.
Practice, watch
others, ask for advice, and check back here for more updates to the
