Maybe you've heard of it, maybe you haven't, but boogie boarding is my
favorite past time at the beach. I can teach you in 4 easy steps.
1) Get yourself a board. They're really easy to find, especially if your
near the beach. They look a little like this:
With different colors and sizes, of course.
2) Wade out into waist deep water. Its best to bring a friend when you do
this. Out in waist deep water, you find a lot of swells. You can just ride right over them without a worry.
3) Hold your board right out in front of you. The curve should be at your
waist, and the Velcro strap should be around your wrist. When ever you wipe
out, the little piece of thred stops your board from going all the way down the beach.
4) Wait for a swell to curve into a wave. A swell is the start of a wave
that is yet to break. Lay on your board right in front of the wave. Start to
kick your feet so that your right in front of the wave. If your fast enough,
the wave will push you along.
And there you go! Remember, you won't get it on your first try!*
