Re: psychological aspects to bigger wave riding
I don't think its wanky at all, and i'd love to see what a sport psychologist has to say about it. Big surf makes me feel calmer or i need to be calm to be in big surf, pre surf i like to listen to really slow chilled out music which seems kinda contradicting. The only reasoning i can give this is p...

i learnt on a 5'8 twinnie. it realls depends i think if you already have a feel for catching waves (eg switching from bboarding or bodysrfing) short is way better. long boards are easy to catch waves on but i find in 2ft (what most noobs learn in) they are harder to turn and get trimming. or maybe i...
