Climb onto your board using your hands - from the side - Climb off your board by using your hands to the side - just like when riding a horse. Never jump in front or behind your board - as the board may hit you. Do not fall head first into the water - always try to land on your feet or at least with your hands out in front of you, to break your fall. When riding standing up - jump away and to the side of your board landing on your feet with your hands out in front of you. Break your fall by using your hands to protect your spine and your neck from possible injury. Even though your board is made of a soft material always protect your delicate organs like your face. Whenever you fall off your board awkwardly place your hands over your face, as your eyes are soft tissue and require protection ALWAYS. During your lesson stay alert and keep your eyes and ears open. Use your peripheral vision to avoid collision with others students. Stay alert and keep your eyes on the approaching waves. Stay close to your teacher throughout the lesson. Stay within the breaking wave zone where your teacher is. If a rogue wave comes toward you push your board away to the side and dive under the breaking wave to avoid impact. Remember hands out in front to protect your neck and spine from possible collision with the sand below the surface <-- Previous Lesson Next Lesson --> Have fun and surf safely!
