Stuff I learnt from Surfing #7

"When you arrive and want to paddle out from the beach to join a lineup, it is a bad idea to do so if a good wave is coming in"

You are all pumped up and just got in the water, and farther out, you see a dam good wave coming in. If you paddle out, you are almost guaranteed to get in the way of some guy(or guys) who caught that wave.

Stay out of unnecessary conflicts by waiting until the set has cleared up.
