Equipment needed for surfing. Sail bottom rope
This is the only thing that can guarantee your life safety when you are engaged in surfing. When you fall into the water, you can use it to find your surfboard. Your surfboard will not be washed back to the shore by the waves or hit other people, so you can have a support at sea, which is generally longer than the surfboard. At present, the foot rope also needs to be designed according to different wave conditions. Generally, double bearings are better than single bearings and are less likely to be entangled.
Equipment needed for surfing II. Wax block
Waxing the surfboard can increase the friction between the surfboard and the human body, so that you can stand more stably on the surfboard and not slip! According to the annual temperature change in Taiwan Province Province, different kinds of wax are divided into base wax, cold water, warm water and tropical water.
Equipment needed for surfing III. clothes
1. Winter suit
Most of them are made of a synthetic rubber (neoprene). If you want to surf when the weather is cold and the waves are good in Taiwan Province Province, you need a winter coat. Different materials, different thicknesses (3mm-5mm) and different lengths have different cold resistance. Short-sleeved ones are lighter, called dwarfs or spring clothes.
2. Wear-resistant clothing rash protection
Even if the water temperature is not cold, surfers are likely to wear anti-wear coats, otherwise it is not very comfortable to rub on the surfboard for a long time. Other benefits of anti-wearing clothes: waterproof, warm and sun protection. A well-fitting anti-wear suit is definitely worth investing.
Equipment needed for surfing. non-slip mat
As mentioned before, if you don't want to wax the whole surfboard, you can paste this thing. Generally, a non-slip pad is attached to the end of the board to better control the board to do fancy movements.
Equipment needed for surfing v. nose
The most easily damaged parts of a surfboard are the board head and the board tail. The nose is a rubber block, which can protect your board head and protect others from being directly injured by your board.
Some surfing is controlled by sails, so a rudder is needed.
Equipment needed for surfing. rudder
Surfboard must use rudder, which is divided into single, three and five pieces. Usually, the long board uses a single large single fin, and other boards use a three-piece three-fin system. In the past two years, there have also been five pieces. Now the patented fin control system (FCS) is mostly used for the rudder, which is convenient for replacement and travel. However, the early Glass-on is also very popular with surfers, and its strength in big waves is better than FCS.
Equipment needed for surfing. Surfboard backpack
Surfboard damage is mostly in the process of handling, and the surfboard bag is to save where you accidentally hit it. There are generally two kinds of board bags, one-piece or two-piece daily bags and up to six-piece travel bags. The protection of travel is relatively thick, preventing airport porters from trampling on our precious wooden boards casually.
Points for attention when surfing.
1. When carrying a surfboard, pay attention to the turning place, put it down gently when on the ground, and cover it with sand when on the sand in strong wind to avoid being blown away by the wind.
2. When you go out to the seaside with a surfboard, the angle of holding the surfboard should be in a straight line. Never put the surfboard in front of your body to prevent the waves from hitting the surfboard and your body.
3. When the surfboard rushes back to the shore from the open sea and the water depth is about 30 cm, please get off the surfboard immediately to avoid the surfboard directly hitting the stone.
4. When the surfboard collides with the waves, never pull the safety rope and surfboard by hand to avoid holding hands.
When surfing, please keep everyone away from the sea at the length of two surfboards.
6. Junior surfers, please pay attention to check the equipment, wax blocks, safety ropes and life jackets before launching, and warm up for 20 minutes before surfing in the sea.
7. The rule of surfing take-off is to be closest to the wave collapse point. His action is to stand up first and the surfer next to him should stop surfing. If you rush down regardless of the willy-nilly, in case of an accident, the surfer will bear all the consequences and liability for compensation.
8. The best wave shape for surfing is the wave that collapses in the middle and pushes towards the slopes on both sides. The most dangerous and worst wave is a row of waves that suddenly collapse. Please go ashore and have a rest at this time.
9. When doing aerobics on the beach, the sea breeze is very strong at this time. Please fasten the safety foot rope quickly. Our bodies should stand in the forefront of the downwind direction to avoid being hurt by our surfboards.
10. If you see jellyfish appearing or being bitten by them while surfing in the sea, please go ashore and have a rest.
1 1. When surfing in the open sea, the surfer closest to the first wave area, if a crazy dog wave covers the whole row from above you, you should quickly throw the surfboard back and dive to hide.
14. Beginners should strengthen hand stroke training, physical training and foot training, and roll forward in the water and hold their breath.
15. Surfing well requires diving skills, high morale, strong physical strength and muscles. Usually, please watch more surfing videos and magazines, surf with surfers, watch more, surf the Internet more, and exchange experiences with good friends to ensure that you become a surfer as soon as possible.
16. When surfing, if you encounter an ocean current pulled out of the sea, just follow the direction of the ocean current and catch the waves. Never throw away the safety rope and swim back with the swimmer. Please lie on the surfboard and wait for help.
