Tandem surfing is a fun and exciting way to surf with a partner. Here's how to transform wave-riding into a team sport.

Good communication skills and compatibility with your teammate are important in any relationship, including a tandem surfing partnership.

Both partners should have similar goals, whether it's just to surf for fun or to compete professionally.

It has been an atypical season of big waves in Europe, to say the least. From autumn to winter, few swells have arrived in the Old Continent.

And those that came did it with huge variability in the reports that complicated the organization of a surf championship that goes from 0 to 100 in 48 hours.

On this occasion, La Vaca Gigante was confirmed just 24 hours in advance and, in retrospect, it can already be said that it has been a successful call.

Fistral Beach is the most popular surfing destination in the United Kingdom. It is located in Newquay, Cornwall, England, and is often named the capital of British surfing.

Fistral Beach is renowned for its consistent surf conditions and is considered to be one of the best surf spots in Europe, attracting hundreds of thousands of surfers every year.

The 600-meter-long beach break is surrounded by a spectacular dune system and golf course and sheltered by two magnificent headlands.

On February 4, 2023, Bethany Hamilton posted a video to her Instagram detailing her thoughts on the World Surf League's (WSL) policy of including transgender women surfers in the women's division of WSL events.

To this day, there is only one transgender woman professional surfer in the world (that has come out, at least), and that is Sasha Jane Lowerson.

According to the policy, transgender women must maintain a testosterone level under 5 nmol/l for at least a year before entering the women's competitive division.

Blake Johnston has set a new Guinness World Record for the longest-ever surf session.

On Thursday, March 16, 2023, the Australian surfer paddled out at Cronulla Beach, New South Wales, at 1 am.

Blake, who lost his father to suicide in 2013, wanted to raise awareness and funds for mental health through the Chumpy Pullin Foundation.

The weekend warriors, as they are often called, are the millions of recreational surfers worldwide who eagerly wait for Saturday to arrive. It's you and me. It's all of us.

Working all week long, we count down the days until we can escape the humdrum of the office and head to the beach for a few hours of much-needed surf therapy.

It's the day we can catch some waves, feel the saltwater spray on our face, and escape our mundane routine.

All surfers are paranoid - that is for sure. Not in a bad way - most of the time - but more in an amusing, funny kind of way.

Constantly worried about missing it, making the wrong calls, about who got what wave, what actually happened in the water, who looked at who a certain way, and who saw who and who said what.

And all the rest.

Denmark is one of the three Scandinavian nations and probably the best for riding a wave on a surfboard.

The Kingdom of Denmark is divided into five main regions:

Surf leash tangles can be frustrating and even dangerous when riding waves, as they can cause you to lose control of your surfboard. Here's how to prevent it from happening.

Leashes are one of the most useful pieces of surfing equipment.

They keep you close to your board and prevent it from hitting fellow surfers, ensure you don't have to swim to the beach to retrieve it, and help you resurface in extreme conditions.

In the heart of the Sahara desert, there lived a young Tuareg girl named Amina.

She was raised by her parents and grandparents, who were nomads and had a deep connection with the land.

Amina spent most of her time with her family, learning the ways of the dunes and how to survive in its harsh conditions.

Sky surfing is an extreme sport that involves riding on a specially designed board while performing aerobatic tricks in the sky during a freefall.

The rider attaches the board to their feet to control speed and direction during the descent before deploying a parachute.

It is considered one of the most exciting and dangerous skydiving disciplines.

Sandbars are temporary sensitive structures. But they can truly transform the landscape and the behavior of near-shore waves. Just ask inquisitive surfers.

John John Florence has never quite been the regular surfing professional who focuses 100 percent of his time on competition and winning heats.

His interests and hobbies go beyond contests, daily training routines, strict diets, and high-performance sports.

Maintaining balance is essential for everyday activities such as walking, standing, and bending over, as well as for more complex movements, such as surfing or skateboarding.

But how do surfers get used to lying on a surfboard, popping up, and riding a wave? And how can you not fall while standing upright on a skateboard?

Balance is a fundamental aspect of human movement that involves the integration of various sensory inputs, including:

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to make a homemade 10-inch single fin for a longboard or funboard.

Commercial surfboard fins are generally expensive, but the truth is that they're hard to make and require a lot of precision technology.

You can always shape it like a board maker, though it can be challenging and time-consuming.

Knowing how tides affect surface waves is crucial for many things related to the ocean.

This includes predicting waves for surfing, making sure boats and ships are safe, managing coastlines, warning about dangerous conditions, and understanding how sediments move around.

It also helps scientists interpret data about the ocean's surface and how it interacts with the air and atmosphere.

Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, California, concluded that offshore wind promotes the creation of barreling waves.

A study published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics confirms the empirical notion that winds blowing from land to ocean help develop perfect-breaking tubular waves.

Falk Feddersen and his team analyzed the patterns and breaking behavior of waves at the Surf Ranch in Lemoore, Central California.
