Entering the water

The golden rule: never put the board between you and the oncoming wave. Otherwise you’ll be on the operation table redoing your nose!!! When you walk it is the back hand that holds the Bar, Kite in the front half window, to prevent the Kite from falling. The board is next to you. You hold it by either a rail or under the arm to the wind. As soon as there is enough water, once the first foams have passed, you can start. Watch out for the shorebreak that can break your board in half just like your kite and your self-esteem 😉
