Please teach me surfing at SteemFest 2? Okay? :D

Hahaha, you can't believe how many people have started asking if I can teach them there :-D Not kidding: during the past 24 there were at least 5, haha!
Actually, I'm not planning to take my board...

Hahah! Isnt that awesome! You can open the SteemSurfing School! Well I'm sure we'll be able to find some on the beach.. :P

#SteemSurf! I can already see the logo :D Hahaha, nice plan!

Damn right! Lets do it! hahaha

Awesome video! This first time I surfed I didn't have a clue what I was doing and there was a tropical depression off in the Atlantic Ocean. I finally made it out there where the real surfers were. I tried to catch a couple of waves but missed them. Finally I caught on and it swiftly showed me who was boss by throwing me like a rag doll. I was put in the spin cycle for what seemed to be forever and when I came up my surf board I just rented was snapped in half. No one told me I shouldn't have been on a long board in waves that were big enough to make a pipe. ON second thought I shouldn't have been out there at all. Lesson learned.

OMG! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ I'm really glad you got out safe. Something similar happend to me last summer surfing the Maldives. I wasn't prepared for the force Mother Ocean has there. One wave hit me hard and I found myself on the reef a couple of minutes later, cutting my feet on the sharp-edged rocks and damaging my (rented) surfboard accordingly... So yes, I know well how you must have felt then.
Lesson learned. That's it :)
Thanks for stopping by, leaving such a kind feedback and sharing your story!

They ended up charging me $500 for that board. It wasn't fun.
Wow it sounds like you have surfed all over the world!

You must be kidding?!? $500 for THAT board? Wow....
I paid mine with a smile, haha ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ (advantage of being a girl)
There are still a LOT of places where I wanna travel and surf. Next year I'll try Bali.

Yeah I was so pissed and was in an argument with the guy over the surf board. He actually was saying he was going to call the cops. I was like "Don't talk to me like I'm 12 years old. Go ahead and call the cops. This is a civil mater not a criminal mater so the cops aren't going to do anything to resolve this. " It was real dumb. I really do want to actually take lessons and learn how to surf. It has to be amazing to stay up like you do and harness the power of the waves!

Incredible! You are right, that's not a criminal matter.It wasn't even your fault. Mother Ocean should have paid ๐Ÿ˜‰

OMG! Dude you are ripped! Where can I buy a six pack like that?

Great vid! 'I'm single again..' nooo, you didn't.... surf over your ex-bf did you?! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„ Sure! Now you know all the details, haha
Thanks for stopping by & have a great we!

Yes I do! 'Surfing accident' nice cover :p I was rafting today near Utiel, good fun if you don't mind the water! Hope you are having a good weekend too :)

I like the duck dives the best. I'm guessing your at least trilingual.

Me, too!! These underwater sequences are really special. Plus: knowing that it's quite hard to learn how to duck dive seeing these images is like being extra rewarded for it ๐Ÿ˜‰
Currently I speek four languages: German (native), Spanish (almost like native), English and Italian. But I'd love to learn a fifth one, either Portuguese or Russian.

I would think Portuguese would be easier than Russian.

Wow very satisfying. Too bad we don't have that place here. We have lots of beaches but too few sites for surfing. We have only I guess, its in Siargao.

By the way, what camera did you use?

ย 8 years agoย (edited)ย 

It's a GoPro Hero 5. But I need to improve the adjustment regarding the fps - frames per second.
My best friend already called me twice telling me that I am using an inappropriate frame set, but I simply didn't listen hahaha ๐Ÿ˜‰ Next time I'll use a better one. Thing is: when I increase the image quality then I will have less recording time. Currently I can shoot like 2 hours with one battery load. That's perfect for one surfing session. When I have less time to film, then I will have less footage in the end. Not sure if this is the right deal. Well, we'll see. I should give it a try anyways!

Great. Show us that too :)

Du bist echt sexy auf dem Bord...kein wunder das die Boys dir hinterher rennen...du verdrehst ihnen den Kopf....๐Ÿ˜˜ Mach weiter so, meine Liebe ๐Ÿ˜‰
Ich nehme den Post mit an meine Wand ๐Ÿ˜™

Hehe, wie sรผรŸ von Dir meine Liebe ๐Ÿ˜ Und vielen Dank fรผrs Teilen!!!
Habt ein tolles Wochenende mit hoffentlich viel Sonne ๐ŸŒค๏ธ

NAJA, ich muss eigentlich ins Bett, in 4 std klingelt der Wecker...muss fรผr 4 Std nochmal arbeiten...aber dann ist WE mit eine zwei SรผรŸen...wรผnsch dir auch noch ein tolles We....und denk dran, nicht wieder soviel Trinken! Sonst brauchst du wieder zwei drei Tage um fit zu werden...lol...๐Ÿ˜‚

Hahahaha, Danke fรผr den Reminder ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ Ich trink aber eigentlich selten Alkohol - das war ja genau das Problem der Party am letzten Wochenende...
Nun aber ab ins Bett!!!

I want to surf some day. Maybe I'll come see you and you can teach me

Yeah, it would be my pleasure ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
Even though I'm not totally sure if I would be the ideal surfing teacher. We'd rather hire one of these attractive PROs, haha!

We could hire a PRO, that sounds like it could go some interesting directions - LOL

Hahaha ๐Ÿ˜€

PS: BTW your Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese Chicken Pasta (what a name!) is EXACTLY what we'll need after a hard surfing session, so thanks for being well prepared ๐Ÿ˜‰
Thanks for the laughter and have a great weekend, @gringalicious!!! https://steemit.com/food/@gringalicious/butternut-squash-mac-and-cheese-chicken-pasta-food-photo-shoot

Thanks for this awesome post! @surfermarly - i love you!

Langsam - so schnell Love :-)?

True story!

She's back.๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„
My surf queen is back!

Hahaha, here I am ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Welcome surfermarly!

It seems you have there a bit crowded...

Yip today was kind of busy - everybody wanted to get something of the wave cake ๐Ÿ˜‰

Never been surfing. Seems like it would be fun

It definitely is! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Is it difficult to learn?

The younger you are, the merrier.
If you are as old as I am, it'll take you some years ๐Ÿ˜„

Maybe I'll learn some day :D Wot's the hardest part about learning?

I think that depends on every individual. You need to be physically and mentally prepared (well in shape and able to align your focus with many things at the same time), have a good body control and balance, learn to hold your breath (since you will be much time under water) and learn to "read" the waves (the last one is the one that needs most time). To me the "hardest" part was the physical training. My arms were not very well trained when I started and I got tired soon. Now I can paddle during hours.

Nice :D it sounds like something I wouldn't be very good at, at least at first. I guess it takes time to get good at it?

"learn to "read" the waves (the last one is the one that needs most time)"

Have you tried reading Elliott Waves?

wonderful surfing shots.

Thank you, I'm happy you liked it ๐Ÿ˜‰
