I want to surf or body surf.?

Question

I don't know how to surf or body surf and would like to do this activity since I have moved close to the beach. I don't have any equipmeent so I don't know what to buy or get. I have watched people on the beach do this and looks fun. Is it possible for a plus sized woman to do this activity?

Answer 1

i would say body surfing it sounds more fun than just regular surfing

Answer 2

you bet your plus sized booty it is,,,,have you ever heard of a beached whale, they do it all the time

Answer 3

Body surf is fun but you can easily get thrown into the sand and hurt yourself. I prefer surfing really. It doesn't take much to learn and you will never forget the first time you catch a wave. Size won't really matter except it will push you into using a longer board. Longboards are the way to go anyways if you are just starting as they are easier to catch waves and are more stable. Before you commit to buy try a surf school where all the equipment will be provided to see if this is really something you want to do. I think that once you try it you will love it.
