Classification of surfboards
Below 7 feet (excluding 7 feet) is called a shortboard 1 foot equals 30 centimeters.
9 feet (9 feet) becomes a longboard.
7-9 feet called fun board
The orthodox fish is less than 6 feet. It has a wide and thick plate so it has better buoyancy, and its dovetail provides better drive.
The gun specializes in big waves, and SUP (stands up for paddle board)
For beginners, the softboard is undoubtedly the best choice when you are getting started. This board is round and buoyant. It has a layer of foam on the surface and a soft rudder made of rubber to prevent it. Injured.
Surfboard introduction
-Length (Length) - The length from the end of the board to the end of the board (the measurement of the board is in Imperial units). The length is usually the basis for the classification of the board.
-Width (Width) - Usually a wider board has better stability and better narrower flexibility
-Thickness - Thickness is usually the main factor affecting the stroke
-Rail (board edge) - Board edge design has the greatest impact on the board's steering function
-Rocker - Rocker refers to the degree of bending from the bottom of the board to the board. The larger the number of Rockets, the more difficult it is for the board to insert water and the steering is more flexible. However, if the amount of Rocker is too large, steering is likely to occur. Large and difficult to control situations
-Bottom (Bottom) - At present, the design of the bottom of the board is mainly in the shape of Concave (Concave). The so-called Concave is the concave surface of the bottom of the board. When the water passes through Concave, it will raise the speed to increase the speed of the board. ! There is also a design for the bottom of the channel. This type of plate can see several deep and obvious grooves at the bottom of the plate, so that the water flow from the plate head is discharged more quickly from the end of the plate, accelerating. Better but less stable! In addition, there are rare Vee bottom designs in recent years.
-Stringer- Stringer in the middle of the board! Usually called the keel, the main function is to enhance the strength of the board
-Tail (plate tail) - The shape of the tail may be one of the most important factors affecting the board's performance.
Surfboard tail
Pintail tip: The tip and tail plate provides excellent handling and stability of the board. It is the most suitable for large and curly waves! Almost all gun-specific guns (Gun) are designed with this kind of tail. Generally speaking, there are not many opportunities for using such boards.
Round Tail Round Tail: Because the area where the tail of the board touches the wave is larger, small waves can also be played. The design of the round tail makes the wave steering feel smoother.
Roundpin Tail: The characteristics of the tail are between the Pintail and the Roundtail. This type of wave has a good response to waves with a medium size between shoulder and two people.
Squash Tail: This is a relatively common design for short boards. It is simple and neat but slightly stiff.
Swallow Tail Dovetail: Swallow Tail is actually two spiked tails. The area of ​​the tail that contacts the wave surface is larger, so it is a good choice for small waves. The acceleration on the waves is quite good, and the steering flexibility is also excellent
Bat Tail Battails: This is a relatively rare tailplate design, but there have been more recent trends! The Bat tail is basically similar to the Swallowtail, but adds more stability due to an extended midpoint on the tail.
Diamond Tail Diamond Tail: Diamondtail was originally designed to have a soft square tail and maintain its speed. Its characteristics are somewhat between Squashtail and Roundtail.
Surfboard material
Material warfare in surfboard materials for many years is the “EPOXY and fiberglass†war. In general, the types of surfboard materials on the market are divided into these categories:
A. Fiberglass (referred to as PU or POLY)
B. EPOXY (Chinese epoxy is simply AB glue)
C. Plastic (ABS, S-Core)
D. Foam (EVA, PP, PE, EPS)
E. Wood (Old school series)
Characteristics of glass fiber board: elastic; light fastness; medium buoyancy, water in the hole in the board will only stay on the surface
EPOXY board features: light weight; crashworthy; buoyancy is good, the board hole into the water will be the entire board is water
Surfboard shape and verticality
The shape of the head is generally long. The head shape of the long board is semi-circular or semi-circular, and the semi-circular head is flexible when turning. (The more sharp the head is, the more flexible the head is. ).
The flatter board of the board has more contact area with the water surface, so it is more easily driven by the waves, so its speed will be faster, but the steering is less flexible; the more board the board is, the more flexible the board is, But the speed is slower.
About weight
Board weight: A board that is too light only means that it is easy to take, but it is not easy to break the board. The following is a comparison of the size and weight of the board.
6 feet 4 or less: about 3.8KG
7 feet 2 or less: about 4.5KG
7 feet 8 or less: about 5.2KG
8 feet 1 or less: about 5.6KG
8 feet 2 : about 5.9KG
9 feet 0 : Lighter 6.8kg, Standard 7.3kg, Stronger 7.8kg
10 feet: about 7.5KG
11 feet SUP : About 8.5KG
How to choose the right equipment?
If you are a pure surfing beginner, the best way is to ask your surfing friends to borrow a surfboard or rent a piece. If you are a newcomer to surfing, it's best not to think about having a small, stylish surfboard, a very expensive wet suit or other equipment. There are two good reasons. First of all, you may find yourself not falling in love with surfing. Second, for a novice, the right board is often not compact at all.
For beginners, the big board is more appropriate and you can bring as much as you can. Do you understand? It's best to bring a board that is at least 8 feet in length, which is better if it is over 9 feet. It would be better if you could get a bubble texture. Nowadays, in the Chinese market, you can also buy a lot of beautifully long boards.
You don't have to think about surfing to use short boards. A short board is only a category of surfboards, and it can only be used under certain conditions. It is not applicable anywhere. The longboard is a classic surfboard, a traditional style that most surfing enthusiasts have been using for decades. It was only in the 1970s that people designed a short board.
At the beginning of training, the use of a large, flexible board (that is, a practice board) ensures that you can more easily catch the waves, and in the first few days you will continue to fall on the board or be picked up by the board. Using the practice board can avoid injury. . So if you go to the beach, you might as well find a coach to make sure you can use a soft board. This is for your safety considerations. Remember, surfing is not just like you saw in the movie, and you are chasing after waves. Who knows, maybe one day, you really will find yourself a talented extreme surfers. But more often than not, surfing is an enjoyment that allows you to be safe with friends in the ocean and experience the pleasures of the ocean and nature.
Let’s take a look at the words of Duke Kahanamoku, the Hawaiian native who is the originator of modern surfing: “The best surfer is the one who enjoys more When in the water!)."
