  • @gibsonhanks123 surfing is waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy easier

  • Gibsonhanks 123,

    I'm 57 and decided I had to get into the soup off Newport before it was too late. I contacted a local icon by the name of Paul Hanson. I brought some luggage in the form of a knock out in Santa Cruz in my youth. He worked with me in some splash and giggle sessions and then we went to the outside. I caught my first outside wave and rode it to the beach about three months ago. Agate Beach, Otter Rock and South Jetty are the places.

  • I have been surfing for 25 years and give surf lessons, and kitesurfing lessons. I can tell you first off you bought the wrong board. Unless you are a very small person. A long board works best for learning. The more waves you catch the better you get. You will have a hard time on a 7'4. Look me up lets get you set up with a lesson. I will give you a years worth of information in one lesson.

  • Not that hard.

    Im 14 and Ive surfed washington a few times, im goin oregon this summer, but u pick it up pretty quick ;]

  • I am in Medford Oregon and no longer have my ski boat which I used to wakesurf behind. I thought I might try real surfing and bought myself a nice Russo 7.4. Anyone out there on the Oregon coast up for helping me out as far as finding good spots and helping me through the beggining stages? Nobody I know likes to surf but I love the water. Also I got pretty good wakesurfing but obviously I get pulled up by the rope before I let go and surf the small wake. How hard is it to get up paddling?

  • There are some good spots in Newport, about an hour from corvallis. Agate beach, Otter rock.

  • hey we are movin to oregon. i want to know if there are any surf spots near corvallis??? any help would be great! :)

  • surfers are just a lot nicer in the northwest altogether.

  • True. There are plus and minuses for both.

  • Yes true, it is pretty tough to surf in oregon but its better than having to fight 50+ assholes for a 2 foot piece of s*(t at say Salt Creek and Trestles in SoCal
