5.5 good reasons to rent a surfboard during the vacations
For the feeling of freedom
As any surfer will tell you, surfing offers a particularly powerful adrenaline rush. Get on your board, paddle out to catch a wave, then glide across the water as if you were one with the sea... in short, surfing delivers an unforgettable feeling of freedom and euphoria. 🤓
For a connection with nature
What better way to connect with nature and forget about your smartphone than to surf? In the water, we forget everything, listen to the sound of the sea, and let ourselves be carried away by an element infinitely greater than ourselves and so mysterious. 🐚
For physical well-being
Surfing is an all-round physical activity that involves many of the body's muscles. Paddling to catch waves, standing up on the board and maintaining balance all require strength, endurance and coordination. In fact, with regular practice, surfing can even help improve overall fitness, flexibility and coordination! 🏋️
For mental well-being
But surfing isn't just a physical challenge... it's also a real one, requiring concentration, perseverance and patience. After all, it takes time to acquire the skills needed to stand up on the board and catch waves efficiently (or forget the dignified side for the moment, one thing at a time). Overcoming these challenges and progressing in one's practice brings an enormous sense of pride and accomplishment.
For ambience
Community, camaraderie and unpretentious beach grub: surfing is more than a sport, it's a way of life, it's a community. Surfers share a common passion and love of the ocean. Beaches and surf spots become gathering places where these wave lovers share tips, stories and experiences. It's a chance to meet new people, make friends and become part of a vibrant community.
Bonus: because buying is old-fashioned
Why buy when you can rent your surfboard and learn from the best? Frankly, if you only surf a few times a year... on completely different spots, it's not worth breaking the PEL or even bothering with your new board during the trip!
