Respect Priority
The surfer closest to the peak has priority — dropping in causes collisions.
Hold Down Training
Practice calm breathing during wipeouts — panic wastes oxygen underwater.
Know Your Limits
Do not paddle into surf beyond your ability — hold-downs are real at size.
Safety Notes
- Never surf alone — always have someone watching.
