Summer is around the corner and so are big south swells! As per usual, .star has hand picked specific topics for this month that align perfectly with the beginning of the summer season. There’s no better time than summer to introduce yourself or someone else to surfing (Intro Immersion), or to get more comfortable in a crowded lineup (positioning in a crowded lineup), or make sure you can pull off the take off to earn the respect of others (Takeoff Techniques), or to make sure you look like you’ve been surfing for a lifetime (Stances, Styles, and Footwork). Lots of options!
