WITH HOLISTIC SURF

Why follow a level system?

One of the main problems, which we find in the progression of new surfers, is the bombardment of cadence information of a clear order or priority.

Think that even when we enter the water with only one goal in mind, it is not so easy to achieve it. For example; we left with the sole thought of not looking at the board at the time of our standing up.
By the time we get to the lineup, situate ourselves correctly, wait our turn and priority and we manage to catch a wave. All these factors and the anxiety of reaching that moment lead us to a state of mental stress, which ends up clouding us in the precise moment we have to execute the action. And grates! Either you looked at the table again, or you don't even remember or are aware that it has ended last.

Imagine what it would be like if you walked in thinking of 5 things you know you have to change. Or worse yet, with no goal in mind.
That is why following a system of progression levels, in which you prioritize the points to unlock, facilitates and accelerates your progress so significantly.
