He makes such a good point. I've never surfed in an environment where people were welcoming and cool. It's really bizarre now I think about it.

[@wally9935]

Extremely sad

[@sheldonn6571]

Most breaks can be fairly welcoming if you take the steps to slowly ingratiate yourself and show respect. It’s tough if you don’t grow up in the culture and have someone show you the ropes. It’s kind of the Wild West out there but that’s part of the appeal to a lot of people.

[@شَريفمُحَمَّد-م7ر]

Maybe its because there's a very finite amount of waves

They aren't underground. It's his podcast.

[@naneekad3960]

I just say its underground because it seems this way (hence the quotations). There's just not millions of views/comments like i'd expect with top celebrities being on. I feel this podcast is still ahead of its time

protip: when getting into a wetsuit, first place a plastic grocery bag over your feet and hands, then get into your suit. Your limbs literally slip through the whole wetsuit minimizing the stretching of the suit itself.

[@pwr2al4]

You can also use a little hair conditioner. Works great.

[@lonememe9674]

This was the best thing I've learned. I'm old (for starting to surf) but learned in warm water. My next trip is going to be somewhere less warm and I've heard wetsuits are a bear. I think you just saved me precious effort! hah! Thanks!

[@jonasm3812]

Neistat makes a really good point about the 0-1, or what I call the frustration to pleasure scale. I've been surfing for over 50 years, and grew up surfing a very local private spot, so the fact that I lived there I didn't get harassed (or my dad would've beaten some ass), but lately have had two hip replacements and now having to get those muscles back in order, is like beginning again, and it sucks. Just for the record, I rip for 60.

I can get BMXers or mountain bikers who build their own jumps but it's not like these people are making the waves I'll never understand surfers who attack people for "surfing their territory"

[@johnsterfer5906]

As a mountain biker, I think other mountain bikers only give a shit when you either damage their jumps or show off their jumps to other people that might damage them (like on social media). Everyone's just tryna have fun

[@GARBO96]

@@johnsterfer5906 true I just moved to Santa Cruz a few years ago I was surprised by how few listed trails there are compared to how many actual fully built out trails there are and then somebody at the bike shop told me those trails are built by locals not trail builders and they aren't official but they're much better than some of the trails I've seen that are official in other places

[@JoeMaxFpv]

In the late 80’s I skated for a shop and was a snowboard instructor for years. I moved to San Diego in my late 20’s for three years and surfing was hard but I caught waves in the first week and straight rode. But surfing every day at 7/7 within a few months I was turning and catching point breaks and able to turn off the knuckle. It comes down to foot coordination and understanding a rail. And a good board helps. I still have my al Merrick black beauty. But live in Massachusetts now and haven’t surfed in almost 10 years. It’s just to aggressively shark infested and lousy storm tossed beach breaks. Even Rhodesia island point Judith is good but wicked rocky so not being on your game ends in injury or broken boards.

[@MrPland1992]

Nah, it has always been heavy. The first surfers of the modern era were WW2 veterans. There have always been hard men and enforcers at every line up. Think about a city the size of LA. There are more surfers than there are waves each day. Populated spots will always have conflict.

[@mttec23]

Mountain biking is pretty straight forward. Pedal, climb, descend. Roll over chunky rocks, find the right lines. Kind of the perk about it. 40/50/60 year olds can buy a good mountain bike and have fun on day one. It’s expensive but worth the adventures a bike can take you on (Sedona, Moab, etc..)

[@rustyshackelford7651]

Skateboarding is pretty hard. Like to be decent. Not just roll around on a board. I boarded a bunch when it blew up in the early 2000s and even after years and years could never master a kickflip at my best I might be able to land 1 out of 4 on flat ground. It's a lot of fun tho wish I hadn't stopped.

[@seanyboy07]

Skat boarding is hard but mountain biking is more demanding on your body… especially after a 15 mile course race.

[@NgamissCleo]

There’s a ton of comments about how hostile locals can be. But it’s about safety. Surfing is inherently dangerous. And that danger is magnified when you add a beginner surfer into the mix.

Waves are a limited resource, so that creates some tension. But surfing makes you feel like a child again, and the better you get at it the more like an unchecked 7 year old do you act. Until you are good enough that there are cameras on you with every turn, do most surfers abandon localism-but they always benefit regardless. Not true for all surfers, Carissa just showed us this at the Olympics and you have a few that are true ambassadors of the sport like John John and his family. Slater is most likely one also, but even he gets colored as playing mind games against the other surfers-just because he is so nice (Machado Slater high five is a great example of this). $@($ em, surf anyway. When you get it, there are few things that make you feel best about yourself. Wether it makes you smile endlessly like a child or a big day when it tests you against mother nature and God. Surf anyway, its good for your soul. And consider taking jiu jitsu-just in case, helps your surfing anyway.

[@joshdabuddha]

I say gaining respect in the Ocean by good local surfers, is like going to any local MMA/Boxing gym and gaining respect. You gotta fight to earn the local fighters trust and respect. Surfers respect other surfers who surf good, who understand the locals code and respect safe etiquette of the Ocean. But mostly comes down to your abilities. Kelly, JOB or Medina can get respect at any beach. I can get respect anywhere too, because I'm a ex-champion surfer. There's a lot to know and learn, and it may take years, you can't just rock up at a beach as a beginner and demand respect. You gotta earn that respect. That's the way surfing culture works. Nobody likes kooks who dont know what they're doing either. You earn respect by your efforts.
