Every surfer has seen it… the one guy who paddles straight into the wave without ever looking. It’s frustrating, dangerous, and honestly — one of the easiest mistakes to fix.

I’ve spent years filming surfers and this is one habit that never seems to go away. If you’ve ever wondered what annoys other surfers most, this might be at the top of the list.
