Surfing is a surface water sport. Two major subdivisions within stand-up surfing are longboarding and shortboarding, reflecting differences in surfboard design including surfboard length, and riding style. In tow-in surfing (most often, but not exclusively, associated with big wave surfing), a motorized water vehicle, such as a personal watercraft tows the surfer into the wave front, helping the surfer match a large wave's higher speed, a speed that is generally, but not exclusively a speed that a self-propelled surfer can not match. Surfing-related sports such as paddleboarding and sea kayaking do not require waves, and other derivative sports such as kitesurfing and windsurfing rely primarily on wind for power, yet all of these platforms may also be used to ride waves. Recently with the use of V-drive boats, wake surfing, riding the boat wake has emerged. From Wikipedia under the

They're made wider and thicker so you'll be able to ride a much shorter board and still catch a ton of waves. The shorter length will also make the board a lot more maneuverable.

Lessons are the only sensible way to start surfing, either from a professional instructor, or surfing family or friends who are experienced surfers.There are way too many dangerous people in the water now, who THINK they can surf. Please don't join their ranks.The very last thing the rest of us experienced surfers want is people to take silly on-line advice, and go down to the beach, grab a surfboard, and go out and get in our way. Most people start out best on long boards, but I have seen plenty of surfers start begin with a short board and master it in no time. It just tends to be more difficult.
