Steering a V1 in Wind and Swell
Hold your line in cross-wind, read the swell and catch your first bumps.
Once you can paddle comfortably, the ocean starts to push back. This course teaches you to keep your line with the paddle and the rudder, to read wind and swell before you leave the beach, and to start catching small runners downwind.
