Myrtle Beach SC Bodyboarding??

i believe the saying is u got to give respect to get respect

 

I'm the guy who is pushing 60 that you see at springmaid usually in the morning, I respect the surfers and give them lots of room. I have never had any problems. With the small stuff you have no choice but catch the inside. I have found that durning the week is better, no so many kids in the water to run over. If you really want to boogie try Makapuu it will scare the hell out of you. See you Sat

 

hey dont dis 81st we always surf there. There are usually good waves there and not too many tourist we all share waves just dont swim out in front of us. about a month ago we were out in the line up for about a hour when all of the sudden boggie boarders swam out in front of us. we got pretty mad and where talking about how the waves were gonna smash him and that he was pretty dumb for being out there. so he paddled away. we share waves but dont abuse the right. have a good day guys and just share the waves.

 

hey peoples, so ive never been to myrtle beach, OC is my place, i'm 15 and i bodyboard. i not the best, but i do know how to ride correctly. i also am in the process of learning how to surf which is a whole different ball game for me. lol if anyone has any tips on the best/quietest places to go where i wont be bothered, i'd appreciate it.
thanks

 

Etiquette

Every sport has rules. Many rules are unspoken, so allow me to clarify. When I started out surfing 16 years ago I wish someone would have shown me the "right of way". You are more likely to enjoy the sport and your time in the water if you follow the rules. T

here is nothing wrong or aggressive about POLITELY telling someone the rules in the lineup. Don't be the punk that yells at someone for snaking or dropping in. Fun and safety is what is most important.

Please follow this link for surfing etiquette.

Thanks and please pass the word.

cant we all just get along

 

Thanks for the link, good info and pictures. I live in Charleston and surf out at Folly Beach, but we never go to any of the "surf spots". We go to a spot and there is hardly ever other surfers out there and very few people in the water, great place for newbie surfers like myself.
