How to paddle out to the lineup 🏄‍♂️🌊

Ready to leave the white water behind?

Paddling out to the lineup is the moment everything clicks, timing the sets, reading the lulls, and finally sitting in calm water past the break. It’s the skill that helps you turn from beginner into intermediate surfers.

Swipe through our latest blog for the full breakdown: reading sets vs. lulls, saving your energy by walking out, the push-up vs. turtle dive, and what to do if you get caught in the impact zone. Link in bio 📖

Come practice it with us in Costa da Caparica, just 20 from Lisbon, and we’ll get you confidently out the back.
