if effects surfing because the wind can either be an onshore or offshore wind this effects the type of waves formed. the wind either blows out the waves and disrupts them making it almost impossible to surf very well or it forms the waves perfectly making great swell.

When snowboarding you are in control (hopefully), you make the decisions as to the incline and obstacles on that incline, ect. When you step onto the back of a horse at least 1/2 of your control goes to another being, the horse. He has a mind of his own, his own agenda, and outweighs you by 100 to 1. So most definitely horseback riding is more dangerous. really you asked that horseback riding DUR!

To make it less slippery. You want to stick to the board when you stand or lie on it. You wax the top of the surfboard with a bar of wax sold at any surf shop. Different waxes are made for different water temperatures so make sure you get the one for your water temperature. A good brand is Mr. Zog's Sex Wax. Get a base coat by making X's on the board starting with one large one to map out how high/low/wide you want the wax to be on the surface. It should be wherever your feet might land and high enough up so your chest lays on it so the board doesn't slide out from under you when you paddle out. After the big X, make lots of smaller X's until the board is covered and then make small circles starting at the top going left to right all the way to the bottom of your X. When you place your hand on the board and slide it up/down, it should grip. Hope this helps. Have fun!

Yes, you can wear a jockstrap with your boardshorts. You can wear jocks under any clothing. For swimming purposes you can purchase "swim" style jockstraps which have a thinner waist band making it easier.

I think the swimmer style jocks are more comfortable, and they can be a good call to wear under your board shorts.

***

Try the new Bike jocks. The waistband is bigger than a swim style jock but smaller than a old style jock. I surf wit it and its good.

****

You can were a jock under anything, including board shorts or you can "free ball" if you want. I would wear a swimmer style jockstrap, the waistband is narrower. Just my preference.

***

Check out helo shorts to wear under boardshorts. I get good support, and they're mad comfortable. Plus they dry out super fast which is clutch.

you can jump up on any type of wave, it all depends on your experience and the type of board you have
