Every time I get off the beach and see children or adults who are trying to surf with their boogie, it really "hurts" to see them trying so hard to catch a wave then see how the wave catches up with them.
Look!!! To surf with a Boogie you must!! really must to have fins,
It's really disheartening without fins, and parents, save your kids this despair and buy them along with a boogie a pair of fins, not only they will finally surf , but it's also much more safe, with fins they will maintain their position and avoid drifting with the currents. fins allow you to reach enough speed to let the wave push you forward.
(As the wave is larger it necessary to reach a greater speed in order to catch it)
