Beginners
Thinking of going to Sawaii in february and staying for 6 months or more. Always wanted to learn to surf. Are there ANY beginner spots or schools in Sawaii? Have a tough time finding any, most seem to be for experienced only.
Would much appriciate some help.
Thanks/Pelle

Maybe you Connies & whiners need to start looking in the mirror for your perceived problems/hassles. I've been to Savaii & Upolu and scored consistent and a few days of world class waves plus encountered friendly locals, good food & good times. Maybe the problem isn't the places you go or the people you encounter, but YOU!
