I've wanted to try it for a while now, and my dad has booked a lesson for me.
I'm a snowboarder, and it took me about a day and a half to learn bog standard basics on that, and i understand that surfing is harder?
I'd just like to know how long it took other so I can work out roughly how much money I need to save for lessons if i enjoy it (:
thanks!
 
After one or two lessons learning the basics, you should be able to pick it up on your own. The rest is up to you; lots of time in the water practicing and talking with other surfers. But be patient with yourself, it takes a while to get pretty good.
