That would be Components #1 and #2, the Grip.

And, 1-L #1 and #2, Centered Arc.

And, the Basic and Acquired Motions, 12-5 #1 and #2.

Each introduced, taught and monitored by . . .

A competent Instructor.

Which, of course, most 'surfers' are unwilling or unable to pay for.



I applaud every self-effort to improve and learn, but for a seeker to think that they can reach their true potential all by themselves is a dillusion. The truth is . . .

They cannot.

Who could learn to read and write all by themselves?

And to be frustrated by their own unrealistic expectation is an unnecessary psychological impediment in their lives. Life is difficult and short enough already. Why complicate it with the unrealistic and unattainable?

The great artists of the world have been trained, most for virtually their entire lives. And the majority of these greats -- from the ice to the piano -- can trace their instruction (and its lineage) for many years, if not generatations. In golf, if asked, Jack Nicklaus would state:

"From Morrison to Picard to Grout to me."

That lineage alone spans eighty years.

I have more to say here. Maybe later.

I have plans to see a competent instructor in the near future.
