| | Surfer A is nearer the shoulder and has right of way. B must give way to A. If B does catch the wave he/she is "dropping-in" on surfer A. NEVER DROP IN! Share waves with those waiting longest, furthest out, furthest inside, closest to peak. |
|
| | Surfer A has right of way. B must give way to A who has already caught the wave. |
|
| | Surfer B is not entitled to catch the wave that has already been caught and being ridden by surfer A. |
|
| | Surfer A, having already caught the wave, has right of way over surfer B. First to their feet on, on the wave. |
|
| | Surfer B’s progress toward the unbroken wall has halted. Surfer A is then entitled to take-off. |
|
| | Surfer A, riding in or in front of the white water toward the unbroken shoulder has right of way. Surfer B must not take-off. |
|
| | Surfer B, attempting to take-off in a broken section of a wave, has no entitlement to the shoulder occupied by surfer A. Surfer B should KOOK OUT and go staight towards the beach. |
|
| | Surfer B wipes out. Surfer A may ONLY then catch the wave. |
|
| Surfer A has right of way on the right hand shoulder while surfer B has right of way on the left hand shoulder. Call out, "left" or "right" as appropriate, communicate. |
|
| Where there is a clearly rideable left and right shoulder, surfer B is not entitled to cross under the peak to the shoulder already occupied by surfer A. |
|
| Surfer A may cross under the peak to the unoccupied right-hander shoulder. In doing so the left hand shoulder will become available for other surfers to catch. |
|
| Both surfers are entitled to take-off and ride the unbroken wave section but neither has right of way over the other one or both must pull off the wave before a collision occurs. Use common sense. |
|
| | Surfer A, riding the wave, should try to avoid surfer B who is either stationary or paddling out. A has priority and B must try to paddle away so as not to interfere with A. |
|
| | Surfer B is paddling towards and inside A. This is a 'Snake' DO NOT SNAKE! |
|
| Surfer B has ducked dived the wave and has thrown the board. NEVER throw your board, if you don't know where it is, it is a danger to you and others. |
