Surfing Lingo - Glossary

Amped
Getting excited about anything surf-related - how you'll feel in the run up to your Ultimate Stag or Ultimate Hen Do.
Kook
A veterans way to describe a beginner or someone who is not very good at surfing. Someone who surfs to try and look cool - who will this be in your group?
