If the last place you caught a wave was in the bleachers at Wrigley Field, maybe it's time you joined forces with big-wave icon Laird Hamilton and learned how to surf. When he's not giving Playboy readers surfing lessons, Hamilton can be found near his Maui home, taming 40-foot swells while wearing his new clothing line, WONDERWALL (thisiswonderwall.com). |

"Paddle out just beyond the break and wait for a wave with the nose of your board pointed to the horizon." |
| |
"As the wave approaches, turn your board toward shore and paddle so your speed matches the speed of the wave." |
| |
"As you feel the wave propel you, give one last paddle and then push up with your hands and spring to your feet." |
| |
"With your back foot perpendicular to the board and your front foot pointed slightly forward, find your sturdiest upright position and ride the wave in." |
