It is kind of weird. It can be, actually.
Most of the wear and tear comes from the paddle and the drop, but riding longer waves, cutting back and forth, staying crouched for a while....all that can wear you out a bit.
Not sure if you have done much snow skiing, but sometimes when you are simply bombing it downhill on a groomed run, your quads start to burn from being in that crouched position. Same with surfing, but maybe not as bad.
I would think that paddling to catch the first wake, riding that wake for about 15 minutes (I think that is what they said), then turning right around and catching the next wake and riding another 15 minutes....yeah, that would be a workout. But really fun.
