Surfing has begun!


My hard work at the gym has paid off. I took surf lessons in San Diego right before Christmas and i wasn't sore muscle-wise at all. It was a really great time. My new fella came to visit for this trip and we camped right on the beach a few miles north of the surf camp. I got up on the board like 20 times the first day with my own method. The second day, I was watching the real surfers catching the big waves, the ones with my multi-step process did not fair as well as the folks who were doing it the correct way (lay flat, do a push up, then jump to your feet and twist 90 degrees) . The second day I tried to focus on doing it correctly, only got up twice. I am definately going to need more practice.

It sounds like you had a great time!
I think you should just do it your way since it sounds like it works better, you're probably on to something!
