So a looooong time ago (in 2006) I tried to take a surf class at my community college (got to love living in Cali) and after the first class I had to drop it because of schedule conflicts. I never got in the water.
A couple weekends ago, a friend of mine who is a surfer offered to teach me how to surf. The bad news is that I never got to standing on the board but I did get up on all fours. The good news is that I had a fantastic time and it wore my butt out!
I thought you'd enjoy the pics from that day... Oh yes, hot bathing suit pics..
The waves were beautiful that day. They told swimmers to stay out of the water because of the "flash riptides" and I looked at my friend like, "Are you serious?" and she assured me that we would be fine.
This is after about a million wipe-outs and I'm trying (really hard) to stand on the board.
Anyway - hope y'all consider trying surfing. Except for the water up the nose, it was a ridiculous amount of fun.
