Sufer Girl

This past weekend was my first surf all on my own. The first day, Saturday, it was a bit hard to get up on the board because I had rented a 9'6 longboard. All my lessons have been on 10' longboards and it is amazing how much difference 4 inches can make. I kept nose-diving into the bottom of the ocean, flipping and flying all over. As the day progressed I was getting the hang of the board, but I like my 10'. Sunday I was able to rent a 10' longboard and had a blast. Caught lots of waves, and still wiped out a few times. I need to work on popping up in one motion, i still use my knee as a crutch which is BAD. I just have to keep going out and practice, practice, practice! :)
