woohoo! first time surfing :P

[space_freak]

Ok so I just had my first lesson surfing out on LBI. Not the world's greatest waves but definitely a good place to start. I was able to stand up on my first wave So I have to admit its a lot more fun than I thought it would be. One thing I didn't realize was how heavy the softboards were. The first couple of waves I wasn't really noticing the weight but as the lesson went on I started to notice just how quickly my right arm was getting tired from picking up the board to go back deeper into the water when I got close to shore at the end of a run. Definitely something on my list of things to keep trying. So if anyone doesn't mind tolerating a newbie around them when they are on LBI catching some waves this week drop me a line.
