And it was amazing! I had one lesson and stayed out there an hour after my lesson finished. I didn't manage to stand up (except for a nanosecond!), but I still had the most amazing time riding the wave in whilst lying down on the surfboard. I had such a feeling of freedom when I was doing this - like nothing else existed.
I am definitely going to learn to do this properly - I can just imagine how awesome this would be if I could stand up!

Me and my friend Kate took a surf lesson in Cornwall (fistral beach), which lasted about 3 hours, and then we went surfing by ourselves for a few hours.
At the end of the day, I had nearly managed to stand up on the board (but not quite!), so I can't say I have learnt yet! We are going to have some more lessons and practice as much as possible until I can stand up and ride a wave all the way in.

My bother lives by the sea. He surfs, of course, and so does his family. It looks so amazing when I watch them, and I get very jealous of the fun they all have together when they surf on a Saturday morning. I know it is hard work, but I have set my goal to learn to surf, so that I can join in the fun!
It is a bit cold this time of year, so I intend to be able to surf by the end of next summer.
