Learning to surf, Broulee and Rosedale, January 2007

First, carry your board to the beach...

First instructions

Warming up

Not bad, after a couple of hours

Up ?

Up...?

Up!

Hey!

Practise, practise, practise

...and practise some more...

Back to the lessons....support teams

There's always that board lifting

Fairly crowded out here!

But keep on going, even when it rains.

Paddling instructions

Oops - there's lots of falling off to do before perfection

Look Mum - no hands! Or board.

Tiring work

Looking good! (And sun at last)

Well, it was looking good...

Success!
