Standing up was the hardest part for me. Going from laying, to standing quickly and not losing my balance... very hard. I think a few more days out there and I will be able to not break something.

It's like riding a bicycle for the first time - once you fall off, you never forget how to fall off.

But then you get better, just like skate boarding, and you learn to love riding waves. That is where the magic and the majesty take over...

I have never tried it but I bet its very hard, I have never been very good at skating or snow boarding, just haven't got the balance for it ...

Boogie board! Enjoy the waves without the hassle of trying to stand up.

I hope you have pics of all this because i'm having a hard time envisioning you on a surf boards.

**CunningStunt** · 09-08-2006, 05:33 AM

hehe - I took a couple of 3 hour lessons, and could stand up. then came all the shit with teh local surfers etc and couldn't be bothered with it.

true surfers will think you're a wimp, but I find it more fun on a boogie board as escorpio says - you just lay on the thing with your fins on, a wave comes along, and off you go. They're made of soft stuff as well, not fibreglass, so they don't slice you open or break bits.

Bodyboarding was always a lot more fun for me.

**Nylz** · 09-08-2006, 05:49 AM

GFY is a surf board too

**GoNe** · 09-08-2006, 05:52 AM

Sounds like a great day.

Seriously though just get back in the saddle and as soon as you been able to really catch your first wave you are gonna be hooked.

Yeah, I should have pointed out that real surfers will laugh you out of the water. I don't care, it's fun without the suffering DWB went through!

yikes keep it gutter DWB

**XRatedX** · 09-08-2006, 06:44 AM

damn dude u got fucked! i got beat up my first time, but only cuts and bruises. my buddy took me out to huntington beach. there was actually a surf competition going on at the time at one part. anyway, the hardest part for me was getting the fuck out there. the damn waves were vicious and kept crashing right on me as i paddled out. i got nowhere until i finally started getting the hang of it. i'm an athletic person and it was tough. the second hardest part was getting up. i got up a couple times that first time. the second time i went was twice as easy cuz it wasn't completely foreign to me and i had some idea of what to actually do.

**OG LennyT** · 09-08-2006, 07:24 AM

You have any lady-boy babes helping you out?

**Aquarius** · 09-08-2006, 07:42 AM

I've always wanted to surf but we don't have big enough waves here.

**Minte** · 09-08-2006, 07:56 AM

I remember that pain vividly.Years ago on my first trip to Hawaii I tried it on the north shore.After I finally figured out how to paddle it in a straight line and get out past the breakers.I sat on the board for quite a while watching these kids surf in..they made it look so easy.
I damn near drowned when I got sucked into the undertow.
Ugly,,glad there weren't video cameras back then!

Today was the first time I got on a surf board... I had my ass handed to me.
