点评:Brilliant surf lesson on Sunday afternoon. The chilly breeze and cloud did nothing to dampen the instructors spirits; despite conditions being more meh than Malibu. I was one of only 2 adults in a mix of kids aged between (ish) 7-13. They were very forgiving of me crashing their surf party, let me play daft warm up games with them and were positively encouraging at my poor attempts to stand up on a board. The instructors were fun, spent equal amounts with everyone and tried hard not to laugh at my repeated star fish impressions.
I had to get out a few minutes early as I’d got very cold. I’d taken my own wetsuit and the 2 young lads back at Surf HQ were great - sorted me a fizzy drink to get some sugar back in and chatted to me. I’d taken my own wetsuit and was told that it was nowhere near as thick as the ones available at no extra cost as part of your lesson. Worth considering if, like me, you have rubbish circulation. I’ll definitely back and (once my body has recovered from round one) I’ll be practising my POP in the meantime !
翻译:周日下午精彩的冲浪课。寒风凛冽,阴云密布,丝毫没有影响教官们的斗志。尽管条件比马里布更无聊。我是 7 至 13 岁之间的孩子中仅有的 2 个成年人之一。他们非常宽容我闯入他们的冲浪派对,让我和他们一起玩愚蠢的热身游戏,并对我在冲浪板上站起来的糟糕尝试给予积极鼓励。教练很有趣,和每个人都花同样的钱,并努力不嘲笑我重复的海星鱼印象。
我不得不提前几分钟出去,因为我觉得很冷。我带了自己的潜水衣,冲浪总部的两个小伙子很棒——给我准备了一杯碳酸饮料,让我补充一些糖分,还和我聊天。我带了自己的潜水服,却被告知它远没有课程中免费提供的潜水服那么厚。如果您像我一样有垃圾循环,那么值得考虑。我一定会回来的(一旦我的身体从第一轮中恢复过来)我会同时练习我的 POP!
