I know there is a surfer in me waiting to bust out. One problem: I’m terrified of the ocean.
How I did it: Tried it in San Diego during a road trip of the U.S. I knew I wanted to try surfin while I was in the States, so when I saw a flyer concerning surfing instructions, my friend and I grabbed the opportunity.

atinygoat wonders if anyone else noticed the search bar no longer lists people..
When I was 8 or 9, my family took a vacation to Florida and I had the opportunity to go boogie-boarding in the Atlantic Ocean.
I loved it, and ever since I have wanted to do it again and to try surfing.
I am pretty sure that I would not be able to surf successfully, but I at least want to try it.
Taylor Evans is trying her hardest. =)
i want to be a beach babe. B-)
Do it NOW! And don’t use the cold water excuse. I live in oregon and due to the improvments in wet suits, you can’t even tell the water is cold. I am, by traditional standards, an amazing surfer simply because I have a damn amazing time out there regardless of how many, or how little waves I catch.

Vicki Is starting to achieve goals again!
I was born and raised in Southern California. I even lived in San Diego for a while, and yet I have never even tried surfing. This summer I want to at least try it!
carmencita13 needs to get out of town!
Tried surfing for an hour and was able to stand up for a long time around 3x!!! I will definitely do this again =)
I have just tried body boarding in Cornwall and absolutley loved it. It was the best free fun ever, why did no one tell me. I would love to have a go at surfing now. I know I will have to get myself up on the board and that is a bit of a worry. Anyway I have a year to get lots of upper body strenght (I think I have good balance) before I go back down to Cornwall and take my first lessons. Might need to save up for a few lessons!
I finally tried surfing & it was so much fun! I got prepped by learning to catch waves on a boogyboard & then i was pretty much ready to surf, its easier than I thought it would be, though I couldn’t stand up, the whole thing is just a lot different then I’d imagined, but in a good way! It is the hugest rush when you’re riding a wave I couldn’t stop smiling it is one of the best feelings I’ve ever experienced. I hope to surf a lot more.
I’m going to visit my brother this weekend, he has been learning to surf for a few weeks now. I’m not sure how good of a teacher he’ll be, seeing that he can barely to it, but my goal is just to say i’ve surfed, if i can stand up for a few seconds I’ll be happy.
