Over a couple of days worked on technique after lessons at Carcons. Nothing happened on the first day, but on the afternoon of the second day I decided to take out Zuma Jay, which I have never been able to ride as it was too small for my experience level. It is also not bouyant enough. I went out without a wetsuit and decided to go straight in for a wave, caught it and was up and riding. This was really the first time I have managed to do this and to do it on this board was amazing for me. Really happy.
The picture shows me a little unstable on the morning session with a larger board. No shots of the afternoon, but I was better - honestly ;)
