Sluice 30/08/09

Well today i hit sluice for the first time. Simon, Adam, Ross and I rocked up at about two o'clock, the level was quite low but that suited me so i could get  a feel for the wave the first time.

We dropped straight in and took turns to surf, Me and Adam are just learning to surf, but because the water was so low (the lowest i have ever seen in fact) you couldn't stay on the wave at all it just flushed you out straight away. I didn't capsize every time but most the times when i did i swam which i was quite pissed off about but i was delighted when i rolled up once which showed me i could actually do it, its just a matter of getting used to it.

Anyway I really enjoyed the day and it was a great experience and I hope to head there again soon when the water is right if Simon will put up with me! :)

You'll see from the video i upload later what it was like anyways.

Ta for now,

Sarah
