I could walk and run and just about kump when I went to my first meet and I left it to late I should have gone the second I could walk in them  :Cbiggrin:

Meeting with others is the best way to get better fast as you see what is possible and how people do it

But we will be here when you think your ready  :Cbiggrin:

Sidmouth. It has large wave breakers, so surfing impossible unless its stormy. And just to break from the norm (and scare the hordes of grannies who descend there) I wanna bock the street up.

Well I know some people about 20 (well, my brothers friends) that live there, but I guess the only club is the Dolphin. Fortunately, since we go to the same hotel every year (its fantastic), we are friends with the manager. We were on his boat one year, and borrowed his kayaks another. (which, with the amount of times we've been there, we basically paid for)
