to want to learn to surf when I am fat and old.

[twinsetandpearls]

Just wondering as I would like to but have a feeling I would be laughed off the beach so should leave it to dd and dp.

I always have a fear as well of trying to hire a suit and not getting one to fit me. I need to stop being a fat whinging lazy cow basically and loose weight.

Am not sure we could go to Bude as it is where my grandma has just died it is still a 3 hour drive as well.

There is a surf school in Bournemouth which is where we were watching them today

twins, you can do this. You have the first and most essential part...the desire. Everything else will follow. Good luck on it and maybe post about your experience? Please?

I will do.

I think they had wet suits to fit everyone.

Do it do it do it, it will make you feel awesome even if you are completely rubbish at surfing! I was never particularly sporty or active as a kid and boy do i regret that now i'm old enough to hurt when I fall over. it's also something great to do as a family, however big or small your family is.

Oh, tsap, do give it a go. I took some lessons in June (Lusty Glaze beach, I think it was), and really enjoyed it. I'm medium-sized (14 or so, but old, if that helps ), the two other people on the class were really really quite big. The wetsuits come in big sizes, no fear - the legs and arms may be too long, but you just roll them up. There was no fuss about anyone being big!

No. God for it! I love surfing.. well bodyboarding.

Ermmm ..'go' for it
