Today two of our groups were lucky enough to adventure into the sea. Firstly we were told how to body surf and after mastering the skill we learnt how to properly stand on the board. Everyone crashed and burned at some point, but eventually we got the hang of it and rode some waves dude! Mr Robinson made me put 'dude' 

The weather conditions were perfect letting us catch some huge waves. With the help of my partner I was able to 'shred' some waves, which was extremely fun and it was an amazing experience. I really hope to surf again.

We started in a group and were told about the basic setup of the paddles and kayaks. Then we got into the water and paddled around for a while until we all started capsizing and falling into the lake.

We all got back into our kayaks and raced to the other side of the lake. Ryan, Harvey and I came last, but its the taking part that counts! We all jumped into the lake and swam around. Jarik tried to escape, but he failed.

Once we had all cooled off we paddled back. It was all very tiring, but a nice day overall. The weather was perfect for it and there wasn't much wind.
