Following my previous post about finding that I suddenly found I could actually do a pop up on dry land, I wanted to see if I could do it on water.

The conditions weren't great (small, messy, short-period windswell) but there were a few waves to catch and, thankfully, after a couple of false starts, I managed this:

Ok, it's not particularly fluid yet and I was doing it on my 8'2, so I was pushing up off the top of my foot, rather than the shin or knee, but it's a start 🙂

And there's a bit of knee-kissing and coffee cup passing too at the end!
