Ok I hope this works. I'm a beginner. This is my first of three sessions at the pool.
I am riding a JS Industries 5"8' 28Ltr Xero on the Cruiser wave. I caught 13 waves, I think there are 7 here.
I had hoped to practise less paddling (achieved but difficult when everyone is yelling at you to paddle, paddle, paddle). I
felt rude for ignoring them. I wanted to practise my oreo squeeze, but my glutes went on holiday, so cobra pose hurt a little without
their support.
My step up was average (clumsy and not as fast as I would like). My posture was poor. My focus ended up being firstly on how to position myself in order
to try to stay on the wave and secondly stay on my board at such a slow speed. In hindsight I should have taken my bigger board, a JSI Sub Xero 5"10' 37Lt .
Anyway, have a laugh, this is officially my starting point on my OMBE journey.
