Yesterday a local beach surf school which is right next to a cafe/ restaurant organised a social meeting for Surfers and paddle boarders at my nearby break.

Unfortunately conditions were virtually flat, but I got to meet a bunch of people, some of whom I'd seen whilst surfing, but not really talked to.

We started with a group warm up, then people did whatever they wanted, so a few of us got in some paddling practice up and down the beach.

Then I had a go at working on my duck diving technique, although not with much success as the board kept twisting when I couldn't get my rear foot central ☹️

Maybe next time I'll try with my knee and see if that works better.

Anyway, it was a nice get together and they hope to be doing it every couple of weeks 🤙
