Surf Club on Tour

Our Junior Surf Club has had an excellent year. This is the first year that we have gone right through the winter with it and this commitment is really beginning to pay dividends. The hardest thing for the British surfer is the long cold winter but if you have a few keen mates to surf with then it makes it all a little easier.
We are now regularly getting 30+ kids every Saturday morning which is really pleasing to see. This coming Saturday we will be spreading our wings and heading over to Sennen Surf Club (the oldest surf club in Britain) for a day of waves, competition and bbq's.

Its easy to overlook but surfing different waves is what really accelerates the learning curve in surfing. Just being in a different line-up dealing with waves that break a little bit harder or softer than the ones you are used to teaches you more than a surf coach ever could no matter how hard you are listening.
In September we will be returning the favour and hosting Sennen Surf Club when they come over to us for the rematch. I'll let you know how it goes.
By the way the photo above isn't Sennen but a beach very close by. It doesn't break like that too often but when it does I reckon I need to make the effort, get over there and get working on my own surfing!
