Surf's Up, Wednesday, Period 3

[takesaftermom.livejournal.com]

When the students entered the Danger Shop, they'd find themselves surrounded by a white sandy beach and a calm surf. There were surfboards of varying sizes propped up in the front of the room, where Summer happened to be standing.

"Welcome to Surf's Up," she began, once everyone had arrived. "I'm your teacher, Summer Pitt. You can call me Summer or Miss Pitt, if you prefer. I'm good with either one," she added, smiling.

"Since today's the first class, I thought we could start with introductions and what experience, if any, you've had with surfing. Then we'll pair you up with the right size board in preparation for next week's class and hit the water. If there's anything you'd like to know about the sport, feel free to ask me. We're here to learn how to surf, a little bit about the history of the sport and most of all, to have fun. It is summer, after all."

[Go for it!]

Pick Your Board

Find a handwaved board for next week's class and just have some fun in the water, or on the beach if you prefer not to get in the water this week.

Percy wasn't going to wait to get into the water. He found a board that was good for someone as short as he was his height and hit the water, mostly working on staying on the board and paddling.

Luke was much more apt to get in the water while in the Danger Shop where everything was controlled. He picked a board that looked right for someone as tall as he was and got out into the water.

He seemed to be working more on getting a tan from the fake sun than actual surfing. The board was nice for laying out on.

Kate didn't shy away from the chance to get into the water, and if she needed to pick a board to do it, that's what she'd do.

Seemed like Greg had kept her preferences in mind when he picked classes. This wasn't so bad at all.

Jason picked a board that was good for his short oh god height, and spent his time trying to keep his balance on it while laying down.
