sometimes in a day, you will only get once chance. \u00a0so when that chance comes, you better deliver. \u00a0for the past 7 years, i’ve been stressing to this student that when i say “GO” you better GO! \u00a0sometimes she goes, and sometimes she doesn’t. when she goes, she learns something regardless if she made it or not. \u00a0but when she doesn’t go, she didn’t learn a thing. \u00a0so recently, she’s been going whether the wave is knee high or 20′. \u00a0and that is making her good…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

this morning was super small. \u00a0maybe waist high at the biggest and very slow. \u00a0we where having fun but nothing special. \u00a0my student happened to be on the outside peak at Bowls when the set of the day came. \u00a0i yelled “GO!!!!” \u00a0 she turned, paddled her hardest, and rode the biggest and best wave of the day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

luckily i had my camera so i started filming. \u00a0she popped up at the perfect time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

knees bent, looking forward, and very calm.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

she made it look pretty easy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

then she starts doing a bottom turn.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

it was a beautiful thing to see.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

as i went over the wave, i saw her turn right and fly down the wave.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

that was the biggest and best wave of the morning. \u00a0that was her golden chance and she took it. \u00a0if she didn’t, she would have probably regretted this for a while. \u00a0but she did so she was smiling in the car all the way home. \u00a0and will probably be smiling in her sleep tonight. \u00a0haha.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
