Shame about the weather

I did the 5 day camp down at Seven Mile Beach, just south of Wollongong. Bus transport provided from Central in Sydney, we arrived at lunchtime got split into groups for lessons and had our first lesson that afternoon. Most people were just about standing on a board by the end of that first lesson. The training board are "soft boards" which are easy to stand on, but not the best for turning on waves etc. Weather was a bit rubbish for mid-december through the rest of the week, so it was chalks he to get towels and swimwear dried between lessons but that's not the camp's fault. Great waves for training on and some bigger waves out the back for those who can paddle hard and want more of a challenge. Friday Funday was great with dress up and the chance to try some of the hardboards that Ripcurl sell.
Social life was a bit hit and miss. Movies play in the communal area every evening. Some people go up there he road to the pub, some go to the beach. But again, the weather limited this a bit.
Overall a great experience and I can now get up on a lot of waves which was the main aim of th camp for me :)
