Thanks Pete for a great lesson.

We cut the paddles shorter when we got home.

Now its just a matter of getting out and practising

Didn't Melbourne turn on a bit of warmth after it had been horrendous during the week.
A big thanks to Warwick from RPS the Board Store in Melbourne for his organisational skills and the use of boards and gear. Also Sup Vic for getting behind the clinics.
PT Woody was having a great time encouraging everyone. And DJ came down to offer his encouragement to all.
A good roll up of ladies which was awesome to see.

Everyone will be happy to know I fell in at the end of the last private session and got very wet. (but not to cold).

Thanks to all that came down and attending. Can't wait to return.

Brilliant few days Pete, we have all learnt so much, and look forward to putting it into action. Each clinic and private lesson was choc full of tips and corrections and exercise for improvement that most of us will struggle to retain it all. However I was particularly pleased that we ran out of time in the race clinic to teach anyone, and specifically Warwick Lee, how to draft. Bwahahahahahaha.
