Our department  had a team event and we had the choice to either go surfing, fly large kites or play some beachvolleyball. The weather was good for surfing according to the host so a couple of my colleagues and me decided to try it out. The wet suits give you and awkward feeling when you just strap yourself in/ dress up.

Good call. :) I want to try it out one time as well, though I heard it's more heavy on your arms than legs actually and without strong arms you won't be able to do much.

Yup, you need your arms to paddle and gain some speed before you can start riding a wave. After that you need them to get up, which in a way feels like a push up. The other tricky part is that you should stand up in one go, otherwise you'll be somewhere halfway and in total lack of control over the board. It's good fun and at the moment the sea isn't even cold if you wear a wetsuit.
