Ready Or Not, Ride The Wave
When features director Kristin Canning decided to try surfing, she learned more than she expected from the mighty swells.
The ocean freaks me out. Growing up in landlocked lowa, I never learned to swim against a tide, and the sea's sheer size and ominous depth makes me uncomfortable. That fear of open water rushed into my mind when I received an invite to a retreat with SwellWomen, a female-led learn-to-surf program, in Punta de Mita, Mexico. I'd wanted to try the sport, though, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity to get confident in the waves (a literal and figurative sink or-swim moment!). After some trials and wipeouts-and brutal saltwater sinus flushing-I learned to pop up and was riding waves as big as me by the end of the three-day experience.
