Newby to the forum, stumbled across website whilst trawling thru ebay. Looking to take up the sport but have no idea where to start. Would like lessons first before I start buying equipment (wife's suggestion). Live in Ballina Shire, so if anybody can give me contacts for lessons in nthn nsw and/or goldie it would be appreciated. Have surfed for 38yrs (so have got that sorted) and wakeboarded for 3yrs (getting there) so hopefully I will have a chance of getting up on a board. Cheers

Another suggestion is Glen from Xshore. I drove up from Sydney to Forster to get a lesson from him because he did me such a good deal. Great bloke and has all the safety gear and kiting gear you'll ever need. There are some wicked learning spots at Forster also.

You can contact him at boatbrokerpro.com/ or 0437775483
