I tried once in Waikiki on my own. I do snowboarding and did a little windsurf before. So I thought I could figure it out. I rented a board, it was one of those classic hawaiian style wooden boards which was really really heavy. I was sinking in the water when I was on top of it. I paddled a while then it became impossible to go further. I was submerged in the water all the time and couldn't catch one wave. At some point I hit my feet at a rock at the bottom. That frightened me a bit because I thought i t was all sand at the bottom.
After wrestling for an hour with the board I went back to the shore. But I really want to try one more time, this time with a teacher.
