Hi folks
This is just a trial of how to post my first pics (thanks for the tip Oliver). The board is my handshaped Chati, 10'x28"x4". The silver tape in the paddle is to fix a plastic hose in the edge of the paddle to avoid dings in the rail of the board... it doesn´t look good, I reckon, but it works...
The picture is in the lake of my home town (Saquarema/Brazil) where I´m having my first paddles in flat water.
I made a first go on the sea, and tried to ride a wave, but had a hard time trying to balance myself in the little waves... think I still have to train a bit more in the flat...
See you guys
