BEP Ladies Morning

At 9am on Sunday morning the ladies session at BEP was kicking off.  I turned up to find the 10 – 15 regulars but also about 15 – 20 new faces which was brilliant!  It was a hectic session but it was brilliant to see so many new girls wanting to get involved! 

Some were kneeboarding and then stepping it up to an easy-up wakeboard, most were getting up and to the first corner.  A few ladies had been wakeboarding a bit before and were mastering the cable and corner four.  Everyone was trying something new.

Props go out to Sue who was hitting the inside kicker on her toeside, Sharm, Louise and Kathryn who were all over the new rooftop and Ash who was trying raleys!  Of course it wouldn’t have been a ladies morning without some little goodies to give away.  Nadine won the Two Seasons vouchers because at last months chicks session at WakeMK, she took a front edge that left her with a black eye and a swollen lip/face, but this time around she was looking loads more confident on the water and riding around as if nothing had ever happened!  The Nalu Beads prize went to new comer, Connie!  She did really well and quietly just kept getting better and better throughout the two hour session.  Well done ladies!!

Massive well done and thank you to all the girls who have got involved with the Ladies Mornings at BEP over the summer, you guys make it so much fun to coach 🙂 

See you all soon!! xx

Chicks Morning at WakeMK

What a great group of girls Sarah, Chloe and I had for the Chick Session at WakeMK this month!  It was 9am, it was already 17 degrees and the lake was so still you could see the bottom (not that you’d ever want to).  Some of the girls were itching to go and were straight on it, others took a bit of time to clear the sleep out of their eyes, but nothing a few face plants and stacks couldn’t get rid off! 🙂

We had all sorts of levels this week – some were trying to get up for the first time, some could just get round the cable, some were trying the kickers and some were styling on the sliders.  All sorts which we love as it keeps it interesting and fun.

                                                                                                   

Massive big ups go out to Nadine who took a horrendous front edge off the dock which resulted in a black eye and swollen lip, i hope you feel better soon!!  Also to two awesome girls who travelled up to MK by train and taxi all the way from South West London – Alise and Mahvahsee, we hope to see you again!  Everyone tried really hard this week, great to see. 

Of course we had some goodies to give out – it wouldn’t be a ladies morning without them!  Olena won the Wide-A-Wake goodie bag for landing a 180 off the kicker for the first time.  Ellie from WakeMK won the Nalu Bead prize for doing really well as she has only just started riding, and Mahvahsee won the Two Seasons vouchers because she had a few rocky starts, but then nailed it and managed to get round the cable for the first time at MK!  Well done ladies!

Great morning with the girls, thanks for coming and hope to see you at the next one!! x
