Jessica writes “It sounds super corny, but I feel like surfing is the sport I was waiting my whole life to find.  Over the course of a couple years I was introduced to surfing through some friends in grad school. I tried twice in Norcal without much success, then alone in Hawaii, which was terrifying.”
