点评:My partner and I, and our teens opted to try paddle-boarding on a recent holiday to Perranporth, Cornwall, and so we booked a lesson with Dan at Little Wolf Adventures who is based at the Hotel Meudon, Falmouth.
Upon arriving, Dan and his assistant, Ben, were both really friendly and easy to get along with. Wet suits were available, if wanted. Dan took the time to explain how the lesson was going to work, and talked about the paddleboards, explaining various features and things of importance. We then walked down to the beach and got straight onto the water. As predicted by Dan, our teens got it easily and were up on their feet in no time and me and my partner were a slightly different story.
They got us all moving straight away in a linked follow my leader style, with us all laying down on the boards to get us used to being on the water. Techniques for manoeuvring and getting out of trouble were then demonstrated before leading us out onto the ocean.
Dan and Ben were excellent with all of us, taking particular consideration of my partner, who has a phobia of water and getting submerged (a life jacket was provided for her). Her nervousness was taken into consideration at all times during the lesson and at no time did she feel pressurised into doing anything she didn't feel comfortable doing.
We went to a couple of inaccessible beaches along the coast, generally having fun, and yes, getting wet and taking photos. An impromptu headstand on the board competition between Dan and Ben had one of our teens giving it a go before we all headed back to shore.
The highlight of all of this was Dan getting my partner to stand on the board, despite her fear of falling in. We were all really proud of her, and we all came off the water absolutely buzzing from our experience. We cannot thank Dan and Ben enough for a really amazing morning and we can't wait to return for more on our next holiday.
Whilst being some 40 minutes from Perranporth, the calm sea, stunning location, excellent teaching and really friendly welcome made it well worth the travel so if you fancy trying paddle boarding, you really won't go wrong with Little Wolf Adventures.
翻译:我和我的伴侣以及我们的青少年选择在最近去康沃尔郡佩伦波斯度假时尝试桨板冲浪,因此我们在位于法尔茅斯默东酒店的小狼冒险公司 (Little Wolf Adventures) 与丹 (Dan) 预订了课程。
到达后,丹和他的助手本都非常友好且容易相处。如果需要的话,可以提供潜水服。丹花时间解释了课程将如何进行,并谈论了桨板,解释了各种功能和重要事项。然后我们步行到海滩并直接进入水面。正如丹所预测的那样,我们的青少年很容易就得到了它,并且很快就站起来了,而我和我的伴侣的情况略有不同。
他们让我们所有人都按照我的领导风格立即移动,我们都躺在板上,让我们习惯在水面上。在带领我们出海之前,我们演示了操纵和摆脱困境的技术。
丹和本对我们所有人都很友善,特别考虑到我的伴侣,她有水恐惧症和被淹没的恐惧症(为她提供了救生衣)。在课程中,我们始终考虑到她的紧张情绪,并且她从未感到有压力去做任何她不舒服的事情。
我们去了沿海几个人迹罕至的海滩,通常都很开心,是的,还湿身并拍照。丹和本之间的一场即兴的倒立比赛让我们的一名青少年在我们返回岸边之前尝试了一次。
所有这一切的亮点是丹让我的搭档站在董事会上,尽管她害怕陷入困境。我们都为她感到骄傲,我们都因我们的经历而兴奋不已。我们非常感谢丹和本度过了一个非常美好的早晨,我们迫不及待地想在下一个假期回来享受更多。
虽然距离 Perranporth 约 40 分钟路程,但平静的大海、令人惊叹的位置、出色的教学和真正友好的欢迎使其非常值得一游,因此如果您想尝试桨板冲浪,那么 Little Wolf Adventures 绝对不会错。
