Paddle boarding

Recently I went paddle boarding on Lake Washington.
At first, I thought it was very hard. I couldn't balance. Every time I moved around, the board rocked and it was hard to keep my balance. I almost fell off a few times, but luckily I was able to right the board most of the time. I found it really hard, but I tried standing up a bit. After a while, I was able to stand up and paddle, something that I found pretty hard. I was proud, but not for long, as a big wave knocked me into the water.
After I got confident with the paddle boarding and could stand up and paddle, I started to try new things. First of all, I tried laying on the front of the board and propelling myself with my hands. I actually went pretty fast until my board flipped and I got soaked. I also found that turning was hard this way. Later I tried laying on the back of the board and kicking and swimming, but it still didn't work because the wave pushed the front of the board up and flipped me.
In conclusion, I had a lot of fun paddle boarding and falling into the water and I want to do it again sometime.
