I'm here down a cock Avila.

Beach surfing has been a tradition here for almost 100 years.

And so I'm gonna learn some skills and maybe I'll be able Thio stand up on a surfboard.

Pedro, How's it going?

I'm very excited.

Lead the way.

Let's go.

We will start with a small warm up.

Small running.

Your body needs to be warm, but the training scene from rookie?

Yes, I was not expecting this Step 123 You.

That's it with relish on and let's go.

I have some fun.

What E.

Yeah, e So much, huh?

Just get Was he surfer?

It's actually a lot harder than he makes it.

Look, you're out there.

You've got to get on the board Paddle, paddle, paddle.

Wait for the wave.

And then at the right time, there's Pedro on the background, going 123 and me going, Whoa, what's one again?

And I reckon I got up on it for maybe five seconds.

God, perfect.

Amazing.

We're at this beautiful beach where there's people playing volleyball and eating ice cream and sunbathing and kicking a soccer ball around and learning how to surf.

What a incredibly different way to experience Lisbon on this 100 year surfing history just outside of this capital.

This is this whole other side Thio Lisbon, which is just a zoo, authentic, and yet I never even thought about it being here.
