With a professional instructor by his side, the little one hugged the surfboard a bit tighter. His eyes fixed on the waves—caught between nervousness and curiosity.

“Relax, we’ll take it slow,” said the instructor.

The first wave came small. He tried to stand, wobbled, then fell into the water. His face popped back up—not crying, but laughing.

Try again. Paddle, get on, stand up. This time he glided a few seconds longer. The wind touched his face, and a proud smile appeared.

That day, it wasn’t just the waves he conquered, but also his own fear. 🌊🏄‍♂️
