Hi, I'm Nic, and I'm standing for surf beginners rep! I joined SurfSoc a year ago when I didn't know anyone and couldn't stand on a surfboard. Now I've found out what a lovely bunch of people they are and have actually learned how to surf a bit! SurfSoc is a great way to meet friends, go on fun trips, and to learn how to surf, all of which I hope to help budding surfers enjoy (I'll leave teaching to the instructors). I'm keen to help out, and I'm a relaxed and friendly fella which would make me ideal for "the 🧘😌chillest role on committee😌🧘".

Other useful skills: First aid certified (apparently useful for approving trips), welfare trained, award winning surfer*, expert at Riptide on ukulele (but I don't own a ukulele), dabble in krav maga (but more likely to injure you by applying first aid)

*winner of the prestigious 'thinks he's a much better surfer than he actually is' award, 2023
