To be good, you have to be willing to suck at first. You have to be humble enough to look foolish.
Its a great attribute, but one that many people spend their whole lives avoiding.
Check out this humorous video of me getting worked over in another wing foil session as I try to learn a new skill.
If I expect any of my students to try new things, I have to be willing to do so too. Enjoy the show. :)
