David: It’s my favourite sport. It’s fun, but also
difficult. I usually play it with my dad and
my brother. My ball is blue and it’s quite
big. I wear special shoes. I sometimes go
to the cinema after a game.
Gill: I live near the mountains and a big river.
I do this sport in spring or summer with
my family. We wear helmets and special
jackets called ‘lifejackets’. It isn’t easy and
sometimes it’s dangerous because you can
fall in the water!
Sam: I love the sea. I’m good at swimming and
I’m not afraid of big waves. I don’t wear
a helmet to do this sport. I only need a
board. Riding waves is amazing!
