Looking for surfing buddy

I am a sophomore male who is looking for someone to surf with whenever time permits. I have always wanted to surf and recently took a surf lesson while I was in Ecuador. Although I fell many times and was not able to stand up, I enjoyed it and would like to pursue it as a hobby. I considered joining the Stanford Surf club but, unfortunately, members must have at least one year of surfing experience. I am looking for a surfing buddy(ies?), preferably someone with experience, so that we can have fun and stay safe while surfing.

I am a strong swimmer and a fast learner (most of the time), so if anyone is interested in surfing and having some fun, please shoot me an email!
