Although when I take out one of the club's racing kayak trainers, you would think I'm drunk by the way I weave around trying to stay upright and steer at the same time.

The only surfing I did at that age was on a 2x4 affixed with one of my sister's roller skates. Barefoot complete with splinters. It wasn't exactly a wave pipe but that 90 degree sidewalk turn was still a little tricky.
I'm a natural righty too but I shoot a rifle lefty. Not sure what that's about. Seems easier.
On a basic training firing line that M16 ejection port being on the right popped hot brass down the neck of my field jacket. It wasn't pretty to be dancing on a live firing line with a drill sergeant whipping my ass but I'll bet it looked pretty funny. Maybe goofy too, but I digress...
