This project was developed in the Course of Surf that has as responsible and professor “Paulinho”, Paulo Dolabella. The lessons happen tuesdays and thursdays of 08:00 hs to 10:00 hs, does not exist an age band for its lessons, it teaches since one young person, until a older person during the same lesson, without problems, the lesson is carried through in the beach of “Ipanema”, most of the time in front of the hotel Caesar' s Park, but that depending on the conditions of the sea, it can change its localization, what took me to go in diverse places to attend the lesson, as much as in “Leblon” as in “Arpoador”. “Paulinho” received me very well and with sufficient enthusiasm to be part of the lesson of project, said that it liked the idea very much, and that already it lived deeply it, in other periods of its lesson. During these four lessons that I participated, I observed what it occurred during the lessons, as much, the tasks, as the dialogues, between the professor and the pupils, and of the pupils between itself. And to understand and to know the universe vocabular of the lessons of surf, even though wrote down the majority of the things that were said during the lessons, and in the ending of them, to start to understand better what it was transferred in the lessons, and also to continue with the tasks of the project. Through the word game, the objective phrase was formed: “To relax set the nature with the sport. ” From this phrase, I invented some experiments, called “iscas”, to be able to create something of utility for the lesson. I created twenty “iscas”, of these twenty, I worked only in three, that they had been the ones that the “Paulinho” liked most: Feet of cardboard, cardboard Box, “Canudo” of straw. From these three “iscas”, I started the test of materials, sizes and forms that could come to help in the lesson. I modified they diverse times, until I carried through as “hot and cold” and got two “iscas” as left adopted, I carried through more experimentations of materials, and sizes to still generating more alternative, and that of this skill, I could have the end item to work it. I defined that for lesson, I would create two archetypes, one that it moved with the balance in surf, and the other with in the distance advised of the opening of the legs, in the base of surf. For the balance, I created a species of a snake, made with truck canvas, and total sewn to its return, only with a hole in the way, closed with “Velcro”. And for the advised opening of the legs, I joined two “streps”, with a garrote, that to the intended being, delimited the opening. Project for me, was a chance of a great learning. I learned very much during the lessons, with all the process, since the discovery of new materials, as, with new techniques and discoveries of new solutions for simple things to be solved. The experience that is acquired during and with the end of disciplines, is enormous, as much in the professional life, how much in the social one, and staff. I am thankful to “Paulinho”, for having in such a way helped me throughout the process, and having given to great utility mine “iscas”, what it generated in me, satisfaction.
