Once you’ve got your surfing to where it needs to be, you can book a FREE Consultation with one of our instructors on the best equipment to buy based on your current surfing ability and goals.

Classes To Choose From

Beginners Classes (Option 1)
Beginner classes will focus on all the important fundamentals you should know before hitting the water by yourself E.g. beach safety, body positioning, basic pop up techniques, catching waves in the white water and more. After taking a few classes we highly recommend students do some practise rentals to practise by them selves.

Intermediate Classes (Option 2)
Intermediate classes will focus on riding unbroken waves, how to get through the waves properly, correct positioning to catch unbroken waves, how to turn and ride across the wave, advance pop up techniques and much more! These classes are suitable for students who have taken at least 2-3 beginner classes, had some practise by them selves and are feeling confident with their pop up in white water.

Recommended Lesson Plan

The lessons are progressive so we recommend students take the following lesson plan:

• x3 beginner lessons alongside some practise rentals
• x3 intermediate classes alongside some practise rentals
• Private lessons with our expert instructors to fine tune your surfing further
