We believe that good quality, targeted and easy to understand coaching can quickly accelerate everyone’s surfing progression. And we offer you our 20 years of Australian surf coaching experience plus over 40 years of dedicating our lives to surfing, learning and sharing on incredible Mother Earth to give you relevant surfing knowledge and advice, ample opportunity to practice and perfect new skills, along with a clear plan on how to continue to progress in the future so that you become a confident, skilled and happy surfer.
Prior to your first session, we qualify with you what your surfing level is and what your goals are. We then develop your personalised surf training plan and ensure that your sessions occur in the right surf conditions for you to feel comfortable and to maximise your learnings.
Depending on your surfing level, your coach will either be with you in the water, assisting you in catching waves or they’ll be videoing you and providing feedback and advice to you during and after each session from land.
We focus heavily on teaching you how to read waves so that you can independently catch more waves without a coach assisting you in the future. Using our over 40 years of wave catching knowledge, we help you to understand and connect with the ever changing patterns of how and where the best waves are breaking and how to successfully catch them, as opposed to only seeing random chaos when trying to catch your own waves.
We also adapt aspects of your personalised plan during sessions to provide you with the right knowledge and advice as you perfect your new surfing skills so that you progress your surfing more quickly and safely and ultimately have way more fun in the surf.
Seeing footage of ourselves surfing during video analysis sessions and receiving clear and specific skills advice on how to improve our technique is an extremely effective way to become a better surfer. Most surfers don’t really know what they are doing on a wave or even why they struggle to catch waves in the first place!
Video analysis shows you what you are really doing on a wave (which is often very different to what we imagine we are doing!) and allows us to show you clearly what you need to be doing. Rather than give you vague advice full of surf lingo, we give simple, easy to understand advice on making the right decisions and how to perform specific surfing skills.
Our theory sessions aim to pass onto you our decades of knowledge of everything surfing and also to answer all of those surfing questions that you seek answers for. Some of the topics we cover include:
