-Surf Tour Guide Session:

Each tour will consist of wave checks and wave break downs. We will also teach you where and when to enter and exit the water safely. During this tour you will score the waves you desire and gain valuable tips and information from your guide who has years of experience in surfing the waves on this Island. This tour is a 3 person max.

– Surf Coaching: (For anyone who wants to improve their skills)
– Receive quality, professional surf coaching from one of our Professional Surfers. The main topics covered in our coaching sessions are equipment evaluation, body positioning and technique, surfing maneuvers, ocean knowledge, and surf contest strategy (if desired). This is a private coaching session and includes partial filming. This package is great for any surfer who wants to improve their surfing skills. If possible we recommend at least 3 coaching sessions to fully address and practice the skills being taught.
This is a 3 hour session consisting of checking a couple waves to find the surf spot you and your coach desire, 1 surf coaching session, and 1 after surf video analyzation. Please bring water and a snack as we will take a break mid session.
–Main topics addressed in coaching sessions:
Equipment Evaluation Ensure the boards you are riding are optimal for your weight, ability, conditions, and surfing style. Having the correct equipment is key to maximizing your surfing performance and confidence in all conditions. You will be given valuable insight and understanding to help fine tune your board quiver.
Body Positioning and Technique Proper body posture/positioning and technique can be the most important skill you learn. If you have a good basic surfing foundation the rest will come much easier for you. Advanced maneuvers will come more naturally when you are surfing with the correct body positioning and technique.
Ocean and Wave Knowledge Reading waves is also a basic skill that some surfers struggle with. You will learn about how different swell directions can make waves break differently along the same reef and how to find the best waves in your session.
Surf Contest Strategy The goal? To know the judging criteria, take the skills you have learned from above and apply them to the conditions, and then set a heat strategy so your surfing can coincide with the criteria of the judges. Conditions, criteria, formats, and other factors change from heat to heat so it is important to be well prepared.
Please contact us with any questions! Group packages and multiple session packages available upon request.
