–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.
