WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

A typical first lesson starts with wetsuit fitting. Next is a short talk on the beach covering surf etiquette, wave dynamics and paddling techniques. We then go through some land exercises that simulate moves on the water.

Once in the water your instructor will get you in a balanced position on your board. We will then teach you wave selection and push you into waves until you get your timing down. Depending on your ability and wave size, we will then work on the next progression.

Students who have been through a beginners lesson will generally paddle out with their instructor to work on advanced techniques.
