What you will learn
Catch and ride green waves
Surfing from what's called 'the lineup' we'll teach you how to catch green waves and ride the face of the wave. In the lineup, there are also a few written and unwritten rules you need to know, so we'll go through these and much more. In the process, you'll become a better surfer - and have a great time doing it!
Theory
A deeper understanding
Backing up practice with theory is always a great idea, to understand the why behind actions makes it both easier to remember and to adapt.
The lineup
Introduction to the lineup and the written and unwritten rules to follow when surfing in this area.
Surf safety, surf etiquette & priority rules
We cover topics on how to behave in the water, crowd handling, positioning, pecking order, how to fall, and where to paddle back out without being in danger of hurting yourself or others.
Ocean awareness
In this course, you'll no longer only be in the shallows on the inside sandbank but outside in deeper water. Therefore, we'll teach you everything you need to know about ocean safety and factors like rips, tides, waves and weather to ensure your safety in the ocean.
Spot guiding
Throughout the week, the local surf teacher will take you to different spots according to the swell and weather conditions. This means you'll learn what spots work best on different tides, swell- and wind directions, so you can spend your time surfing the best spots at the right times.
Individual coaching
The coach will see what you need to improve and which adjustments are required to take your surfing to the next level.
Surf equipment
There are many types of boards for different kinds of waves, body types and skillsets. During the course, you'll learn more about these. You'll also have the opportunity to try out some different ones.
