What to expect

Get there: Arrive at our trailer at the Spit just 5 min before the lesson, if we are picking you up you need to be at the pick-up location at the time you have been informed.

Get Ready: We really need you to rock up in your swim wear so we can get the class started on time, we will check you in, make sure the crew have all arrived, grab a rashie/ wet suit, board and head down to the beach.

Get Started: This is where you have to listen, we will run through a really important safety brief about the conditions you are surfing in on that day followed by some
techniques to help you get up on the board as easily as possible and maximise
your vertical time. Once we know you have nailed it, its then time to ….

Get Wet: This is what you came for. The instructors will take the group down to the water together, before your big toe goes in, we run through the formation they need you to stay in so everyone gets a great crack at it and the instructors can give you tips. If you follow their expert instruction you should be pretty much standing on your first or second wave.

Get Vertical: The instructors start by pulling you onto the best waves, but it won’t be long before you can pick your own and go for it. Some people learn faster than others, but the instructors are there in the water to help everyone achieve the best they can.

Get Dry: you will be a little salty and sandy so if you want to have a quick rinse off now is the time to nip off quickly to one of the outdoor fresh-water showers and bathrooms and freshen up and get dry. Time to say goodbye to your new mates and if you LOVED it, chat to us about coming back for some more.
