All Levels

Never surfed? Gnarliest tube rider around? These experiences are designed to provide value for everyone.

1

Beginner

You've never surfed or surfed less than 30-days, you want to learn how to surf green waves, ride sideways and gain more confidence in the water.

2

Intermediate

You are comfortable catching waves. You are testing your limits by trying new surf spots and boards. You are starting to get comfortable duck-diving but haven't fully mastered it. You can angle your surfboard on takeoff and catch waves sideways, you can trim down the wave but still struggle to make a proper turn.

3

Intermediate +

You're hooked. You know how to take off, duck dive, turn & paddle confidently. You want to improve your surf techniques. You are fit enough to spend 4 hours in the water and push the limits on steeper takeoffs. You may have been surfing for years but not enough to progress. You feel stuck and want to step up your game.

4

Advanced

You've been surfing consistently for years. You have an eye for good swells & occasionally find barrels and can throw spray after a snap. You want to deepen your surf techniques and find more flow and power. You are ready to push your surfing to the next level.

The listed surf level is the suggested experience level.
