What to expect during this retreat? Surf Techniques, Mental Game & Mindfulness Practice

As usual, we will be practicing the power surf method that is a combination of land based exercices, as well as on the Smoothstar skateboards. Our training is not just physical, but we guide you into stepping up your mental game. We have developed over the years a surf coaching approach that brings light to the limited beliefs preventing us from performing at our best. We’ve also recently added mindfulness meditation to it, to enhance awareness of the mind in and out of the water.

Our surf coaching retreats are aiming at making you a better surfer, but also a better person by bringing awareness into all aspects of body and mind.

You will leave feeling empowered on all levels, with a set of tools to carry on your journey off your surfboard.

The usual schedule

Our daily schedule consists of at least 2 to 4 hours surf a day, body movements, daily video analysis, skateboard practice on Smoothstar carvers, as well as restorative yoga and mindfulness practice. The days are pretty full but you will feel energized at all times!

Waves at this time of the year

There are 5 waves in the bay where we will be staying and picked those dates for being a prime time of the year to surf those waves. Our go-to is a perfect right hander wave peeling over 150 meters with two distincts sections, one being more forgiving than the other and the other one ideal to practice barrel riding.

Our second best bet is a long rippable wall perfect to practice manœuvres. Both those waves are swell magnet and are very consistent.

On the outside of the bay breaks another wave that is said to be the easiest barrel on the planet, a very short right hander ideal to practice backdoor tubes in a safe way.

Finally, 40-minutes boat ride away from where we will be staying can be found two world class waves. Our trip includes boat rides to other World Class Waves such as Treasure Point and Cobra.
