Learn how to maintain style AND composure when under the heat of the competitive spotlight
Competitive surfing is not for everyone. Performing at one’s best during a short, predetermined time requires focus, drive, and perseverance. While it is often believed that surfing is too subjective to be judged fairly, there are techniques and strategies that can help ensure a competitor victory.

How It Works
There are a number of ways to receive expert coaching and pertinent feedback before, during, and/or after a competition. Depending on the level of coaching desired, the location of the event, whether a webcast is available or not, training can be received in person or virtually through use of a number of applications like WhatsApp, Facebook, and WSL (for live feeds & scores). Those receiving competitive coaching can expect to learn/improve on, technical maneuvers, heat strategy, and understanding the judges.
