Who Is The Session For?
The session is aimed at the intermediate to advanced paddler. If you are still learning, rather sign up for our Surfski Basics Session.
We do require that you can paddle for 60-90 minutes without a break, swim 1km with your gear, and be able to remount in any conditions.
If you are still in the learning phase, please reach out and we can discuss a bespoke workshop aimed at getting you up to speed with basic competency requirements.

Equipment Required:
We recommend using your own equipment, but if you need, we can provide a stable surfski and paddle, leash and PFD.

Who Are Your Coaches?
Michele Eray is a Surfski World Champion, Olympian and World Class Coach who has spent the past few years refining her coaching method to enable her paddlers to learn most effectively.
