This service is aimed at intermediate and advanced surfers who already have some independence in the water and want to improve their surfing level effectively. If you already feel comfortable in the water, this method may be ideal for you. Your coach will record all your sessions and then analyze them with you to help you improve.

Video tools give us the ability to capture, slow down, compare, annotate and measure every movement with remarkable precision. Epic sessions are recorded on video, providing a detailed analysis of technique and significantly improving individual performance. The wave line is refined and enhanced, as well as the entire trajectory of the student as he glides majestically over the waves. This method proves to be not only effective, but truly essential for any surfer.

We’ll focus on fundamental techniques, improving your speed, power and positioning in the line-up. You’ll perfect maneuvers like the bottom-turn, the turns, and master a variety of moves including the top-turn, cutback, roundhouse-cutback, snap, and many more. We’re here to take your surfing to the next level!

Surf Sessions on Video
With this additional service, all your waves will be recorded, allowing you to track your progress. During the lesson, the coach will record every moment and can call you out of the water for real-time corrections, helping you to optimize your technique immediately.
