The instructional technique is described as simple, proven, and “pretty much fool-proof,” with a very high success rate for getting students up on their first lesson.
Testimonials describe students and families having a great time learning to surf, including first-time surfers getting up on their first lesson and students of different ages enjoying the instruction.
