DESCRIPTION: These lessons are designed for those who have already mastered the basics and are feeling comfortable on the board. This is help to progress to more advanced surfing techniques and movements while at the same time consolidating what has already been learnt.
We once again go over the basics as a quick revision but then move on to mastering and improving the known techniques and, once ready, move on to learning and accomplishing more advanced skills of taking off and riding green waves, traversing a white and green wave and turning the boards in white and green waves.
We use the Carve Board in these sessions as well to improve balance and stability, toe heel pressure and for the more advanced to progress to becoming more dynamic and confident in turning and weighting a board. It is a sensational learning tool for all levels of surfer and an extremely fun toy to play on!
As well as talking about safety issues of surfing, we also spend more time on surfing etiquette as students are beginning to be able to move out the back of the surf so the ‘surfing rules’ become much more important.

- Revision of previous lesson and technical aspects
