Longboard Coaching

We coach all types of surfers and we ourselves ride all types of boards. We do know that many of you would like to know about longboarding, riding and gliding on 9’00” plus boards and its skills and techniques.

Tim, our director of coaching is an ex National finalist in longboard and we have devised a great coaching system for longboard surfing that works for you no matter what your level of surfing is.

Cross stepping, drop knee turns; nose riding, paddling out, modern longboarding and log riding and many other techniques that make riding a longboard so much fun, are taught here by us.

longboard surfing lessonsWe have a great range of longboards ranging from modern 9’00 mals to 9’4” and 9’6” nose riders to full gliding 10’00” s.

If you have your own longboard that’s 9’00 or 9 + we know what a nightmare they can be to travel with.  So do feel free to use our range instead.

Also we will be able to advise you on longboards you may want to ride in the future and of course we are happy to design or choose them for you.

The coaching relationship with our clients and the high number of return clients we have is one of the great reasons for our success, and of course we are open all year round.

Just tell us, in your inquires, what you want from your longboarding and we will make sure you achieve it..... In Style.

What people say about us

Hi Tim & Gillian,

Big thanks from me too!

It was just the best surf trip I ever had!

Every single day, I was learning something new and that's a great feeling - the carve board session was a real enlightenment to understand what I need to do to improve my style. I've learnt loads & I now have loads of new thoughts to put in practice in the (freezing) water!

It was also great to try loads of different boards & understand better the designs/how the boards work. It has really re-opened my mind to have loads of fun surfing different boards!

And of course, I will always keep some great memories of "magic sessions", like the sunny longboard session on the East coast or paddling out for the dawn sessions with the sky still red!

It was an amazing trip - many thanks again!

If you're coming to London or Woolacombe & need somewhere to crash, don't hesitate to give me a shout!

Take care & have a great Christmas & New Year.
Olivier

Dear Tim,

greetings from Mayo. I wanted to thank you for an amazing experience last month. I came away from my five days in your surf school recharged and inspired, and with an appetite for surfing that will stay with me. I had a surf in Enniscrone on December 26th. It was extremely cold, but the waves were great. I'll be in touch again about buying a board and also about returning for an extended stint as I mentioned.

Happy New Year Tim,
Every good wish,
Martin Dyar
