Intermediate Course

Target group: at least one week course experience, confident take-off in white water, basic theoretical knowledge

This course follows immediately after the beginner course and is designed to intensify basic skills.   The main aim of this course is to learn how to take off on green waves and ride them on a hard board.

The instructors will give you tips to improve your surfing directly in the water. In the intermediate course you will learn about tides and the history of surfing and board shaping. We will also work with video analysis in this course.

To reach the most suitable spot matching the course level we will be able to drive you in our surfer van to different spots. The course starts on Monday and finishes on Friday and includes 5 hours / day (there are no courses on the weekends). The equipment is also available after class and on the weekends.
