Common Questions About the Trip

Is it for beginners?
No. This is Indonesia. It’s absolutely surfable at an intermediate level, but for beginners, not so much unfortunately.
Swell Size?
We expect consistent surf in the 2-4 foot range with a couple pulses of 6foot and potentially above. Perfect conditions to learn better technique… and maybe see a few A-Grade waves FIRING!
Will we be running another one any time soon?
No. I work only with the best technique coaches, so it comes down to scheduling. The earliest we may run another coaching trip will be 2026.
What do you learn?
You learn how to find the stoke in your surfing.  How to assess your own skill & limitations, and develop a strong understanding of surfing technique.  This allows you to more accurately self-coach, and progress, for years to come.
