Experienced surfers looking to challenge themselves further can access the full range of Manoeuvres, Manoeuvres+, Barrels, and High Performance waves. This session is designed to help you refine technique, build consistency, and confidently tackle powerful, steep sections while pushing your performance to the next level. With a mix of vertical turns, carving, and tube riding, every wave provides a thrilling opportunity to develop skill and precision.
Sessions begin with a detailed warm-up on punchy, manoeuvre-focused waves to prepare your body and board skills for more powerful surf. Instructors demonstrate techniques for linking turns, executing vertical manoeuvres, and maintaining flow through challenging sections.
Once in the water, you’ll tackle Manoeuvres waves, practising off-the-top turns, carves, and cutbacks. Manoeuvres+ waves allow slightly steeper, faster conditions to test your timing, linking multiple turns, and gaining confidence in more dynamic scenarios.
Barrels provide a thrilling opportunity for experienced surfers to ride hollow, powerful waves. Coaches guide positioning, take-offs, and wave reading to help you navigate shoulder- to head-high sections safely. The session may progress to High Performance waves, where open faces and deeper tubes challenge elite surfers to combine precision, power, and technique for maximum impact and progression.
