Surfers ready to move beyond basic reef skills will find this session a perfect opportunity to refine their technique on more dynamic waves. The Cruiser Plus wave offers a longer, slightly steeper face, giving you space and time to develop take-offs, trimming and simple turns under the guidance of experienced instructors.
After arriving, you’ll be fitted with a wetsuit, boots, gloves and a board suitable for your skill level. Instructors begin with a land-based warm-up, reviewing take-off technique, foot placement, and stance adjustments to prepare for faster, longer rides. Clear demonstrations help you visualise the movements before entering the water.
Once on the Cruiser Plus wave, you’ll start practising angled take-offs, learning to position your board correctly to ride the wave’s face with flow. Coaches provide immediate, personalised feedback between attempts, helping you understand subtle body movements that control speed, direction and trimming. Each wave becomes a new opportunity to practise linking movements and maintaining balance.
As the session progresses, attention shifts to linking simple turns, transitioning from rail to rail and improving wave selection. The longer rides give more room to focus on flow, allowing you to experiment with speed, positioning, and timing. Instructors remain close, offering encouragement and corrections, helping surfers gain confidence in more challenging conditions while keeping the experience fun and safe.
