Ideal if you have never surfed before or are looking to progress beyond the white water. You’ll focus on paddling technique, mastering your pop-up, and confidently riding white-water waves.

Improver (Tier 2):
Suitable for surfers who can paddle out confidently in shoulder-high conditions and catch their own waves. Sessions will focus on wave selection, reading conditions, riding green waves, and introducing basic turns.

Transport (tier 3):
A limited number of bus tickets are available. If you cannot make your own way, please purchase a bus ticket alongside your lesson booking. Meet at 12:30pm at penryn campus bus stop. DO NOT PURCHASE A BUS TICKET WITHOUT PURCHASING A LESSON TICKET FIRST!!!!!

The final location will be confirmed the day before. Please arrive at the designated meeting point by 1:30 pm if you are making your own way there.
