Indoor surf lessons on the board rider starting October 9th here in Swansea

Lc_indoor_wave_riding_swanseaYesterday I went surfing on the best wave on offer which happened to be the indoor wave at the LC swansea. I surfed by myself for about 30 mins then the master of the surf machine Tom John came and joined in, during the next 60 minutes we tried out a couple of new boards.  We taught Jason Bradbury from the Gadget show to surf indoors here is the you tube link click here > Indoor surfing with the Gadget show

What a workout, I must have been up and riding for approx 60 minutes, think about that, how many waves would you have to catch to spend 60 minutes up and riding?

Indoor_surfing_academy_swansea My legs gave way in the end and I came away totally stoked with the knowledge that I had improved my skill level on the wave riding machine. We will be in the LC from October the 9th operating on Thursdays and Fridays after school plus Saturday mornings there will be surf coaching sessions with our GSD staff and equipment, all are welcome with sessions available for adults, junior surfing academy and families.

The Fat Face team riders on their 'fat face-ultimate convoy 2008', recently enjoyed a play on the waves see below and Jason from the Gadget show absolutely loved surfing indoors, the show which is due to be on air October time. (Click on image below for full size)

    Oahu, Hawaii.

    • Perfect_righthand_point_peeling_at_lani_
      I love Hawaii, it's that simple. Every wave tests you and your ability. I truly believe that if one is to be a surfer he/she must travel to the home of surfing to sample it's delights at least once.
