About Jason

With over three decades of surfing experience (and surf filmmaking), I offer tailored coaching for all skill levels, grounded in a deep understanding of wave dynamics and technique. As a life-long amateur surfer, I blend passion with precision, ensuring a safe, effective, and enjoyable learning journey. I'm an expert longboarder but have also worked with top tier shortboard athletes doing footage capture/analysis for style, power, flow. Whatever your level or goals are, I'm eager to help out and have some fun.
