Jake helped me get my pop ups, and carves down. Now it’s like second nature. Jake helped give me the confidence to keep my surfing growing.
Jett
Jake was so patient, made me feel safe and secure and got me surfing one my first lesson. So much fun!
Taylr
Had the best time. Jake gave me a lesson on everything I needed to know on getting to my feet and surfing. Such an experience can’t wait to go again.
Tracy
That was the coach I’ve been looking for. Jake Was able to articulate and communicate how and what to do in the ocean that made perfect since. He was able to relate surfing to my previous experiences to give surfing a more familiar feeling.
Stephen
Very clear instructions on what to do and how to execute maneuvers in the most critical part of the wave.
