Your next level, done properly
Take your surfing to the next level
Ready to move past the basics? This is where you build real confidence out the back and sharpen the technique behind it. We focus on positioning, timing and wave selection, then start shaping cleaner turns and your first real maneuvers, with hands-on coaching and instant feedback that adds control, flow and consistency to every wave.
This level is for surfers who can already pop up and ride whitewater and want to move onto green, unbroken waves, or who surf green waves but want to surf them better.

Step by step
How your session works

Theory & warm-up
We start on the beach with a short theory briefing and warm-up, so you know exactly what to work on before you paddle out.

Positioning in the line-up
Out the back, we dial in your positioning: where to sit, how to read the sets and when to paddle, so you are on the best waves of the day.

Working on maneuvers
Wave by wave, your coach helps you find flow, link your turns and sharpen the maneuvers that fit your level.

Debrief & video analysis
If you add video coaching, we film you in the water and watch it back together so you can see exactly what to adjust, and immediately feel the difference.

FAQ
Is this the right level for me?
If you can pop up and ride whitewater, and want to move on to green waves, or you’re already on green waves and want to surf them better, yes, this is for you. Not sure? Send us a short video or describe your last session on WhatsApp and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you offer video analysis?
Yes. We can film your session and review it together afterwards. At this stage it’s one of the fastest ways to improve, because you finally see what your body is actually doing on the wave rather than what it feels like.
Which waves will we surf?
Mainly Medewi’s point break, with the exact section chosen to match your level and the day’s conditions. On some days Sumbul’s beach break or the nearby right-hander are the better call. We always pick the wave that helps you most.
Is the point safe for me?
Yes. Daffa knows every current, rock and section of the point and will only put you where it’s right for your level. We time the tide, choose the entry together and stay close in the water. Safety always comes first.
Is it 1:1 or a group?
Private 1:1 or 1:2 only, never a group. Your coach watches every wave you take, which is exactly what makes the feedback so effective at this stage.
What should I bring?
Swimwear, a towel, sunscreen. We can provide a board and rash guard if you need them.
How long is a session?
Around two hours in the water, plus a short check-in before and video review after. Enough time to try things, adjust and nail them, without running out of arms.
