Surf Video Analysis in Medewi, Bali
Ask a surfer what happened on their last wave and you get a feeling. The footage tells you what actually happened. We film your session, watch it back together, and pick one thing to change before you paddle out again.
See it from the outside
The gap between how it feels and what you do
Imagine paddling for a wave, popping up and riding it all the way to the beach — and only realising afterwards that your back foot was in the wrong place, your head was down and your pop-up was slow. You felt that something was off. You could not see what. That gap is the most expensive thing in surfing: you can spend years correcting a problem you do not actually have, because the one you do have is invisible from the inside.
Video analysis means recording your session and going through the footage with a coach who pauses it, points at the frame and shows you exactly what to change. With us it happens daily rather than as a one-off extra, so every review builds on the last — and the clips are yours to keep.
How it works on you
Why your brain needs to see what your body feels
The perception gap
What you feel you are doing and what you are actually doing are rarely the same thing. The footage closes that gap in seconds.
You learn it by seeing it
A movement is far easier to copy than to describe. One look at the frame where it goes wrong does more than any amount of explaining on the beach.
Feedback the same session
Corrections land while the wave is still fresh in your head, not days later when the feeling has gone.
It sticks
Seeing the right movement and then repeating it is how it gets into muscle memory, instead of staying an idea you nod along to.
What it costs
IDR 250.000 per session
Every clip we shoot is yours to keep.
Filmed properly
A film camera with a long, sharp zoom from the beach or the point, close enough to read what your feet and shoulders are doing.
Drone on the right day
When conditions allow it we send the drone up, which is where the shots you actually want to keep come from.
The footage is yours
You leave with the files. No watermark, no portal, nothing to ask for later.
Book it on its own
You do not need to book a coaching session to get filmed. Surf your own session, we film it, and we go through it with you afterwards.

Some example clips from us
A few clips from recent sessions, filmed and cut the same way yours would be.
A common misunderstanding
It is not only for good surfers
Five faults turn up again and again: a pop-up that is slow, staggered or off balance; weight in the wrong place through a turn; eyes down instead of where you want to go; a stiff upper body that kills your flow; and paddling that wastes energy before the wave even arrives. Beginners get the most out of it, because their faults are the largest and the easiest to fix — an advanced surfer might be hunting a few degrees of rotation, a beginner usually finds out that their pop-up has been costing them every wave since day one.

★★★★★ “The video analysis afterwards was especially helpful, because I got even more detailed tips on how to improve my surfing and technique.” (Isabella, Google review)
