Boards, suits & useful layers

Equipment should make control easier.

Course equipment is included and fitted at the beach. Personal gear is checked before it enters a coached session.

Soft-top boards and wetsuited students during equipment briefing

Included

One less decision at the shoreline.

  • Stable soft-top surfboard matched to the session and participant
  • Board-specific leash in serviceable condition
  • Full wetsuit selected for fit and current water temperature
  • Colored lesson rash vest for group visibility
  • Condition-dependent optional boots; no automatic helmet claim

Board fit

Coaches consider control, buoyancy, reach, carry distance and teaching zone—not height alone.

Personal equipment

Bring it to the pre-session check. Damaged leashes, unsuitable fins or a board you cannot control may stay ashore.

After the session

Return issued kit rinsed and complete. Tell the team about damage rather than hiding it.

Every request is reviewed against age, experience, equipment needs and the forecast close to the session.
