INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED SESSIONS
Intermediate Surfing Lessons
If you’re already paddling out into the line-up, standing up and catching waves without assistance, it sounds like you’ve already caught the “surfing bug”. Now it is time to “up the amps” a little, and learn how to really cut into a wave with confidence.
Intermediate surfing lessons with Port Macquarie Surf School will cater for the surfers who already know the basics, have their own equipment and want to hone their technique even further. This is especially relevant if you’re planning a special surfing trip and definitely don’t want to waste waves while you’re there.
With personal instruction from our experienced coaches you will learn to surf the best surf break of the day with our intermediate surfing programs. You’ll finish the surfing lesson with all the correct techniques on how to complete basic manoeuvres like bottom turns, top turn and cutbacks. You’ll also be taught how to duck-dive, read a wave, select and catch the right waves and how to stand firmly using your body weight. You’ll learn all this and much more in our intermediate lessons plus you’ll be ready for more advanced manoeuvres like floaters, re-entries and snaps. This is when surfing really starts to become even more fun.
High Performance Surfing
Port Macquarie Surf School regularly holds High Performance surf lessons targeted to advanced surfers who want to compete in surfing events.
Port Macquarie’s setting on the Mid North Coast of NSW is an ideal training area as it boasts a multitude of different breaks and wave types that allow us to tailor to the specific needs of any surfer.
These are elite surfing lessons but they’re not just for locals. We have surfers from all over Australia travelling to Port Macquarie to attend sessions with us.
It’s not all about “in the water” skills either. Our High Performance lessons involve fitness programs and training schedules to prepare your body for the rigors of competition surfing. We also include visual analysis through DVD presentation as a valuable tool for technique correction. Our experienced coaches will even provide mental preparation techniques and heat strategies to really get you in the best competition form possible. High Performance surfers will be set unique programs that will cater to their individual abilities, talents and goals.
