That lesson with Cole was quite good, honestly. The focus on improving my technique was quite helpful, and I feel more confident on the board now. Though I still need to work on timing, I’m hopeful with more practice, I’ll get there. Still, I appreciated the relaxed but attentive vibe Cole creates, which made learning feel natural. If you're into steady progress without the hype, I’d recommend giving it a try.

I'm very uncomfortable with the ocean and Cole's easy going personality made the experience very fun for me. Surfing is something I've been wanting to try and have been afraid, but cole really helped with that!

My family came down to San Diego two years ago and hired Cole for some day lessons. We really enjoyed his coaching style and my kids all had a blast while being kept safe in the water

Cole recently taught during the winter and despite the cold we still had a great time. He gave me tips on not only surfing but how to navigate colder winter conditions.

Being new to shortboarding, I hired Cole to get some advice on technique and foot placement. His experience and advice really helped, even within the first session!

Fantastic first lesson! My son left happy and confident and excited. We will be continuing weekly as he builds his surfing skills in the future.
