THE ACTIVITIES
SURF
BEGINNERS LEVEL is open to everyone who never surfed before and to those who had some previous contact with the sport, regardless of age, gender or fitness level. We have boards and wetsuits appropriate to each person so that learning is done in an effective, safe and pedagogic way.
We provide all the equipment needed, including surfboard and wetsuit. Any student who carries out activities with us is covered by a personal accidents insurance and also a liability insurance. Each Surfing lesson has approximately a 2 hours duration.
INTERMIDIATE LEVEL is appropriated for those who have already some experience in Surfing and want to evolve to a superior level. After an inicial evaluation by the Head Coach the surfer will join an homogeneous group, surfers must have their own equipment (but if the Instructor sees some specific need the surfer can use a surf school board). These lessons can take place at different spots around Lisbon depending on the forecast and wave conditions.
Sometimes we use video and photo shooting on these lessons for further technical analysis.
In this initial surfing state, the overall objective is to provide a quality education and to engage the child in the context and culture of surfing, on a cheerful and safe environment. The specific goals address the multilateral development which has essentially to do with the adaptation to the aquatic environment and at a later stage by the development of basic motor qualities indispensable for learning the Surfing techniques.
SUP
Stand Up Paddle Surfing have a secular history it just became more popular after 1940 when Surfing Instructors needed to control their students in a more effective way across a wider field of view given the standing position taken on board. SUP is a great activity for water sports enthusiasts.
Can be practiced by anyone, regardless of age or fitness level. We provide boards with plenty of stability and buoyancy which makes it easy, fast, secure and fun learning! Given its versatility can be practiced all year round because it is not dependent on the waves or wind. If practiced in waves the adrenaline and radicalism are present but in calm waters serenity and relaxation are privileged.
EQUIPMENT RENTAL
We provide material resources for those who want to surf but do not have their own equipment. We provide an advisory service so you can buy equipment appropriated to your needs as well as a range of discounts on surfboards and wetsuits with our partners. We Also take care of your surfboard and wetsuit if they need repair.
Conditions for equipment rental:
- All equipment is checked to ensure it is in good condition.
- The customer is personally and financially responsible for the equipment during the rental period.
- The equipment must be returned in good conditions: wetsuit and surfboard washed and cleaned.
- It is necessary to leave an ID card with the Surf Instructor during the rental period.
