Surfing with Wagner was the best!! Great lessons and made sure we were all set before getting in the water. We all were able to get the hang of it and surf a bit by the end! Was so fun and I highly recommend!

Wagner was a great instructor. He showed my son the proper techniques for body position and balance. My son has some experience already but the encouragement and support this lesson provided helped. My son already wants to go back!
It was such a good experience! The instructor is very knowledgeable and let us practice a ton. Would recommend to anyone and do it again!
