Why many intermediates stagnate
At some point, “just surfing more often” is no longer enough. Many get stuck at the same points: too late at the peak, wrong position, bad timing – and the take-off is not consistent. The good news is that this is normal. And this is exactly what can be systematically improved.
What is different in the Intermediate course
This is no longer about “standing somehow”. This is about fine-tuning. We look at the details that bring real progress – calmly, in a structured way and without pressure to perform.
- Spot selection to suit your level
- Positioning in the line-up (where you should sit – and why)
- Timing when paddling
- Stabilize take-off (more constant, smoother, more controlled)
- Video & photo coaching for clear aha moments
- Specific to-dos for your next sessions
Surfing green waves – without the guesswork
Many intermediates say: “I just can’t get into the green wave cleanly.” This is rarely due to power.
Mostly position, timing and eye tracking. When these three things fit together, your surfing changes noticeably.
Suddenly the wave goes under you instead of over you.
