Surf’s Up! NZ is an adventure set up by surfers for surfers. The team here are
passionate about what we do and have the knowledge and experience to improve
your skills. Surf’s Up! are recognised not only as the leading surf school in the UK
for beginners, improvers and advanced surfers, but more recently as the authority
on elite surf coaching for members of the Junior British team.
Whether you are a complete beginner or confident surfer, our expert coaches can asses
your ability and explain to you how to improve your performance and technique. As the
same coaches will be travelling with the group throughout the NZ trip we can monitor
everyone’s surfing progression at the closest level. We also have limited numbers on the
course, so there is plenty of one on one coaching and no crowded classes.
The majority of your surfing will be documented on video. With video analysis classes
two times per week, along with our unique training programme designed with the help
of top international coach Kelly O’Toole, we believe we can put over two and a half
years on your surfing in 10 weeks.
The coaching team is led by Surf’s Up! instructor Dawsey – a native of the North Island
who has spent his life surfing the very breaks that you’ll be riding. New Zealand National
Level Youth Coach Kelly O’Toole, instructor and trainer of the British Junior Squad, will
be joining the adventure in Coromandel – it doesn’t get any better than that!
Pete and Jane Craske founders of Surf’s Up! and two of the most respected and
experienced operators in the UK surfing industry have personally overseen the
development of Surf’s Up! New Zealand, ensuring the attention to detail and the
highest standards that clients have enjoyed for the past 14 years.
