Get rough water ready , let's stretch out the mind and body with a day of skill refinement. Lets look at fine tuning braces, low brace turns, stern rudders, sprinting forward. Morning will build from body and boat timing to bracing and post lunch we will work on some rescues and take and easy journey through some bumpy water to see what is going on and how we feel.
Surf & Rough Water "2 Day Circuit" with Danny Mongno
Group communication is such a big part of growing your personal skills so in this new class we will maximize this by keeping the entire group, students and coaches, together for 2 days. Students should have strong beginner to mid range comfort and skills in rough water and the eagerness to work well with others. Skills will grow from launching and landing, group safety and rescues, to boat control in the surf zone all the way to surfing glassy waves and light leadership training.
Sea Kayak Surfing Intro
An introduction to the skills needed to play
safely in the surf, followed by a practice session in small waves. Included
in this class, we cover
how to take advantage of a following sea, setting up to land, riding
the wave and the foam pile. Leaving the beach, stroke timing and basic
tactics for dealing with on-coming waves are also covered. This class is suitable to use for multi day training as your skills and comfort level continue to grow.
Sea Kayak Surfing Intermediate
Join this class if you have some rough water experience, but not much in the sea or breaking waves. Go beyond the basics and have your strokes, boat control and timing fine tuned. You must have reliable roll to attend this course.
Sea Kayak Surfing Advanced
Step it up a bit in this class and go sea kayaking in Tybee Island's famous Triangle. You must have 4 Star skills with a combat
roll and be looking
for something a bit more challenging. Join instructors who spend a lot of time surfing sea kayaks and are willing
to pass along some knowledge. This is going to be one of our most popular
classes. Must have a good comfort level in rough water and be able to self rescue and assist in rescues.
Currents, Surf and Special Tidal Effects
Thursday & Friday
We will have very strong tidal currents and hopefully some good surf and general rough water situations on the North End of Tybee Island. This course is designed to take advantage of the max ebb conditions early in the day and then the rough water as the day progresses. Must have combat roll and excellent self rescue.
