What People Say...

Alexander Gentles 19 - TTRide South Africa 2010

This trip was near perfect- everyday has been better than the one before it, more enjoyable, more thrilling and more fun. My favourite spots were J-Bay, where due to Etiene’s coaching I feel it was the stop where my surfing improved the most. The other was Durban where the vibe is just amazing and I feel my surfing has benefited being here. The trip leaders were calming, friendly and really went beyond the call of duty for us. Great friends, Great fun, Great time!
